Optimize titles, descriptions, tags, and overall SEO strategy for each video.

Shape narrative and pacing for strong storytelling, even in informational or tour-based content.

Repurpose long-form YouTube content into short-form videos (Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts) that are vertical, fast-paced, and optimized for viral reach.

Stay up to date on YouTube & TikTok algorithm best practices and integrate them into editing decisions.

Provide input on video structure, pacing, and creative direction.

What We’re Looking For:

Proven experience editing YouTube content (real estate, lifestyle, or vlogs preferred).

Strong portfolio with examples of story-driven editing and cinematic style.

Proficiency in editing software (Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, etc.).

Understanding of YouTube SEO and proven ability to improve video performance.

Experience designing custom thumbnails (Photoshop, Canva, or similar tools).

Skilled in short-form editing for Reels and TikTok, with knowledge of platform-specific trends.

Attention to detail, reliability, and ability to meet deadlines.

Nice-to-Haves:
Knowledge of real estate or home-related content.
Experience with YouTube analytics and using data to guide creative decisions.
Graphic animation/motion graphics skills.

What We Offer:
Flexible remote position.
Steady workflow of projects (2–3 YouTube videos + short-form content weekly).
Pay based on experience, with room to grow as the channel grows.
