Contract Video Editor (AI-Powered Workflows)

Remote (Latin America and Eastern Europe preferred) · Contract, part-time · 3–4 hours of overlap with US Central Time

About Gate 39

Gate 39 Media is a US-based digital agency working almost exclusively in financial services: trading, investing, advisory, and fintech firms. We build websites, platforms, and marketing programs, and we use AI throughout our work.

The Role

We need a fast, versatile video editor who uses AI as part of their daily workflow. You'll edit interviews, build bumpers, and produce YouTube and social ads, social content, and corporate videos for Gate 39 and our clients.

This isn't only an editing job. We want someone who understands AI skills, agents, and MCP, and who can build agents and automated workflows that make our video production faster and more repeatable.

What You'll Do

• Edit interviews, podcasts, and recorded meetings into polished long-form and short-form pieces
• Create bumpers, intros, outros, and branded motion elements
• Produce ads and cut-downs for YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, and other social platforms
• Edit corporate videos, explainers, and client-facing content
• Use AI tools for editing, transcription, captioning, clip selection, and asset generation
• Design and build AI agents, skills, and MCP-connected workflows that automate repeat production tasks
• Work from footage recorded on Zoom, Riverside, Teams, StreamYard, and similar tools
• Join review calls with our US team and turn feedback around quickly

What We're Looking For

• Strong written and spoken English. You'll take direction on calls and edit English-language content where wording, pacing, and captions matter.
• At least 3–4 hours of daily overlap with US Central Time for calls and quick revisions
• A strong portfolio covering interviews, short-form social, and ads
• Hands-on experience with AI video and editing tools, plus a clear view of where AI helps and where it doesn't
• Working knowledge of AI agents, skills, and MCP, with examples of workflows you've built
• Familiarity with online recording platforms (Zoom, Riverside, and others) and their export quirks
• Speed: 24–48 hour turnaround on short-form, 3–5 business days on longer pieces
• Your own licensed editing software and a reliable, fast internet connection for large file transfers
• Careful handling of confidential client material. You'll sign an NDA and follow our file security practices.
• Individuals or very small teams only. No outsourcing agencies, please.

Nice to Have

• Experience with financial services or other regulated industries
• Experience editing for US audiences and platforms
• Motion graphics skills
• Experience with Claude, Descript, or similar AI-first tools

Details

• Contract, about 20 hours per month to start, with room to grow
• Fully remote. Candidates in Latin America and Eastern Europe are preferred for time-zone overlap.
• Gate 39 owns all deliverables, project files, and workflows created for us
• After a trial period, we're open to a monthly minimum for the right person
• Your portfolio, with links to work you personally edited
• Your hourly rate in USD
• Your time zone and the hours you can overlap with US Central Time
• A short note on one AI workflow or agent you've built for video work: what it did and what it saved you
