YT Video Editor for Shorts and Longform

We have two new YT channels (ie @thepetradar & @drdetox1) and are launching ones for our publications GadgetReview.com, MusicMinds.com etc so we're on the hunt for a next-level YouTube video editor (and AI video expert) who has experience in shorts and long form and keep viewers hooked with dynamic pacing and deliver edits that feel both premium and personal. 

Think MTV and NYTimes for today - tasteful but fast cuts, punchy visuals, smart use of archive and AI b-roll, captions, sound design—the whole package for a cool music channel. 

++What You’ll Do
1- Edit YouTube videos daily on Health, pets, music & politics (primarily 15s - 90s short-form videos to start).

2- Turn scripts and voice overs into captivating visual stories.

3- Source & Mix B-roll, stock footage, music, effects, memes, and captions to elevate the storytelling.

4- Nail the pacing, tone, and engagement that keeps viewers watching.
5- Collaborate closely on branding, thumbnails, and style guides.

6- Deliver fast, iterate fast—using the best tools in the game (we’re platform-agnostic, but speed and quality are non-negotiable).

7- We already have 400 articles of thumbnails, titles and scripts, we just need a great editor!

++What We’re Looking For
Some YouTube experience. Ideally you’ve worked on high-performing channels (100k+ subs or viral videos).

Deep understanding of engagement. You know how to structure a video to spike retention and reduce drop-off for shorts and long form.

Modern aesthetic. Clean but bold. Trend-aware, not trend-dependent.

Speed + quality. You use tools like Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci, CapCut Pro, After Effects—or better.

Source and produce b-roll using AI tools like Runway, Veo 3, Midjourney etc and prompt engineer daily
