• Testing trends, formats, AI tools, and new editing workflows quickly
• Writing captions that drive reach, watch time, and engagement
• Iterating based on performance data, not opinions

What matters

• A strong reel or body of short-form work (degree not required)
• Advanced vertical editing skills (Premiere Pro, CapCut, Final Cut etc)
• Deep platform fluency and cultural awareness
• High output, strong taste, minimal hand-holding
• A real obsession with golf (playing experience strongly preferred)
• Experience with, or interest in learning, AI tools or programming environments such as Claude Code is a bonus

Compensation

• Base salary: USD $65,000 to $90,000 (negotiable) + employment benefits and progression opportunities available based on output and impact
• Additional note
