Most short-form editors are trapped in volume mills—churning out 50+ generic clips a day with zero creative input, and burning out in 3 months. We expect quality over mindless output, and actually want your creative ideas. If you’re an elite editor tired of being treated like a content factory, keep reading.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Edit short-form reels and podcast clips from raw creator content and interviews, identifying scroll-stopping moments that resonate with target audiences
- Analyze trends in creator niches and propose fresh reel concepts tailored to each model's brand and personality
- Ensure platform compliance (proper framing, audio, age-appropriate content)
- Collaborate with creative team to refine edits based on feedback and achieve viral impact
REQUIREMENTS
- Demonstrated short-form editing skill with a portfolio of approved, published Instagram/TikTok reels showing strong engagement and aesthetic quality (range and coachability weigh more than exact years)
- Strong English (required) — the key language for communication and storytelling; we edit increasingly vlog-style content where English fluency directly shapes the edit. Spanish is a plus, not required.
- Expert-level proficiency in CapCut — experience with DaVinci Resolve or Premiere Pro highly valued; must work on macOS (demonstrates commitment to professional-grade workflow and quality standards)
- Can identify viral moments and execute polished, well-paced edits with strong hooks, clean captions, and purposeful text
- Demonstrates creative ownership and aesthetic vision, plus openness to feedback and direction
