Youll play a critical role in producing tutorial videos, product explainers, testimonials, social media content, & performance-driven ads that align with our brand identity & support our marketing goals. Reporting to the Head of Organic Growth, youll collaborate closely with our Video Program Manager & cross-functional teams.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a video editor who wants to contribute meaningfully to a global brand & grow with the future of media production.

What Youll Be Doing

Video Production & Editing

• Edit & produce high-quality, engaging videos for a variety of formats including tutorials, explainers, customer stories, performance ads, & brand videos.
• Maintain visual consistency & high production standards across all video assets.
• Adapt & optimize content for various channels: YouTube, website, social platforms (LinkedIn, X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook).
• Ensure content is accessible with subtitles, clean audio, & optimized metadata.

Motion Graphics & Visual Effects

• Create motion graphics, branded animations, transitions, & visual effects using tools like Adobe After Effects.
• Incorporate text overlays, dynamic elements, sound design, & branding to enhance narrative quality.

Collaboration & Execution

• Partner with the Video Program Manager & marketing teams to align on storyboards, messaging, & campaign goals.

• Apply feedback constructively & iterate based on team input & video performance insights.

Nice to Have AI Media Skills

What Were Looking For

• 5+ years of hands-on experience in video editing & motion graphics, preferably in a digital agency, SaaS, or tech environment.
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, & other post-production software (e.g., Audition, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut).
• A strong portfolio showcasing polished storytelling across different formats & platforms.
• Strong attention to detail: you catch clunky transitions, off-beat audio, or misaligned subtitles before anyone else does.

• Clear communicator with a collaborative spirit & a deep understanding of visual branding.
