We are looking for someone who can use AI throughout the editing process to analyze footage, identify strong moments, generate transcripts, recommend cuts, develop story structures, create captions, and produce polished videos more efficiently.

The ideal candidate combines video-editing ability, strong storytelling instincts, visual creativity, and an interest in AI-powered production workflows.

Responsibilities

• Design and build agentic systems that transform raw footage from virtual calls, interviews, demonstrations, product testing, and team activities into engaging short-form videos
• Develop AI workflows that detect scenes, identify strong moments, classify content, and organize reusable media assets
• Create systems that automatically select short, high-impact moments from longer answers, conversations, and recordings
• Build agents that analyze available footage and construct clear stories using multiple clips, speakers, text overlays, captions, sound effects, music, and motion graphics
• Develop automated video-planning systems for vertical content designed for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts
• Create AI reasoning workflows that generate strong openings, hooks, pacing structures, transitions, and endings based on audience-retention goals

Requirements

• Stable internet connection
• Ability to
  work virtually
• Strong communication skills
• Ability to work independently
• Interest in
  AI, skills training, verification systems, and product development

Desired Skills

• Experience using AI tools for transcription, scene detection, clip selection, captioning, cleanup, enhancement, or editing assistance
• Familiarity with tools such as Claude, Codex, Remotion, and Hyperframes
• Interested in short-form storytelling and attention-focused editing
• Comfortable combining human creative judgment with AI-generated recommendations
