Specialist – Video Production and Editing
Location: Sector‑32, Gurgaon – Full‑time, in‑office role with regular travel to project sites.
Overview
We seek a Specialist in Video Production and Editing who can produce both long‑form content such as podcasts, impact documentaries and product demos, and craft engaging short‑form social videos. You will handle the entire pipeline—from planning, shooting, organising footage, to post‑production including motion graphics, colour grading, sound design, and final export. AI tools must already be embedded in your workflow to improve productivity.
Responsibilities
- Edit full‑length podcasts, product demos, impact documentaries and field recordings into polished, broadcast‑ready content.
- Manage multi‑track timelines – sync audio, incorporate B‑roll, pace interviews, and structure narratives.
- Apply colour grading, noise reduction, and professional sound mixing to meet publication standards.
- Repurpose long‑form content into shorter clips, trailers, and highlight reels for social and digital use.
- Produce high‑volume, high‑quality short‑form videos for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn using raw footage or scripted briefs.
- Stay current with platform trends – aspect ratios, caption styles, hooks, pacing and audio trends to maximise organic reach.
- Work closely with the content team to translate field stories, data points, and impact narratives into shareable visual formats.
- Own end‑to‑end production for social videos: ingest, edit, add captions/graphics, export, and hand‑off ready‑to‑publish files.
- Travel to project sites across various states to shoot video and photo content independently.
- Handle on‑ground logistics: equipment set‑up, framing, lighting, and audio capture in variable field conditions.
- Conduct or assist with on‑camera interviews with students, teachers, and community members.
- Work with variable‑lighting, ambient‑noise footage and bring it up to publication standard in post.
- Create motion graphics for intros, outros, lower‑thirds, data visualisations and animated call‑outs aligned with brand guidelines.
- Design and animate explainer sequences for product demos and campaign videos.
- Produce static and animated visual assets: thumbnails, title cards, infographic overlays, and social creatives.
- Build a library of reusable motion templates and graphic assets to accelerate production.
- Maintain organised file systems for raw footage, project files, and exported assets for easy access.
- Coordinate with field and implementation teams to gather raw video and photo assets from project sites.
- Track and manage a rolling content calendar for video deliverables across all channels.
- Champion continuous experimentation with new ideas, technologies and channels, including AI, to unlock disruptive growth.
Requirements & Qualifications
- 1–3 years of hands‑on experience in video production and editing with a portfolio of both long‑form and short‑form content.
- Strong knowledge of short‑form platforms (Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts) – understanding hooks, pacing, caption placement.
- Comfortable handling multi‑track audio, podcast mixing basics, background noise removal, and sync voice‑overs.
- Prior exposure to EdTech, social impact, NGO, or development sector content is advantageous.
- Proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, CapCut / InShot, AI Video Tools (Descript / Runway / Firefly), and Canva.
- Fast and accurate production style; reputation for high velocity without compromising quality.
- Ownership mindset – seeing each video through from raw footage to final publish.
- Empathy and ethics – handling real students and teachers with sensitivity and dignity.
- Curiosity – staying abreast of creators, production studios, and innovations to incorporate into work.
- Must be 100% in‑office at Gurgaon with regular travel to project sites across states.
What Makes You a Great Fit?
You are a visual storyteller who can identify the difference between a good cut and a great one. You transform shaky phone footage from a village school into a 60‑second reel that stops the scroll, and you already use AI to produce faster. You want to build something meaningful at scale.
