- Can recognize a good story without being told exactly how to cut it
- Is obsessed with improving retention
- Can work quickly without sacrificing quality

Working StyleThis is a hands-on full-time role working closely with the founder.
You will receive raw footage on an ongoing basis and will be responsible for turning it into finished content.
