Freelance Video Editor & Social Media Contractor
Posted 2026-05-05
Remote, USA
Full-time
Immediate Start
We are a nonprofit that teaches young women and gender expansive teens to code for free. Our aesthetic is cool, good-weird, and zine-coded. Think hyper-saturated, retro tech, a little chaotic. We’re making content for Gen Z & Gen Alpha.
Key Responsibilities:
1. Video Editing
- Take raw footage — UGC, screen recordings, camp b-roll, alumni event content — and edit it into polished, on-trend short-form video
- Apply our visual language: zine-coded text treatment, hyper-saturated color grading, retro tech aesthetic
- Edit for the platform — TikTok and Instagram Reels have different rhythms, different caption styles, different hooks. You know the difference.
- Source and apply trending audio with good judgment — not every sound fits every moment
- Turn around edits quickly, especially for reactive or trending content
2. Social Posting
- Schedule and post content across TikTok and Instagram according to our content calendar
- Write captions that sound like a person, not a brand
3. Light Creative Collaboration
- Occasionally flag when a piece of raw footage has more potential than planned — bring ideas, not just execution
- Stay on top of what's trending in format, sound, and editing style and bring that knowledge into the work
Must haves:
- Fluency in Adobe Premiere
- A portfolio of short-form social video work
- Fast turnaround
- Genuine understanding of Gen Z and Gen Alpha content culture
Nice to haves
- Photoshop & After Effects experience
- Experience with screen-native or unconventional editing styles
- Familiarity with the zine, Y2K, or retro tech aesthetic
