Who We're Looking For

We're looking for a highly skilled long-form video editor who can produce polished, professional content for YouTube and podcast distribution.

This role goes beyond basic editing. The ideal candidate understands pacing, storytelling, viewer retention, audio engineering, and how to elevate raw recordings into premium long-form content optimized for both viewing and listening experiences.

You should be comfortable working with podcasts, interviews, mentorship recordings, and speaking engagements — transforming raw footage into clean, engaging, platform-ready content that aligns with brand standards and audience expectations.

The right person is technically strong, detail-oriented, highly organized, and capable of managing multiple projects simultaneously in a fast-moving production environment.

What You'll Own

  • Edit full podcast episodes for YouTube and audio distribution
  • Handle audio cleanup, leveling, noise reduction, music integration, and sound design
  • Add B-roll, lower thirds, chapter markers, intro/outro sequences, and visual elements
  • Edit mentorship sessions, interviews, and speaking engagements for distribution and repurposing
  • Optimize long-form content for YouTube performance, retention, and viewer experience
  • Ensure content meets brand standards for both visual and audio quality
  • Apply feedback quickly and refine edits through internal and client review rounds
  • Collaborate closely with producers and the creative team throughout production workflows

Workflow & Collaboration

  • Receive creative direction from the Marketing Coordinator and Production Lead
  • Submit edits through Frame.io for internal and client review
  • Collaborate with Clara for source organization, asset management, and delivery coordination
  • Maintain organized project files and clear communication across production timelines

What We Need From You

  • Minimum 2–3 years of experience editing long-form video or podcast content
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating polished YouTube or podcast production work
  • High proficiency in Premiere Pro, Audition, Frame.io, or equivalent tools
  • Strong audio engineering skills including balancing, cleanup, and sound optimization
  • Understanding of YouTube best practices for long-form content and retention
  • Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple deadlines simultaneously
  • Experience working with founder-led brands, podcasts, or media companies is a strong plus

Who Thrives Here

This role is best suited for someone who:

  • Cares deeply about production quality and viewer experience
  • Has strong technical editing and audio skills
  • Notices small details others miss
  • Can work quickly while maintaining polish and consistency
  • Enjoys refining raw recordings into premium content
  • Operates well inside fast-moving creative environments
