Remote Long-Form Video Editor

Turn Raw Stories Into Lasting Impact—All From Wherever You Are

Imagine having the freedom to build powerful narratives that move audiences without ever needing to commute. If you’re the type of storyteller who obsesses over the emotional arc, finds joy in fine-tuning a sequence until it just clicks, and thrives in shaping moments that matter, this is where your creativity meets purpose. Here, you’ll transform hours of unpolished footage into compelling long-form content—think podcasts, interviews, documentaries, branded features, and in-depth video series—that viewers finish and share. You’re not just cutting clips; you’re making sure every second counts, every story lands, and every audience feels something real.

What You’ll Achieve

There’s no “checklist” approach here. You’ll own the narrative—curating raw video, refining voice, and connecting ideas so viewers stay engaged from the very first frame to the last.
  • Shape long-form video experiences that bring clarity to complex topics, turning interviews, webinars, and multi-guest conversations into cohesive, binge-worthy content.
  • Your edits won’t just look good—they’ll drive audience retention, spark social shares, and build trust with viewers, clients, and stakeholders alike.
  • Whether you’re editing an expert-led deep dive, a founder’s story, or an episodic series, you’ll be the architect behind the scenes, ensuring pacing, tone, and storytelling all work together.
  • Your creativity will help shape onboarding workflows for our internal content producers, reducing friction and elevating our collective output.

The Day-to-Day: Where Your Craft Matters

Every day, you’ll collaborate with creative leads, writers, and motion designers—each as committed as you are to making every video better than the last.
  • You’ll partner with subject-matter experts to understand key points, map out story arcs, and distill complex information into crisp, audience-friendly narratives.
  • No silos here. You’ll jump into feedback sessions over Zoom, present rough cuts on Frame.io, and join brainstorms that spark unexpected ideas.
  • We move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus intensely on your craft—whether you’re perfecting a transition, syncing dialogue, or shaping the flow of an hour-long interview.

Your Superpowers

  • Storytelling: You see the big picture in a sea of footage, and you love uncovering the core narrative that drives everything forward.
  • Editing Mastery: DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, Final Cut—these are your paintbrushes. Layering audio, grading color, balancing interviews, or cleaning up rough sound? You’re all in.
  • Audience Empathy: You edit with the viewer’s experience in mind, always asking, “Will this land? Does this keep people watching?”
  • Clear Communication: You simplify complex ideas—whether it’s over Zoom, Slack, or a punchy timestamp comment.
  • Feedback Resilience: Critique is fuel, not friction. You’re open, collaborative, and always eager to learn and adapt.

Tools & Tech Stack

Your remote editing setup is a key component that sets you apart.
  • Software: Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro X, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects (for motion polish), Audition (audio enhancement), Frame.io (for seamless review cycles), and Descript (AI-powered transcript edits).
  • Remote Collaboration: Google Workspace, Slack, and Zoom keep everyone aligned, while Asana and Notion help organize production pipelines.
  • Asset Libraries: Access to Artlist, Epidemic Sound, and storyboarding tools lets you bring your complete creative vision to life.

The Work Environment

Our culture values autonomy, craft, and creativity equally.
  • You’ll work asynchronously from wherever you’re most focused—home studio, coffee shop, or coworking space—while staying connected with a globally distributed creative team.
  • Expect to join brainstorming calls where your opinion shapes not just the edit, but the way stories are told across our brand.
  • Deadlines matter, but there’s always room for experimentation. You’ll have the freedom to try new techniques, propose new formats, and set a higher bar with every project.

Key Responsibilities (And Why They Matter)

  • End-to-End Editing: Guide long-form video projects from raw intake to polished publish—owning structure, style, and delivery at every step.
  • Audience Retention: Analyze engagement data and viewer feedback to refine your edits, continually seeking new ways to enhance watch time and impact.
  • Creative Direction: Propose new storytelling formats, pitch fresh content angles, and help shape the editorial voice across multiple video channels.
  • Team Collaboration: Partner with design, engineering, and support teams to build unified solutions, making sure visuals, graphics, and story all sync perfectly.
  • Quality Control: Maintain high standards for audio-visual clarity, accessibility, and consistency, so every video looks and feels premium.

What You Bring

  • Proven experience editing long-form video content for YouTube, podcasts, webinars, or branded docuseries—portfolio required.
  • Fluency in at least two professional editing tools; you know how to move between them as projects demand.
  • Comfort working in remote collaboration tools—tracking tasks in Notion or Asana, sharing files via cloud storage, and handling feedback in real time.
  • You’re adept at steering several projects at once—balancing creative flow with organizational precision so nothing slips through the cracks.
  • An instinct for pacing, structure, and visual storytelling that turns passive viewers into loyal subscribers.

Growth & Impact

When you join us, your voice shapes our video culture. Your edits will inform future formats, train new producers, and set the tone for everything we release.
  • You’ll guide less-experienced editors, mentoring them on both technique and creative approach.
  • By sharing your insights and suggestions, you’ll actively shape our evolving remote onboarding and workflow processes, helping the entire team work smarter.
  • And as our channels grow, so does your influence—your work will reach hundreds of thousands of viewers worldwide.

Compensation

We value your expertise and dedication—annual salary: $67,728—plus the flexibility to work wherever you’re most creative. No commutes, just real impact.
