Professional Video Editor

Video Editor — NeuGravity

Location: Remote / Hybrid
Type: Full-time / Freelance / Contract
Experience: 1–4 years
Industry: AI Technology Education Content
Brand: NeuGravity

Our goal is simple:

Take something technically complicated and make it so simple and engaging that anyone can understand it.

We are building content primarily for YouTube and short-form platforms, with a strong focus on storytelling, visuals, motion graphics and practical examples.

What We're Looking For

We are looking for a creative Video Editor who can turn a raw talking-head recording + screen recording + script into a polished, engaging technology video.

You should have a strong sense of:

Storytelling → Pacing → Visuals → Motion → Sound → Retention

This isn't just a “cut the pauses and add subtitles” job.

We want someone who can ask:

“The speaker is explaining this concept — what should the viewer SEE at this exact moment?”

That's the mindset we're looking for.

What You Will Do1. YouTube Long-Form Videos

Edit technology/AI videos typically ranging from:

8–25 minutes

You will:

• Edit talking-head footage
• Remove unnecessary pauses and mistakes
• Improve pacing
• Add B-roll
• Add screen recordings
• Add relevant images/videos
• Create visual explanations
• Add motion graphics
• Add text animations
• Add diagrams and visual metaphors
• Add sound effects
• Add background music where appropriate
• Create smooth transitions
• Maintain viewer engagement throughout the video

2. Short-Form Content

Turn long-form videos into engaging:

• YouTube Shorts
• Instagram Reels
• LinkedIn videos
• X/Twitter clips

You should be comfortable identifying:

• Strong hooks
• Interesting moments
• Quotable statements
• Surprising insights
• 30–90 second standalone stories

The goal isn't simply to cut a long video into smaller pieces.

The short should feel like a complete piece of content.

Technology & AI Visual Storytelling

This is particularly important for NeuGravity.

When we explain something like:

“What is an LLM?”

we don't want the entire video to show a person talking.

We may want:

Speaker → words appear → neural network animation → tokens → prediction → visual example → return to speaker

Similarly, when explaining:

“What is an AI Agent?”

we may want to visually show:

Goal → Planning → Tools → Action → Observation → Decision → Result

You should enjoy creating these kinds of visual explanations.

Motion Graphics

You should be comfortable creating basic-to-advanced motion graphics such as:

• Kinetic typography
• Animated diagrams
• UI animations
• Callouts
• Arrows
• Zooms
• Highlight effects
• Animated icons
• Screen annotations
• Timeline animations
• Data visualizations
• Concept animations
• Transitions
• Lower thirds
• Chapter/title animations

You don't need to create Pixar-level animation.

But you should know how to make a technical concept visually interesting. Screen Recording & Software Content

NeuGravity will frequently explain software, AI tools and technical concepts.

You may work with:

• Browser recordings
• ChatGPT
• AI tools
• Developer tools
• Terminal
• VS Code
• Cloud consoles
• Websites
• Product demos
• Software interfaces

You should know how to:

• Zoom into important areas
• Highlight UI elements
• Blur sensitive information
• Add cursor effects
• Add keyboard/mouse indicators
• Create smooth screen transitions
• Make software demonstrations easy to follow

Audio Editing

Good audio is extremely important.

You should be comfortable with:

• Noise removal
• EQ
• Compression
• De-essing
• Volume normalization
• Removing background noise
• Removing unwanted breaths/clicks where appropriate
• Improving voice clarity
• Syncing external audio
• Background music mixing
• Sound effects

The final video should sound clean and professional.

Visual Style

NeuGravity's visual identity should feel:

Modern Intelligent Premium Minimal Tech-forward

Think:

• Modern technology channels
• Premium SaaS product videos
• AI/tech documentaries
• High-quality educational YouTube
• Clean motion graphics
• Strong typography
• Cinematic storytelling

Avoid excessive:

Flashy transitions
Random effects
Overuse of emojis
Cheap templates
Unnecessary zooms
Distracting animations

Every visual should have a purpose.

Tools

Experience with one or more of the following is preferred:

Video Editing

• Adobe Premiere Pro
• DaVinci Resolve
• Final Cut Pro

Motion Graphics

• Adobe After Effects
• Blender
• Cavalry
• Apple Motion

Design

• Figma
• Photoshop
• Illustrator

Other

• CapCut
• Descript
• Canva
• AI video tools

You don't need to know everything.

Strong editing + storytelling ability matters more than the number of tools on your resume.

AI Tools

We are an AI-focused content company, so familiarity with AI-powered creative tools is a major advantage.

Examples:

• Runway
• Kling
• Veo
• Sora
• Midjourney
• ChatGPT
• Claude
• ElevenLabs
• AI voice/music tools
• AI image generation
• AI video generation

You should be curious about experimenting with new tools.

Technical Understanding

You don't need to be a software engineer.

However, you should be comfortable understanding basic concepts such as:

• AI
• LLM
• Machine Learning
• APIs
• Cloud
• Databases
• Software
• Programming
• AI Agents

Why?

Because you'll need to understand what the speaker is talking about before deciding how to visualize it.

Someone who understands technology will have a significant advantage.

Your Responsibilities

You will work closely with the content creator to:

• Understand the script
• Understand the story
• Identify visual opportunities
• Create an editing plan
• Edit the first version
• Add motion graphics
• Add B-roll
• Add sound design
• Review feedback
• Deliver the final video
• Create short-form clips from long-form content

You may also participate in brainstorming:

“How can we explain this concept visually?”What We Care About

The most important metric isn't:

“How many effects did you add?”

It's:

Did the viewer keep watching?

We care about:

• Viewer retention
• First 30-second engagement
• Story flow
• Clarity
• Pacing
• Visual storytelling
• Audio quality
• Overall production quality Ideal Candidate

You may be a great fit if:

• You genuinely enjoy YouTube
• You understand modern content
• You watch technology/AI content
• You notice editing techniques while watching videos
• You understand storytelling
• You have strong visual instincts
• You are curious about technology
• You can work independently
• You can take feedback positively

❌ This Role May NOT Be For You If

You primarily want to:

• Just cut clips
