Darkroom is looking for a Video Editor on its internal Marketing Team to shape the visual storytelling behind the brand, turning raw content into high-impact videos for social platforms.

What you'll do

• Create native video formats optimized for IG, LinkedIn, YouTube, TikTok, and X, including repurposed edits and cutdowns.
• Build scroll-stopping hooks, text overlays, closed captions, sound design, and motion graphics that support performance.
• Turn voice notes, podcasts, webinars and interviews into polished, platform-native video content.
• Surface and extract the most compelling moments from raw footage, such as podcast soundbites, behind-the-scenes gems, founder tangents, and interviews.
• Collaborate with the Video Lead on edits, structure, and narrative framing.
• Organize, tag, and manage footage to create a systemized pipeline for recurring content formats.
• Understand performance data and collaborate with the marketing team to refine editing strategies based on what drives reach, engagement, and conversion.
• Test hooks, variations and formats to optimize output over time.
• Stay ahead of editing trends and platform algorithm shifts.
• Apply finishing touches: color correction, transitions, graphics, and text effects that align with the Darkroom brand language.
• Deliver content in multiple aspect ratios and formats for cross-platform distribution.
• Maintain high audio fidelity, visual clarity, and consistent branding across deliverables.
• Proactively troubleshoot creative or technical challenges and recommend solutions.
• Support post-production for Darkroom's podcast and event recordings.

• Working knowledge of After Effects, Photoshop and motion graphics.
• A sharp eye for storytelling, pacing, and rhythm, with the ability to build content that keeps attention.
• Understanding of editing for performance, including what performs on TikTok vs. YouTube Shorts vs. LinkedIn.
• Fluency in optimizing content across multiple aspect ratios and formats.
• Ability to own an edit from concept to final export while staying collaborative, communicative, and open to feedback.
