Job Description
Not a generalist editor.
Not someone who cuts talking head videos.
Someone who understands how to edit science.
Our channel produces long-form scientific explainer content. The kind of video where the edit doesn't just illustrate the script — it makes the science land harder.
Scripts and visual direction come from the founder. Your job is to take that material and make it feel inevitable — the right cut at the right moment, the right music under the right idea, transitions that serve the story not the showreel.
What this role actually is: Full edit — assembly, pacing, transitions, music selection, sound design, colour. Every video should feel like it was made by someone who genuinely understood what they were editing, not just someone who was handed footage.
On-site in Mumbai. No remote.
What makes you a fit
• You have edited long-form content before — documentary or explainer format ideally.
• You think about music the way a director thinks about it — not background, foreground.
• You know the difference between a cut that serves the audience and a cut that serves your portfolio.
• You use AI tools to work faster without letting them replace your judgment.
Do not apply if
• You have only edited short-form or social content.
• You need a detailed brief to make a creative decision.
• You are looking for a large team with clear process — there isn't one yet.
How to apply
• Send us an email. Not a portfolio link. Not a resume. An email.
• Find one scientific explainer video on YouTube — any channel, your choice — that you think is edited exceptionally well. Send us the link.
• Then tell us three specific editing decisions that make it work. Not "great pacing" or "good music." Tell us the exact moment, the exact choice, and exactly why it works.
• Email it to [email protected].
That email is your application. If it's good, we'll reply with an actual edit assignment.
The details
• ₹8–12 LPA
• 100% on-site, Mumbai
• Direct founder exposure from day one
