About the Role
We’re looking for a highly creative, well-rounded Video Editor to craft compelling, story-driven content across multiple formats, from short-form social (30 seconds to 3 minutes) to longer-form pieces for presentations and events.
This role is ideal for an editor with strong documentary instincts who can shape narrative from raw footage, building emotional, engaging stories using interviews, talking heads, scripted content, and b-roll. You won’t just cut footage, you’ll help define the story.

- Experience with color grading, sound design, and visual effects
- Highly organized, able to manage and review large volumes of footage
- Able to start within 2 weeks and work onsite in Long Beach, CA
What You’ll Do
- Edit high-quality video content from rough cut through final delivery
- Review raw footage and independently shape narrative arcs and story structure
- Craft documentary-style content across social, brand, and presentation formats
- Integrate interviews, talking heads, and b-roll into cohesive, engaging stories
- Execute color grading, sound design, and light VFX
- Collaborate with creative and production teams while owning the edit
- Manage multiple projects in a fast-paced environment with tight timelines
Details
