Job description

If you only put clips together and add text, this role is not for you.

We’re looking for someone who understands why people stop scrolling – and how to keep them watching.

This role is about turning ideas into high‑retention educational reels using smart editing, motion, and storytelling. Every frame should serve a purpose.

What You’ll Do

• Edit short‑form content (Reels, Shorts) with strong hooks and pacing.
• Add motion graphics that make complex ideas simple and engaging.
• Use captions, zooms, cuts, and transitions with intent – not noise.
• Translate scripts into visual storytelling that holds attention.
• Iterate quickly based on performance feedback.
• Collaborate closely with content and strategy teams.

What We’re Looking For

• Strong experience in short‑form video editing.
• Clear understanding of retention mechanics (hook, pacing, pattern interrupts).
• Solid motion graphics skills (text animation, visual cues, infographics).
• Proficiency in Premiere Pro / After Effects / CapCut.
• Ability to think like a content strategist, not just an editor.

Must‑Have

• Portfolio of high‑quality reels/short‑form content.
• Clean, modern editing style.
• Speed + attention to detail.

Nice to Have

• Experience with educational / finance / AI / business content.
• Basic storytelling or scripting sense.
• Ability to suggest creative improvements.

What You’ll Get

• Work on content built to scale, not vanity projects.
• High ownership and creative input.
• Fast‑paced environment with real growth.
• Competitive salary.
