BIG PICTURE:
We’re looking for a killer short-form editor/producer who doesn’t just cut clips — you tell stories in seconds.If you obsess over retention graphs, replay moments in your head before you sleep, and believe a 30-second video can hit harder than a movie trailer… keep reading.

Why This Role Matters:
Short-form isn’t an afterthought here — it’s the front door.
Your edits will be seen by millions, shape culture, and set the standard for what great vertical storytelling looks like.

HOW YOU’LL SPEND YOUR TIME:

• Turn raw footage into emotion-driven vertical stories (TikTok, Reels, Shorts)
• Build viral hooks in the first 1–3 seconds that stop the scroll
• Shape edits to maximize watch time, retention, and replays
• Add smart, tasteful polish: simple VFX, sound design, music, pacing, color — nothing flashy, everything intentional
• Create multiple edit variations of the same video to test hooks, pacing, and structure
• Study performance daily and edit with analytics in mind, not ego
• Collaborate closely with producers and creatives to level up every post

WHAT YOU HAVE:

• You deeply understand short-form storytelling
• You know how to manufacture emotion quickly — humor, tension, heart, surprise
• You can look at a clip and instantly know what the hook should be
• You understand why people drop off — and how to fix it
• You love experimenting, testing, iterating, and optimizing
• You care more about results than perfection
