Job Description

What this role covers

Video Editor (High-Retention YouTube & AI Content)

  • We are hiring a high-performance video editor to produce fast-paced, high-retention YouTube videos focused on AI, business, and operations

  • This is not basic editing

  • You will be responsible for transforming raw footage into engaging, high-retention content using modern YouTube editing styles inspired by:

    • Alex Hormozi

    • Charlie Chang

    • Patrick Dang

  • The goal is simple: Every second of the video should feel intentional and engaging

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Edit long-form YouTube videos (8–20 minutes)

  • Apply high-retention editing techniques:

    • Rapid cuts (1–3 seconds)

    • Pattern interrupts every 2–5 seconds

    • Dynamic zooms and motion

  • Add:

    • Bold on-screen text

    • UI-style graphics (tags, pills, overlays)

    • Cinematic effects (glow, blur, lighting)

  • Incorporate B-roll:

    • AI, tech, startup visuals

    • Dashboards, interfaces, workflows

  • Perform sound design:

    • Background music

    • Subtle SFX for emphasis

  • Remove:

    • Filler words

    • Pauses

Security & Privacy (Non-Negotiable)

  • Hide:

    • API keys

    • Passwords

    • Usernames

    • Profile pictures

Editing Style (VERY IMPORTANT)

  • Follow a high-retention AI explainer style:

    • Fast-paced, no static frames

    • Text-driven storytelling

    • Cinematic + modern tech aesthetic

    • Dark/minimal UI visuals

    • Glow effects for AI concepts

    • Strong visual emphasis on key ideas

  • If a frame feels boring, it must be improved

Example Editing Requirements

  • Hook must start immediately (no delay)

  • Add motion within the first second

  • Use visual emphasis on key statements

  • Maintain constant visual change

  • Example concepts:

    • “AI is here” → animated UI tag

    • “You will be left behind” → bold dramatic text

    • Stats → animated pill UI
