About Us

Base360.ai is building the AI operating system for short-term rental companies. Born from the technology behind The Flex, our platform helps property managers launch, operate, and scale their businesses on AI autopilot.

We're looking for a talented Video Editor to bring our product, founder stories, and brand to life through compelling video.

About The Role

You'll turn raw footage, product recordings, and ambitious ideas into launch films, social content, and ads that capture attention and hold it. This is a hands-on creative role for someone who understands storytelling, pacing, sound, and motion. You'll help shape the concept, find the strongest hook, and take each video through to its final cut. Your work will show short-term rental operators what’s possible with Base360—and tell the story of the people building it.

What You’ll Do

• Edit product launches and brand films that combine storytelling, product demonstrations, and strong visual direction.
• Create founder-led content from interviews, talking-head footage, and behind-the-scenes moments.
• Produce short-form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn, with strong hooks and purposeful pacing.
• Build paid ad creative with variations in openings, messaging, and calls to action.
• Bring the product to life through screen recordings, motion graphics, kinetic typography, and clear visual explanations.
• Own post-production including footage selection, editing, colour grading, sound design, music, captions, and final exports.
• Use AI creative tools to generate supporting visuals, voiceovers, and other assets where they improve the result or speed up production.
• Maintain a consistent visual identity across formats and channels.
• Improve content through performance insights, using retention, watch time, and conversion data to inform future edits.

Who You Are

• You have a strong portfolio that demonstrates storytelling, editing craft, and visual taste.
• You're proficient in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro, with motion design skills in After Effects or an equivalent tool.
• You know how to hook viewers in the first three seconds—and give them a reason to keep watching.
• You can turn a long recording into a concise, compelling story.
• You understand how music, silence, sound effects, and pacing shape emotion.
• You're comfortable using AI tools such as Runway, Kling, Sora, and ElevenLabs as part of your creative workflow.
• You work independently, meet deadlines, and respond well to direct feedback.
• You balance speed with quality and care about the details that make work feel polished.

Experience with SaaS product videos, founder content, documentary storytelling, or paid social ads is a plus.

Why join Base360.ai?

• Help shape the video identity of a growing company from an early stage.
• Work directly with the founder on product launches, storytelling, and building in public.
• Take creative ownership and see your work published across our brand and marketing channels.
• Grow into broader creative leadership, with the opportunity to help build a video team.
• Competitive salary and performance-based incentives.
• Remote working in an ambitious, entrepreneurial team.

Our expectations

We value ownership, direct communication, high standards, and continuous improvement. You'll thrive here if you enjoy taking initiative, experimenting, and pushing your craft.

You Should NOT Join Base360.ai If

• You prefer detailed instructions for every task over taking creative ownership.
• You're looking for a predictable, slow-pace role with little change.
• You struggle with direct feedback, revisions, or testing new approaches.
• You care more about making videos look good than whether they tell a story and deliver results.
• You avoid learning new tools or adapting your creative process.
• You bring ego or office politics instead of collaboration and accountability.
• You aren't motivated to become exceptional at your craft.
