Senior Video Editor & Viral Content Creator

Job Description

• Full-Time
• Hybrid (3x2) Humaitá - Rio de Janeiro
• R$8.000 - R$15.000
• Long term contractor

What's this about

• We help gig workers in Brazil earn more — 160k+ subscribers and growing. Now we're launching in the US and need someone who lives and breathes US internet culture to own our content from day one.

What You'll Own

• End-to-End Short-Form Production: Edit and produce high-volume, high-impact short-form video content (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) tailored to US gig drivers, from raw material to final cut.
• Paid Media Creatives: Produce and rapidly iterate on video creatives running in US paid media campaigns, working in direct alignment with our US traffic agency to optimize conversion.
• Data & Retention-Driven Iteration: Proactively analyze video performance data, read retention curves, identify drops in viewership, and implement lightning-fast edits to improve metrics
• Influencer Direction & Scripting: Identify key US driver-creators/influencers, brief them on raw footage needs, co-create scripts, and direct them to ensure the content matches ongoing US feed trends
• AI-Accelerated Workflow: Utilize cutting-edge AI and modern editing tools (for captions, animations, sound design, and formatting) to achieve extreme output speed and agility without losing a native, human touch
• Autonomy in the Pipeline: Own the US video pipeline entirely, ensuring content ships smoothly without technical or operational bottlenecks.

How the Role Works with the Team

• You own US content editing, production, and the data-driven read on what performs in the US market (organic and paid)
• US Operations Lead: Sets core operational priorities, campaign milestones, and market deadlines
• US Community & Content Strategist: Sets overall US content strategy; you execute and build creative assets against it
• Social Media Lead: Manages feed operations (calendar, posting, captions); you collaborate closely on format proposals and market-fit
• US Driver-Creators & Influencers: Your direct line for sourcing raw material, perspective, and collaborative production

What We're Looking for

• Location & Overlap: Fully remote from Brazil, working with a startup pace and maintaining fluid communication with our team
• US Market Fluency (Strict Requirement): Native or near-native command of US English, with a deep understanding of US internet culture, idioms, humor, timing, and local gig-worker nuances (on the consumer side)
• Senior Experience: Around 10 years of experience in video editing/content creation, demonstrating a proven track record of content that performed and high professional accountability
• Startup & Testing Mindset: Comfortable with rapid experimentation, high volume, constant A/B testing, and pivoting based on data
• Technical Mastery: Advanced video editing skills, shortcuts, and an optimized setup built for high-speed delivery

Nice to have

• Direct experience creating content or marketing assets for US mobility/gig brands (e.g., Uber, Lyft) or tech startups entering the US market
• Background in analyzing digital consumer behavior or advanced social media retention analytics

Profile We Value

• Most High Accountability: Someone who connects all the dots independently, drives the process forward, and takes full ownership of results
• Speed & Agility: The ability to push out high-quality pieces in volume, preparing a robust asset pipeline ahead of our major US launch in August.
