VIDEO EDITOR

We are not looking for someone who can just edit videos.

We are looking for someone who can make people stop scrolling.

Clarynt is looking for a highly skilled and creatively driven Video Editor who understands modern content, visual storytelling, pacing, transitions, sound design, color grading and the constantly evolving language of social media.

This is a high-expectation role. You will be working on videos for brands where the quality of editing directly impacts how the brand is perceived.

If your editing is limited to basic cuts, templates, captions, transitions, and effects, this role is probably not for you.

WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU

- Strong command of Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro
- Strong understanding of short-form content, especially Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and other social-first formats
- CapCut / Edits can be used as secondary tools, but should not be your primary editing skill
- Excellent understanding of pacing, storytelling, rhythm, composition and visual hierarchy
- Strong command over sound design, music selection, SFX, transitions, text animation and motion
- Ability to make talking-head, UGC, promotional, cinematic, lifestyle and brand videos feel engaging
- Ability to understand a brief and turn raw footage into a finished piece of content, not simply assemble clips
- Strong awareness of current editing trends, formats and visual styles
- Trends should be something you actively follow, understand and can execute, not something you discover after being told about them
- Ability to identify what makes a video engaging within the first few seconds
- Attention to detail. Small things like timing, audio levels, typography, framing and transitions matter
- Ability to work with feedback and improve an edit without compromising creative quality

Expectation BAR

We expect you to have a strong editing instinct.

You should know when a cut needs to happen, when a transition is unnecessary,



when the music needs to hit harder, when a frame needs to breathe, and when a video simply isn't working.

We are looking for someone who can say:

"This edit can be better."

…and then actually make it better.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES

- Edit high-quality short-form and long-form video content
- Transform raw footage into engaging, platform-native content
- Develop creative editing approaches based on the brand and objective
- Keep up with emerging editing styles, trends and formats
- Work closely with the creative and social media team
- Handle multiple projects while maintaining quality and consistency
- Revise edits based on feedback and creative direction
- Maintain organized project files and deliverables

REQUIREMENTS

Must Have:

- Proven experience as a professional Video Editor
- Solid portfolio/showreel
- Proficiency in at least one professional editing software:
- Premiere Pro / DaVinci Resolve / Final Cut Pro

- Willingness to experiment and continuously improve
- Good to Have:
- Motion graphics
- After Effects
- Basic color grading
- Advanced sound design
- Experience working with brands and agencies

IMPORTANT

Your portfolio matters more to us than your resume.

We will evaluate your actual work, editing decisions, creativity, attention to detail and ability to create content that holds attention.

If you believe your editing can genuinely compete with the quality of content being produced by leading creators, brands and agencies, we want to see your work.
