Inc42 is India's #1 media and intelligence platform on the startup economy – covering journalism, Datalabs (India's largest free startup database, with 75,000+ companies), our flagship Editorial IPs (AI Summit, D2C & Retail Summit, FAST42, D2C Retreat), and Griffin, India's most curated private founder club.

Why this role exists

Inc42 is building its YouTube division from 0 to 1. We're revamping the channel, setting the strategy, building the formats and scaling it – long-form explainers, founder conversations, podcasts and original IPs built on a decade of startup journalism and data.

The edit is where that gets won or lost. We're hiring a senior editor who treats YouTube as its own language, takes a project from raw footage to final master without needing every decision prescribed, and sets the post-production standard the rest of the division works to.

What You'll Own

• Long-form YouTube edits, end to end: Explainers, founder interviews, podcasts and documentary-style stories, from raw footage to final master. This is the core of the job.
• Story and structure in the edit:



Finding the strongest moments, restructuring when the material demands it, building the opening and the momentum, knowing when to cut and when to let a moment breathe.
• Podcast and multi-cam turnaround: Rapid, clean first cuts on multi-camera conversations, so a shoot reaches the audience while it still matters.
• Visual storytelling: B-roll, archival, screenshots, charts, on-screen text, sound design and everyday motion graphics that keep information-heavy subjects moving.
• Shorts from long-form: Platform-native Shorts and cutdowns that are rebuilt for the format, not chopped from the timeline.
• The post-production standard: Templates, presets, project structure, review workflow and delivery specs, including reviewing and raising the bar on freelance edits.
• AI in the pipeline: Transcription, cleanup, roto, upscaling, generative assets – used every day where they genuinely make the wor
