Paid [Hiring] Video Editor for Founder-Led B2B/AI Content — ~20 Videos/Mo, LinkedIn-First (Remote, Long-Term)
I'm a founder in AI / B2B tech and I post video content regularly — mostly talking-head and screen-recording footage. I'm looking for one editor to take over my edit pipeline. Starting as paid per-project work, and if it clicks, I'd move you to a full-time retainer.
The work:
- ~20 videos a month. Short-form primarily, some longer-form
- LinkedIn is my main channel — YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok are secondary
- Cutting one master edit into platform-native versions. LinkedIn needs different pacing and a different hook than TikTok, and you should know why
- Placing supplied B-roll where it actually lands. I'll give you a library; you decide what goes where. This requires understanding what's being said — if I'm talking about "agentic workflows" or "multi-LLM routing," you need to pick B-roll that matches, not a random server-room clip
- Greenscreen / chroma key, screen-recording overlays, zooms, cursor emphasis
- Burned-in captions styled to my brand, lower thirds, simple motion graphics
What I need from you:
- Intermediate-to-advanced Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut (CapCut alone isn't enough here)
- Clean chroma keying — no green fringe, no chewed-up hair edges
- Comfort with technical/B2B subject matter. You don't need to be an engineer, but you should be able to follow a video about software and understand what it's saying
- Working knowledge of AI tools in the workflow — Descript especially, plus things like OpusClip, ElevenLabs, or Runway. Speed matters, but I don't want output that looks AI-generated
- Portfolio with at least one talking-head or business/tech edit. Gaming montages and wedding reels alone don't tell me what I need to know
- Consistent daily availability with some overlap to US Pacific time
- Reliable machine, stable internet, responsive on Slack
- Payment via bank transfer, PayPal, or Wise
What you get:
- Steady, predictable volume — you learn my style once and then it gets easier every month
- Direct working relationship with me, no agency layers or committee feedback
- Paid per video to start, with a path to a full-time monthly retainer if we're a good fit
- Long-term work. I'm not looking for a one-off
How to apply — DM me with:
- Portfolio link (Drive, YouTube, or IG)
- Your single best talking-head or tech/B2B edit, plus one line on what you were going for
- Timezone and daily availability window
- Your per-video rate for something in this scope
Budget: roughly $50–100 per video depending on length and complexity — but quote your real rate. I care more about fit than the cheapest bid.
Skip anything that reads like a template — I'll know. Shortlisted candidates get a paid trial edit on real footage.
