 <li>
 Own clip-farming workflows: identifying moments, shaping hooks, tightening pacing and packaging content for maximum reach.
 </li>
 <li>
 Design and execute motion elements &mdash; titles, lower thirds, light animations and visual emphasis &mdash; primarily in After Effects.
 </li>
 <li>
 Help translate dense or complex journalism into clear, creator-style video that performs on social while maintaining editorial integrity.
 </li>
 <li>
 Write platform-native headlines and captions that increase click-through, retention and sharing.

 <li>
 Collaborate with producers, hosts, and social editors to align clips with daily news priorities and audience strategy.

 <li>
 2+ years of professional video editing experience, with strong social examples. Preferably experience working at a new-media or digital-first media organization (not traditional broadcast).

 Familiarity with analytics tools (YouTube Analytics, CrowdTangle, Sprout, etc.).

 Some exposure to AI tools is a plus.
