Job Summary

Own the end-to-end production of short-form brand video across planning, editing, publishing, and performance optimization, partnering across teams and integrating AI-assisted tools.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • own the full lifecycle of short-form video for our brand channels — from topic planning and storyboarding through editing, motion graphics, and publishing.
  • pulling from blogs, launches, webinars, and exec talks — so video output is planned and proactive rather than reactive.
  • turn raw SME footage into a recognizable, high-performing video style.
  • integrate AI-assisted editing, transcription, captioning, and repurposing tools into daily work, while keeping a human hand on creative quality.
  • Video production with AIO/GEO best practices.
  • Motion graphics have elevated the brand's video content beyond straight cuts.
  • Cross-functional partners trust you to run with a brief. Content marketing, product marketing, and executive comms treat you as an owner of the video format, not just an execution resource.
  • Video performance data actively shapes what gets made next. You track engagement and retention metrics across channels and use them to adjust format, pacing, and topic selection

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional video editing experience, ideally with in-house or agency experience producing short-form social content for a brand.
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating short-form editing (15–90 second formats): hook design, pacing, storytelling in compressed formats, and platform-native style.
  • Proficiency in professional editing software (Adobe Premiere Pro and/or DaVinci Resolve; After Effects for motion graphics).
  • Hands-on experience with AI-assisted video editing and production tools, and interest in keeping pace with how AI is changing the editing workflow.
  • Working knowledge of AIO/GEO principles and how they intersect with social content strategy — or strong aptitude and interest in developing this.
  • Motion graphics and animation skills: lower thirds, kinetic typography, simple data visualizations, branded templates.
  • Content marketing sensibility: comfortable turning a brief or a long-form asset into a short-form video concept and shot list without heavy hand-holding.
  • Understanding of audio editing/sound design and caption/text-overlay design for sound-off viewing.
  • Ability to manage multiple videos in production simultaneously and hit fast turnaround deadlines in a high-volume content environment.
  • Experience translating technical or B2B subject matter into accessible, engaging content is a strong plus.
