Edversity, part of Rapidev Group of Companies, is looking for a Video Editor to join our content team on-site at our NSTP, H-12, Islamabad office. This is a hands‑on, high‑output role — video editing is the primary and continuous responsibility, not a side task.

Role Overview

We're looking for an editor who can turn raw footage into scroll‑stopping, high‑retention short‑form content, consistently, day after day. You'll own the edit from raw clips to publish‑ready reels — cutting for hook, pace, and meaning, not just assembling clips in order.

• Cut multicam sequences, apply speed ramps, and grade with Lumetri in Premiere Pro
• Add captions, cutouts, and keyframed zoom animations in CapCut

• Design clean sound — music selection, SFX, levels, and mix — for every edit
• Select and integrate B‑roll to support pacing and storytelling
• Cut with a hook‑first structure to maximize retention in the first 1–3 seconds
• Follow dialogue closely and edit for meaning and clarity, not just for cuts on beat

• Collaborate with the content/shooting team to ensure footage supports the intended edit

Must‑Have Skills

• Premiere Pro: multicam editing, speed ramps, Lumetri color
• CapCut: captions, cutouts, keyframed zooms
• DaVinci Resolve: color grading, basic motion graphics titles
• Strong sound design sense — clean audio, mixing, B‑roll integration
• Hook‑first cutting mindset for short‑form/social content
• Strong English comprehension — can follow dialogue accurately and edit for meaning
• Demonstrated awareness of current trends/formats in the relevant content niche
• Ability to consistently deliver 2–3 finished reels per day

Good to Have

• A portfolio or reel showcasing short‑form/social content (Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, TikTok)
• Experience with thumbnail design or basic graphic design (Photoshop/Canva)
• Basic knowledge of platform algorithms (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok) and how they affect editing/pacing decisions
• Experience working with a content calendar or high‑volume production pipeline

What We're Looking For

• Someone who treats speed and quality as equally non‑negotiable
• A self‑starter comfortable working onsite in a fast‑paced, high‑output environment
• Someone who watches short‑form content critically, even outside of work
• Strong attention to detail and consistency across daily output

Requirements

• 1+ years of hands‑on video editing experience
• A portfolio/reel demonstrating short‑form editing skills is required
• Must be able to work onsite full‑time at the NSTP, H‑12, Islamabad office
