Job Description

About Us

We’re building a creative team around Samson, our technology and entertainment brand, and a new entertainment channel featuring brothers Ryan and Kyle.

Our content ranges from custom computer builds and dream room transformations to product experiments, challenges, and adventures. Samson focuses on technology and creative builds, while our new channel will explore broader entertainment built around personality, humor, competition, and unexpected experiences.

We’re looking for a talented video editor who can help turn these ideas into videos people want to click, watch, and share.

About the Role

Editing will be your primary responsibility, with opportunities to help film projects and contribute ideas throughout production.

You should be comfortable taking raw footage and finding the story: identifying the strongest opening, building anticipation, bringing out funny moments, and delivering a satisfying payoff. We want someone who brings creative judgment, takes ownership of their work, and enjoys collaborating with a small team.

What You’ll Do

  • Edit long-form YouTube videos, including technology builds, room transformations, product experiments, challenges, and entertainment content.
  • Create Shorts, Reels, and TikToks from larger projects and footage filmed specifically for short-form content.
  • Build compelling openings, clear stories, strong pacing, and engaging reveals.
  • Use music, sound design, graphics, captions, and visual effects to support the story and humor.
  • Handle audio cleanup, color correction, and final exports.
  • Collaborate with Ryan and Kyle on concepts, shot planning, and ways to make each video more entertaining.
  • Occasionally assist with filming, including camera setup, lighting, audio, B-roll, and capturing spontaneous moments.
  • Organize footage, project files, and media so projects stay easy to manage.
  • Incorporate feedback, meet agreed deadlines, and help improve our production workflow.
  • Review video performance with the team and apply what we learn to future edits.

What We’re Looking For

  • A portfolio showing strong editing, storytelling, pacing, and attention to detail.
  • Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro,
  • An understanding of YouTube and social media content, including hooks, viewer retention, and the different needs of long-form and short-form videos.
  • Good instincts for comedy, timing, music, and sound.
  • The ability to work independently while communicating clearly and taking feedback well.
  • Strong organization and the ability to manage multiple projects.
  • An interest in technology, builds, challenges, or personality-driven entertainment.

Experience with videography, lighting, audio recording, After Effects, motion graphics, or thumbnail design is a plus. Your portfolio and creative ability matter more than a specific degree.

Why Join Us?

You’ll work directly with the creators and have a meaningful voice in how our content develops. Projects will vary, and there will be room to contribute ideas, experiment with editing styles, and help shape the identity of a growing entertainment brand.

We’re looking for someone who gets excited about the creative process and wants to help make each video better than the last.
