Job Description

Fireflies.ai builds AI meeting and work assistants used by millions of people. We have a large archive of unedited footage: a CNBC appearance, a cricket press conference at the ETPL, an ISB talk, a company offsite in Thailand, and a growing stream of founder content shot on iPhone and FX3. Almost none of it has been cut.

We are looking for one editor to own that archive and turn it into reels, montages and short films that look like they came out of a film production, not a corporate marketing team. This is not a template-and-captions job.

What you will do
  • Cut raw multi-camera and single-camera footage into 15 to 60 second vertical reels, and occasional 60 to 180 second brand pieces
  • Deliver native vertical at 1080 by 1920. Not horizontal with bars, not a centre crop
  • Colour grade to a consistent, film-like look. We shoot log and we care about skin tones
  • Keep the frame working at all times. Cutaways, inserts, screen captures, picture-in-picture, kinetic type. Dead frames are the failure mode
  • Hold a median shot length of roughly 1 to 2 seconds across a cut, or run longer shots only when something inside the frame is moving
  • Burn in captions with a type treatment that belongs to the piece, not a default preset
  • Build sound design and music selection, not just a bed under the voice
  • Work directly with our CEO on direction and iterate fast

Who we are looking for
You describe yourself as a filmmaker or director, not only an editor. Most editors can assemble a timeline. We need someone with a point of view about what a shot is doing.
  • A reel showing narrative or documentary style cutting, not template edits
  • Strong colour grading in DaVinci Resolve, or Premiere with a Resolve round trip
  • Ability to build B-roll coverage from unsorted source, not just assemble what you are handed
  • Sound design instinct, meaning you treat audio as half the edit
  • Motion design or animation, and the judgement to know when it strengthens a story rather than decorates it
  • Fast turnaround, direct communication over Slack, and overlap with US Pacific or Europe hours

Strong plus: you can operate a camera and shoot as well as cut. Experience with founder, creator or tech brand content.

Not a fit if: your portfolio is mostly wedding, real estate or stock template social edits, you need a full storyboard before starting, or you outsource the editing to a team we will not meet.

Process
  • Send your reel or portfolio, plus one line on the piece you are proudest of and why
  • Short call with our team
  • Paid test project. We send A-roll from one of our shoots plus an unsorted B-roll folder from a different shoot, and a rough direction. You return one cut. We pay regardless of outcome
  • If the test lands, we move to an ongoing arrangement or a full-time role

  • How to apply
    Reply with your reel or portfolio link, typical turnaround on a 30 second vertical cut from raw footage, and one example where you handled the colour grade yourself and what you were going for. Applications without a reel will not be reviewed.

    Values that are important to us:
    • You should be a great communicator and culture maintainer
    • Take a look at our culture document
    • You're data-driven and customer-focused
    • You value fast & incremental engineering cycles
    • You maintain design excellence and minimise complexity
    • You measure your results & automate when possible
    • You get 10% better at something every week
    • You have an internal compass and take accountability & initiative
    • We value overcommunication, candid feedback and a results-driven culture

    Perks and benefits:
    • Competitive compensation
    • Work remotely anywhere in your respective country
    • Ability to move laterally within a team and grow rapidly
    • Paid time off and flexible leave policy
    • No boss culture
    • Flexible working hours
    • LGBTQ+ friendly
    • Company offsites
    • Tech reimbursements
