We're CollegeWalk and we're hiring a US-based editor to take our assembly cuts to rough cuts using our in-house software plus Descript. This is a full-time, long-term role for someone who wants steady work and can plug in deeply with our team.
What you'll do:
- Take assembly cuts and turn them into tight, rough cuts ready for final polish
- Work primarily in our proprietary software and Descript (we'll train you on ours — if you know Descript, you'll pick it up fast)
- Edit short-form vertical content for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts
- Ship high volume without letting quality slip
Who we're looking for:
- Strong taste. This is the #1 thing. You understand pacing, when to cut, when to let a beat breathe, what makes a hook land, and what kills a short. We don't care about flashy effects — we care that your edits feel right.
- Comfortable with long hours. This is essentially a full-time role and we need someone who can actually put in the time.
- Reliable, communicative, and easy to work with
- Based in the US
- Deadline-driven — hours are flexible as long as the work ships on time
Rate: $15-$25/hr depending on experience and portfolio. Strong performers move up quickly.
To apply, please include:
1. Links to 2-3 short-form edits you're proud of (TikTok/Reels/Shorts). Portfolio over cover letter — we'll judge primarily on the work.
2. One sentence on why you think each piece works. We want to see how you think about editing, not just what you've made.
3. Your availability and how many hours/week you're realistically looking for.
We read every application that includes a portfolio. Generic AI-written proposals with no links will be skipped.
Looking forward to seeing your work.
