About the Role

Golden Hippo, a rapidly growing, tech-forward wellness and lifestyle company, is seeking a talented and motivated Video Editor (Motion Graphics Artist) to join its dynamic creative team. In this role, you’ll be a crucial contributor to the production of high-impact, visually engaging marketing videos that drive real-world results. You’ll take the lead in creating scroll-stopping content that lives across digital and social platforms — including Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.

We’re looking for someone who not only knows how to cut a clean sequence but can also bring stories to life using motion graphics and animation techniques. From conceptual editing to polishing the final product, your work will combine artistry, performance-based strategy, and innovation to support our portfolio of health and wellness brands.

This position is perfect for a detail-oriented visual storyteller who thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative environment and who’s constantly looking to level up their creative game.

What You’ll Be Doing

As a Video Editor with motion graphics expertise, your responsibilities will include:

• Story-Driven Video Editing:
  Transform raw footage into powerful, consumer-facing video content. You’ll edit short-form ads, branded content, product videos, and testimonials while ensuring a smooth narrative flow and top-tier production quality.
• Motion Graphics Design:
  Design and animate motion graphics that elevate video content — from kinetic typography and logo animations to more complex animated compositions. Your work will appear on platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and TikTok.
• Collaboration with Story Producers:
  Work closely with producers, writers, and creative strategists to develop content that aligns with brand goals and converts viewers into customers.
• Creative Optimization:
  Interpret data-driven feedback to refine content quickly. You’ll help test and tweak ads based on performance insights while keeping creative integrity intact.
• Multi-Platform Delivery:
  Ensure your edits and animations are optimized for various formats and screen sizes, while also making sure deliverables are technically sound and meet creative standards.
• Tool Mastery:
  Use top industry tools including Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Media Encoder to produce high-quality work under tight deadlines.
• Trend Tracking & Innovation:
  Stay on top of video trends, editing styles, and animation techniques. You’ll be encouraged to bring fresh ideas to every project and help push creative boundaries.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a self-starter with a keen eye for visual storytelling, excellent design instincts, and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously.

Required Qualifications:

• 3+ years of video editing experience in a professional, commercial, or agency environment
• 2+ years of motion graphics experience, ideally within a digital marketing or creative setting
• A polished portfolio or production reel that showcases your editing skills and motion graphics capabilities (required with application)
• Strong sense of composition, pacing, and storytelling
• Familiarity with creating content optimized for digital platforms, especially social media
• Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, particularly Premiere Pro and After Effects
• Strong organizational skills and media asset management practices
• Ability to meet deadlines and adapt quickly to changing priorities

Preferred (but not required):

• Experience with Cinema 4D, Mograph, or similar 3D animation tools
• Basic understanding of encoding, publishing, and exporting media assets for multi-platform use
• Experience on both Mac and PC systems
• Interest in health, wellness, pet care, or beauty content

Soft Skills That Set You Apart

• You’re a collaborative problem solver who communicates clearly and thrives in a cross-functional team.
• You embrace feedback as fuel and are always looking for ways to improve your craft.
• You’re able to juggle multiple tasks while maintaining attention to detail and creative quality.
• You stay curious, energized by challenges, and are driven by purpose — not just pixels.

We don’t just support your work — we invest in your whole self. Here are just a few of the benefits you’ll enjoy as part of the Golden Hippo family:

• Healthcare Coverage: We cover 100% of premiums for employee-only medical, dental, and vision plans.
• Generous 401(k): We match up to 3.5% of your contributions to help you plan for the future.
• Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP): Share in the success you help create.
• Paid Sick and Mental Health Days: Including 6 annual wellness days, access to mental health programs, and free yoga/meditation classes.
• Tuition Reimbursement & Professional Development: Invest in your education and upskilling through supported programs and mentorship.
• Monthly Bonus Potential: Earn up to two extra weeks of pay each month by meeting or exceeding key performance indicators (KPIs).
• Creative Recognition: Celebrate wins with our “Win of the Week,” spot bonuses, anniversary shout-outs, and more.
• Remote Reimbursements: Receive partial reimbursement for home internet and phone use.
• In-Office Amenities (Woodland Hills, CA): Access to a stocked kitchen and free on-site gym.
• Team Events: Enjoy both virtual and in-person gatherings like holiday parties, happy hours, cooking nights, and more.
• A production/editing reel is required to be considered for this role.
• This role is remote-friendly, though proximity to Woodland Hills, CA is a plus for occasional team meetups or events.
• We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and encourage you to apply even if you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications.
• Golden Hippo does not accept unsolicited applications from recruitment agencies.
