We’re hiring a Video Editor + Motion Designer to join our team and take recorded footage (tutorials, case studies, webinars, and talking-head content) and turn it into clean, engaging, publish-ready videos .
You’ll work across two types of projects:
- ScaleMath Studios– our in-house video content and YouTube channel
- Advisory & Services– video and content assets produced for the companies we work with
This role is for someone who cares about pacing, clarity, polish, and viewer comprehension — and who can use motion graphics to support the story (not distract from it).
What you’ll do
- Edit long-form recorded footage into tight, high-retention videos
- Improve pacing, structure, and clarity while preserving the speaker’s natural delivery
- Create and integrate motion graphics (lower thirds, callouts, simple explainer sequences, UI highlights, transitions)
- Add B-roll, overlays, and on-screen text where it improves understanding
- Handle audio cleanup, leveling, and general sound polish
- Produce rough cuts and iterate quickly based on feedback
- Deliver final exports optimized for YouTube and other channels
- Maintain a consistent style and quality bar across multiple brands and projects
- Improve our workflow over time (templates, presets, reusable motion systems)
What we’re looking for
- Proven experience editing YouTube videos or long-form educational content
- Strong editorial judgment: pacing, structure, clarity, and storytelling
- Motion design ability (After Effects or equivalent) for clean, modern, functional animation
- High attention to detail across cuts, timing, audio, and on-screen text
- Strong taste: you know what looks modern vs outdated
- Comfortable taking feedback and iterating quickly
- Reliable, self-directed, and able to deliver consistently
Tools
You can use your preferred tools, but most of our workflow is compatible with:
- Descript
- Premiere Pro
- After Effects
- Frame.io
Bonus points (not required)
- Experience editing SaaS, B2B, or product-led content
- Ability to create a reusable motion system for a channel (titles, lower thirds, callouts, transitions)
- Thumbnail design experience
- Familiarity with retention editing principles for YouTube
- Experience working with founders and subject matter experts
How to apply
Please send:
- 2–4 examples you’re proud of (YouTube links preferred)
- A short note about your role in each project (editing only vs editing + motion)
- Your availability and typical turnaround time for a 10–20 minute video
