Role Overview
We’re looking for a Video Editor who can turn ideas into high-performing content.
This is not just editing — it’s about understanding what keeps attention, drives engagement, and converts viewers into users.
You’ll work closely with the team to create content for YouTube, Twitter (X), and other platforms.
What You’ll Do

• Edit short-form videos (Reels, Shorts, TikTok-style content)

• Edit long-form YouTube videos (educational, breakdowns, live clips)

• Add captions, motion graphics, sound effects, and pacing that maximize retention

• Turn raw content (screen recordings, trading clips, talking head videos) into engaging videos

• Repurpose long-form content into multiple short clips

• Collaborate on content ideas, hooks, and storytelling angles

• Optimize videos for performance (watch time, retention, CTR)

What We’re Looking For

• Proven experience in video editing (portfolio required)

• Strong understanding of short-form content and retention techniques

• Ability to edit fast-paced, engaging videos (cuts, zooms, captions, effects)

• Good sense of storytelling and flow

• Self-driven and able to take ownership of content output

• Comfortable working in a fast-paced startup environment

Bonus Points

• Experience in trading, finance, or prop firms

• Experience editing content for YouTube growth

• Motion design skills (After Effects or similar)

• Understanding of viral content formats and trends

This role is for someone who:

• Doesn’t just edit, but thinks like a content creator

• Understands what makes videos perform

• Can move fast and iterate quickly

• Is willing to push quality and creativity

Why Join Us

• Work on a fast-growing product in the prop trading space

• Direct impact on content, growth, and brand

• Opportunity to experiment and shape content strategy
