Remote TikTok Video Editor

Bring Stories to Life Through Short-Form Impact

Can you turn trending sounds into unforgettable moments? If TikTok is your creative playground, we want your vision, timing, and storytelling to shape our brand's social voice. We’re building a visual-first strategy where content doesn’t just entertain—it converts, connects, and sticks. This isn’t about churning out edits. It’s about crafting narratives that spark curiosity and earn loyalty one swipe at a time.

What You'll Help Us Create

Scroll-Stopping Edits That Resonate

Your videos won’t just fill a feed—they’ll lead it. Whether it’s a fast-paced product showcase, a relatable skit, or a behind-the-scenes glimpse, you’ll shape content that keeps viewers hooked past the 3-second drop-off. Our audience spans Gen Z to millennial creators, side-hustlers, and professionals craving substance with spark. Every cut, caption, and transition will carry strategic intent.

Audience-Centric Storytelling

You'll tune into the algorithm, but never let it dictate the soul of your content. Instead, you’ll build emotional arcs into 15 to 60 seconds—using trends as tools, not templates. You’ll partner with our brand strategist and creative director to turn briefs into scroll-worthy storytelling. Your impact? Measurable boosts in engagement, shares, and conversions.

The Work You’ll Do

Collaborate With Multi-Disciplinary Teams

You’ll partner with product marketers, brand designers, and user researchers to bring campaigns to life. From concept to publication, your work will reflect collaborative insight and data-backed decisions.

Shape a Consistent Visual Identity

With TikTok's rapidly shifting trends, visual consistency is crucial. You’ll shape and evolve our editing language, striking a balance between creative variety and brand recognizability. Whether it's color grading, lower thirds, or motion design touches, you'll make sure every post feels like "us."

Optimize for Performance

You’ll continuously analyze what sticks and what sinks. You’ll A/B test edits, try new hooks, and adapt pacing based on watch-through rates. That experimental mindset? It's how we grow.

What Success Looks Like

  • A 40% lift in average view duration within your first 60 days.
  • Viral moments that spark community discussion and save-worthiness.
  • A polished editing system that makes rapid iteration feel seamless.
  • Viewers comment things like "How is this ad so good?!" or "I watched this three times."

Tools and Stack You'll Use

We work fast but never compromise on clarity. Your toolkit will include:

  • CapCut Pro and Adobe Premiere Pro for core editing workflows
  • After Effects or Motion (bonus) for light animation and kinetic text
  • Notion for content calendars, scripting, and remote collaboration
  • Slack + Loom to communicate feedback with clarity

What Makes You a Great Fit

You Think in Loops, Not Just Clips

You understand the psychology of attention. From the first second hook to a loopable ending, you know how to build retention into your work.

You Simplify Complexity

Whether it's scripting ideas or providing feedback, you clearly explain your creative choices in Slack threads, asynchronous Loom videos, or quick team syncs. You're as articulate as you are artistic.

You Love the Craft

Editing isn’t just a skill—it’s your second language. You experiment with frame speed, beat syncing, and transitions just for fun. TikTok isn’t your only playground, but it is one you know inside out.

You Thrive Remotely

You manage your own time and focus intensely. Remote collaboration comes naturally, and you're proactive in asking questions, offering ideas, and meeting deadlines without being prompted.

Salary and Flexibility

This is a fully remote role with flexible hours, as long as deadlines are met and content is delivered on time. The annual compensation for this position is $62,728, with potential for performance-based bonuses. You’ll be supported by a team that believes in rest as much as rigor and values an asynchronous work culture.

Growth Opportunities

You’re not just editing—you’re building a cornerstone of our brand voice. There’s room to grow into the creative direction, motion design specialization, or cross-platform expansion (think Reels, Shorts, YouTube edits, and even brand campaigns).

Let’s Build Something Purposeful Together

If you're passionate about turning raw footage into social gold—and believe that short-form video is the most powerful communication tool of our time—we're excited to meet you. Your next great edit might be the one that defines our brand.

Let’s bring that vision to life—apply now and make an impact from your first frame.
