Stay up-to-date with platform-specific best practices for discoverability, watch time optimization, captioning, and thumbnail creation
Interpret performance metrics (e.g., retention rate, scroll depth, viewer drop-off) to iterate and refine editing strategy over time
Maintain a robust post-production workflow using Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Pro Tools, Audition, or other industry-standard tools
Deliver consistently on fast-paced timelines without compromising quality, with an ability to manage multiple content projects simultaneously
Collaborate with other editors and freelancers, providing feedback and maintaining consistency in visual and audio style

Demonstrated experience editing content for YouTube, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Instagram with clear KPIs around reach, engagement, or lead generation
Strong understanding of content storytelling, pacing, sound design, and motion design in a B2B context
Exceptional attention to detail in everything from waveform cleanup to final frame rendering
Experience interpreting audience metrics and performance data to improve future edits and inform creative direction
Ability to work collaboratively with marketing, production, and technical teams in a fast-paced, remote environment
Experience in managing or mentoring junior editors, freelancers, or production assistants is a plus
Highly organized, with the ability to prioritize competing deadlines and communicate clearly under pressure

Preferred Attributes:

Deep interest in podcasting, media strategy, or storytelling for technical/professional audiences
A continuous learner who adapts quickly to new tools, formats, and creative challenges
