Job description

Dehradun · 1 to 3 years · Rs. 25,000 to 40,000 per month

Hey! We're hiring a video editor to turn raw adventure footage into reels people book from.

What we're building

bucketlistt.com is a curated marketplace for travel and adventure experiences, starting from Rishikesh and expanding city by city. Alongside it we run OkGhumo, the operating system adventure operators use to run their business. Think of what Zomato and Petpooja did for the food industry, or what BookMyShow did for movies, built ground up for adventure experiences in India.

Why this role, why now

Someone watching a 15-second rafting reel decides in the first 3 seconds whether to keep watching, and in the last 3 whether to book. Short video is how most of our customers discover us.

Our gunpowder

• Founders: Shubham Makhecha, CEO (CA, AIR 36, ex-PwC, ex-Accenture), Nitant Desai, CFO/COO (CA, ex-PwC), and Divyam Shah, CTO (techie, ex-Prepseed)
• VC-backed: we have raised two rounds, close to $1 million in total
• Live in 3 cities, with more than Rs. 20 crores of bookings managed in the last 9 months by a very lean team

Who we're looking for

• Not an a**hole. Arrogance is a deal breaker
• Obsessed with the problem, not the title
• A doer first. You'll shoot on a phone or GoPro when needed, not just edit what you're handed
• Curious enough to study why one reel hit and another flopped
• Comfortable with uncertainty. We're 0 to 1 and things change weekly
• Fits our values: Stupid (ask the obvious questions), Curious, Childish (have fun doing it)

What you'll do

• Edit 4 to 6 short-form videos a week for Instagram, YouTube Shorts and ads, with strong hooks
• Join shoots at activity sites and new destinations
• Cut ad variations for testing with the marketing team, and learn from what performs
• Build a library of reusable footage, templates, captions and sound

Requirements

• Reels you edited that performed, with the numbers to show OR
• Your own page or channel you grew with your edits AND
• 1 to 3 years of experience
• Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut
• Comfort with outdoor shoots, early mornings and travel

Preference

These are not must-haves. Candidates who meet them will get a preference.

• Less than 28 years
• Previous experience at a travel company

This role is not for you if

• You need a week per reel
• You only edit and never want to step out for a shoot
• You copy trends without understanding why they work

What's in it for you

• A blank canvas. No legacy mess, no approvals chain
• Live and work from Dehradun with a small, fun team, and travel to every city we launch (shoot travel covered)
• Pay: Rs. 25,000 to 40,000 per month

Life at a startup

• Travel will be there, lots of it!
• We're a startup, so you'll step out of your comfort zone and do things you've never done before, like:
  • Calling customers
  • Talking to vendors
  • Onboarding new vendors
  • Resolving their issues
• Most of the time you'll be doing the work in your job profile, but you'll also handle tasks from other key areas when they need urgent attention

Location and terms

Dehradun, on-site, full time, 6 days a week (9 am to 6 pm, one weekday off). 2-month probation and 2-month notice period.
