We work hard, have a great time doing it, and we're always pushing to see how far digital storytelling can go!

THE ROLE

We are looking for an assistant editor to join the Airrack team on site when the situation calls for it. You will be a critical part of the post-production workflow. You are the first point of contact for all incoming media and act as a bridge between production, post-production, and creative.

This role requires attention to detail, clear communication, and the ability to think ahead. You're also expected to give feedback to remote editors and troubleshoot issues quickly when they arise.

RESPONSIBILITIES
  • Ingest media from production shoots
  • Track and update the Inventory Sheet
  • Delegate and review tasks for Overseas Assistant Editors
  • Use sync and conversion tools (Syncaila, HandBrake)
  • Apply in-house color label presets in Premiere Pro
  • Strong English comprehension for writing voiceover scripts and subtitles
  • Utilize Notion and Slack for team communication and task management
  • Export and deliver audio STEMS for dubbing
  • Archive completed projects to server upon delivery
