Video Editor in Syndicode

About the role

We’re looking for a Video Editor to own high-volume production of educational and product content: tutorials, airdrop walkthroughs, later ICO/IDO guides, and project explainers. You’ll cut long-form for YouTube, craft vertical shorts for TikTok/IG Reels/YouTube Shorts, add motion graphics, and continuously improve results via analytics.

Responsibilities

• Editing (YT / Shorts / TikTok / IG): Assemble, tighten, and finish long and short videos; repurpose long-form into vertical clips; maintain pacing, hooks, and clear CTAs.

• Motion design & graphics: Lower thirds, titles, callouts, chapters/timestamps frames, end screens, simple explainers; build reusable MOGRT templates and brand packs.

• Subtitles & localization: Produce accurate EN/RU subtitles; manage SRT/VTT and burned-in captions; ensure readability on mobile.

• Color & sound: Color correction/grading and camera matching; audio cleanup, EQ, compression, noise reduction; loudness normalization per platform.

• Screen captures & overlays: Record/clean desktop or mobile flows; annotate steps for guides (airdrops/ICO/IDO).

• Analytics & improvement: Read YouTube retention graphs and platform insights; track watch time, completion rate, end-screen CTR; iterate hooks, structure, and packaging.

• Collaboration: Work with scriptwriters, SMM, and designers on briefs, thumbnails, and copy; incorporate feedback quickly while protecting quality.

Requirements

• 2+ years of editing for product/education or media (YouTube + short-form).

• Mastery of Premiere Pro (or Final Cut/DaVinci) and After Effects (motion basics). Audition/Resolve Fairlight for audio is a plus.

• Demonstrated ability to craft fast hooks, clear storytelling, and crisp on-screen explainers.

• Solid grasp of platform policies (music licensing, claims) and best practices for titles/descriptions/chapters.

• Comfortable with subtitles/localization workflows (EN/RU).

• Strong organization, deadline discipline, and excellent async communication.

Nice to have

• DaVinci color management; Blender/Cinema 4D for simple 3D; Lottie/Rive for lightweight motion.

• Voice-over direction, basic lighting/camera knowledge.

• Experience in crypto/fintech content (risk disclaimers, no-advice framing).

What we offer

• Remote work, tight feedback loops, and real impact on product roadmap.

• Space to experiment with formats and automation.

• Competitive compensation (discussed individually).
