The Role OpusClip is building the future of AI video — and we need someone who can make it look like it. We are seeking a hands-on AI Video Editor who lives at the intersection of creative instinct and technical craft. This is not a role for someone who waits for perfect footage. This is a role for an editor who can take raw, broken, or AI-generated clips and turn them into something undeniably polished — fast. The Mandate - Edit at the Speed of AI: Transform AI-generated clips into high-quality demo, marketing, and ad videos. When the footage is rough or broken, you don't wait — you rebuild it. - Bridge the Gap: Combine AI outputs with motion graphics, compositing, and traditional editing techniques to produce results that AI alone can't deliver yet. - Prototype and Iterate Rapidly: Move fast on demos for product and marketing. You're comfortable shipping, getting feedback, and iterating — all in the same day. - Shape the Workflow: Help define and refine how AI-assisted video production works at OpusClip. Your hands-on experience informs how we build the product itself. - Train the Machine: Produce manual video edits that serve as references for training OpusClip's agentic product. Your craft directly shapes how our AI learns. The Profile - The Hands-On Editor: You have 3–6 years of experience in video editing and motion design. You're fast, precise, and never precious about starting over. - The Technician: You know Premiere Pro, After Effects, and similar tools deeply. You can take rough footage and make it sing. - The AI-Native Creator: You've worked with AI video tools and understand both their power and their limits — and you know exactly how to fill the gaps. - The Storyteller: You have a strong sense of pacing, visual polish, and narrative. You don't just cut clips — you shape experiences. - The Startup Operator: You're comfortable in fast-moving environments, thrive with ambiguity, and treat iteration as a feature, not a bug. The Details - Location: On-site in Mountain View, 4 days/week - Engagement: Contract role- opportunity to convert You Should NOT Apply If - You need clean, camera-ready footage to do your best work - You're not comfortable working with AI-generated content and its limitations - You prefer a slow, defined creative process over rapid iteration - You haven't used AI video tools in your workflow EEO OpusClip is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
