About Us

At our core, we’re one team — but we wear many creative hats. You won’t just be managing one content stream; you’ll be helping orchestrate production across multiple brands. From Backdrop.com (event marketing and live activations) to Abacus Brands (award-winning educational toys and experiences), you’ll help steer the ship that drives content across YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and beyond.

It’s a fast-moving, ceative environment where every day feels different. If you thrive in structure but live for creativity, this is your place.

Some of our current channels include:

About The Role

We’re looking for a Video Editor who knows how to craft long-form stories that keep viewers hooked and short-form clips that make people stop scrolling.

You’ll be working with a creative team that’s building high-performing, culture-driven content across multiple channels — from Abacus YouTube to Pixicade TikTok and beyond.

This role blends creative editing, pacing, and retention-driven storytelling with sharp motion graphics and a pulse on what works now.

What You’ll Do

• Edit 1 long-form YouTube video per week (10 minutes)
• Cut multiple short-form videos from each long-form piece for cross-platform distribution (TikTok, Reels, Shorts)
• Craft edits that maximize viewer retention — through elite pacing, sharp storytelling, and retention-driven structure
• Elevate every video with text animation, polished sound design, dynamic motion graphics, and overlays
• Collaborate with producers and the creative team to brainstorm formats, hooks, and thumbnails
• Organize, name, and deliver assets for upload
• Stay ahead of YouTube trends, editing styles, and algorithm shifts

What You Bring

• Proven experience editing high-performing YouTube content (send us examples!)
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro (After Effects and Photoshop are a plus)
• Strong storytelling instincts and a deep understanding of pacing for retention
• Experience designing motion graphics, lower thirds, and title sequences
• Knowledge of YouTube optimization (hooks, intros, pacing, etc.)
• Strong communication, fast turnaround, and attention to detail

The Perks

• Competitive salary + growth potential
• Collaborative, creative culture with full ownership over your edits
• Opportunity to work across multiple brands and creative styles
• Hybrid flexibility and supportive environment — no red tape, no micromanaging
