• Prepare and adapt videos for different social media platforms, including subtitles, localized on-screen text, safe zones, aspect ratios, and export settings, ensuring consistency with platform requirements and CD PROJEKT RED's branding standards.
• Collaborate closely with Social Media, Community, Brand, and Marketing teams, incorporating feedback and staying up to date with social media trends, editing styles, meme culture, and emerging video formats.

• Ability to independently manage video projects from brief to delivery, work within tight deadlines, and maintain high quality and brand consistency.
• Very good English skills, both written and spoken, for daily collaboration with international teams.
• Genuine passion for video games, social media trends, and internet culture.
