Video Editor

Responsibilities

• Edit video content across formats: social cutdowns, brand and culture films, event recaps, and product storytelling, from rough cut to final delivery.
• Apply light motion design and finishing (titles, captions, simple graphics) using After Effects and existing brand templates.
• Manage versioning, feedback rounds, and delivery specs across multiple concurrent projects using Frame.io.
• Work within Plaid's brand and motion guidelines to keep editorial style consistent across deliverables.
• Collaborate with producers, designers, and stakeholders to scope timelines and keep projects on track.

Qualifications

• 5–7 years of editing experience with a strong reel showing range across short-form and long-form work.
• Expert in Premiere Pro; working proficiency in After Effects for titles, captions, and light motion.
• Strong editorial instincts: pacing, story structure, music selection, and interview/talking-head work.
• Solid finishing fundamentals: audio mixing, basic color correction, and delivery across platform specs.
• Comfortable working independently and managing multiple projects with minimal oversight.
• Excellent communication skills; responsive and organized in remote, async collaboration (US hours).
• Familiarity with review and file management workflows (Frame.io or similar).
• Experience or curiosity with AI-assisted editing and production workflows.
• Nice-to-have: motion design chops beyond the basics, or experience editing event/keynote content.
