About the Role
We’re looking for a sharp, detail-obsessed Podcast Video Editor who can take raw multi-camera podcast footage and turn it into polished, high-retention YouTube episodes — and then pull out high-performing short-form clips for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

- Full color correction + grading
- Create YouTube-optimized pacing (jump cuts, punch-ins, screen text when needed)
- Integrate any branded intro / outro or lower thirds
- Export in best YouTube settings
- Deliver polished final cut + thumbnails when requested
- Short-Form Clip Creation (3 per week minimum)
- Pull out high-performing moments from each episode
- Create vertical clips with dynamic captioning
- Use pacing, zooms, punch-ins, and hooks to hold attention
- Color-correct clips
- Add subtle SFX if appropriate
- Deliver for IG Reels / TikTok / Shorts
- File Management
- Work directly from Google Drive
- Keep all raw footage, project files, exports, and templates organized
- Deliver versions for review + final polished cuts on schedule
