Video Editor (Long/Short Form + Motion Graphics) - 20501

Video Editor (Long-Form & Short-Form)

Turn weekly long-form video into a clean, professional content slate

Location:  Fully remote (region flexible; overlap with U.S. business hours preferred)
Employment:  Full-time, independent contractor (direct hire)
Reports to:  Organic Content Lead
Volume:  ~1 long-form video per week, chopped into multiple short-form clips

We are a rapidly growing U.S.-based company in the fintech and digital investing-education space, now expanding into a new software brand. Our growth is powered by a high-performing content and paid-acquisition engine: long-form video, short-form social, and conversion-focused funnels that turn audience attention into qualified customers. As we scale, the same core marketing team supports both our established education brand and our new software product. This is a fast-moving, direct-response environment where output, iteration, and measurable results matter more than polish for its own sake. Note: this role operates in the crypto and digital-asset education space, so comfort working in that category is important.

This role exists to keep our content engine moving. We produce roughly one long-form video per week that then gets chopped into short-form clips for distribution, and we need an editor who can turn that footage around quickly and consistently without sacrificing quality.

Our edit style is clean and professional, closer to an institutional feel than a heavily stylized one. We are not looking for flashy, effect-heavy edits. That said, we want an editor who genuinely has motion-graphics skill, because editors with that skill make the fundamentals look better and can add tasteful emphasis, zooms, and on-screen graphics where they help the viewer understand the material.
