Junior Video Editor

Overview
We're looking for a Junior / Assistant Video Editor who's eager to learn, loves storytelling, and sweats the details. You'll work alongside our senior editors on real client projects from day one — ingesting and organizing media, prepping DaVinci Resolve projects, syncing multicam interviews, and building narrative-driven edits from assembly through rough cut. You'll also get reps in basic motion graphics and grow your design instincts as you go.

This is a great fit if you're early in your editing career and want to level up fast inside a busy, collaborative production team.
