Senior Video Editor
You set the bar. The team follows.
About the role
We run content for some of India's biggest creators and brands. In the last 6 months our work has crossed 450M+ views. We do 100M+ monthly views right now. Roster includes Raj Shamani, Badshah, BJP, and others.
The Senior Video Editor sits at the timeline 80% of the day and manages 2 editors (Anas + Himanshu) for the other 20%. You will not do client communication. That stays with us. You stay heads-down on the craft and the team.
Title path: Senior Video Editor → Editing Lead at 6 months → Creative Director track beyond.
What you will own
- 2-3 personally-shipped video edits every day. The hardest content gets you. AI-clone-mixed reels, premium client work, complex cuts.
- QC pass on every Anas + Himanshu reel before it ships. Final 10% sharpened, not signed off at 70%.
- Direction on raw clips with 2-3 lines of feedback per piece. Hook, pacing, B-roll, transitions.
- Daily morning sync to review yesterday's output, set today's direction, surface pending tasks.
- Weekly team check-in for what shipped, what flopped, what's next.
- Skill teach sessions with Anas or Himanshu, one focused upskill block per week.
- Notion updates EOD for your work, team statuses, and blockers.
Our proprietary AI-clone workflow, HeyGen, ElevenLabs and the AI tool stack are trainable on the job. We do not require you to come in AI-fluent. We require you to come in editing-fluent and design-eye sharp.
Who we are looking for
- 2-3 years hands-on editing work. Reels, podcasts, ads, or any short-form pipeline. Hands-on, not just "led a team that did it".
- Prior team-management experience. At least one role where you managed 1-2 editors before.
- Senior editor at an agency is the preferred background. Brand-side or scaled-creator-side also fine if you can show the chops.
- A specific portfolio. Actual reels, links, view counts. The 5-second test we will run live on your work matters more than the resume line.
- Design eye is non-negotiable. You can articulate why one reel reads premium and another reads cheap.
This role is not for you if
- You have a corporate mindset and treat work as a task to clock through rather than a craft to elevate.
- You are not team-oriented. You see Anas and Himanshu as your subordinates, not as people you are responsible for growing.
- You do not actually know Premiere or DaVinci. We will not train you on the software.
- You have no design knowledge. You cannot tell premium from cheap.
- You defend your edits when they get a note. Coachability is non-negotiable.
- You sugarcoat status updates.
- You want narrow specialist work. This role flexes from AI-clone mixing to podcast clipping to brand work in the same week.
We need someone who is very, very hardworking. That is not a euphemism. We work hard here, and we are looking for someone who finds that energising rather than exhausting.
