Job description
Title: Lead Video Editor
Job Type: Contract
Contract Length: 6+ months
Target Start Date: ASAP
Work Location/Structure: Foster City, CA (Hybrid – 3 days on-site, 2 remote)

About the Opportunity:

Our client, a leader in Autonomous Vehicle Technology, is looking for a skilled Lead Video Editor to join their team for a 6+ month engagement. This project involves owning the end-to-end editorial process for brand campaigns, internal communications, product demos, and social content, from pre-production collaboration to final delivery. This is a high-impact role that requires a self-motivated professional who can hit the ground running and deliver results quickly.

Key Responsibilities & Deliverables:

This role is focused on the successful completion of specific tasks and deliverables. Your responsibilities will include:
  • Lead editing and post-production for brand and marketing content, ensuring creative and technical excellence.
  • Engage early in pre-production: collaborate with producers, directors, and creative leads on scripts, outlines, and shot lists to anticipate editorial flow.
  • Serve as on-set DIT when needed: manage media ingest, data integrity, color LUTs, log profiles, backups, and workflow handoffs.
  • Oversee the post pipeline: rough cuts, fine cuts, graphics integration, sound design, and finishing, delegating effectively.
Mentor junior editors and freelancers, and contribute to documentation and workflow playbooks to help scale editorial operations.

Required Skills & Experience:

We are looking for someone with a proven track record of successful contract engagements. The ideal candidate will have:
  • 8+ years of professional editing experience across brand, product, event, and social content.
  • Deep expertise in Adobe Creative Suite (Premiere, After Effects, Audition); familiarity with DaVinci Resolve and Frame.io. This isn't a learning role—you need to be a subject matter expert.
  • Proven ability to thrive in a tech or corporate environment, balancing strategy and storytelling.
  • Experience contributing to pre-production planning and on-set DIT proficiency (media management, data wrangling, color pipeline).
  • Strong communication skills to provide clear and concise status updates to the project team, and a highly organized approach to managing multiple concurrent projects.
