Video Editor for Commercial Glass And Door Company

Full-Time Video Editor for Commercial Glass & Door Company

About Our Company

We are a commercial glass, door service, and emergency board-up company based in Southern California. We help businesses keep their storefronts, doors, and glass safe, secure, functional, and professional-looking.

We are building a library of training videos, client education videos, YouTube videos, and short social media videos. We want our content to be useful, clear, professional, and fun to watch.

We value honesty, open communication, good work, and respect for people’s time.

We want someone who will tell us the truth, ask questions when something is unclear, and communicate early if there is a problem with a deadline or assignment.

We do not expect perfection, especially while someone is learning. We do expect reliability, effort, attention to detail, and a willingness to receive feedback and improve.

We believe good systems make work easier for everyone, and we want to work with someone who takes pride in helping us create useful, organized, high-quality videos.

We are looking for a full-time Video Editor to help us turn raw video footage into polished, useful, and engaging videos.

You will be watching longer raw videos and pulling out the best parts to create:

• Long-form training videos
• Step-by-step internal training videos
• Customer-facing educational videos
• YouTube videos
• YouTube Shorts
• TikTok videos
• Instagram Reels
• Short promotional or informational videos

This is a full-time role. The workload may vary from week to week, but we do not expect more than 40 hours per week.

This position offers flexible hours. You may work during the hours that are best for you and your family, as long as you meet deadlines, communicate clearly, and send a daily report of what was completed.

We are located in California. At first, we will likely have short daily tea ---------- etings. Later, we expect to reduce this to a weekly tea ---------- eting. Our preferred meeting time is around 5:00 PM California time, which is usually around 8:00–9:00 AM Philippine Time depending on daylight savings.

We respect our employees’ free time. We do not expect you to work in the middle of the night. We want someone who can work normal Philippine daytime hours and manage their work responsibly.

We are looking for someone who can work independently, manage their own tasks, meet deadlines, and ask questions when something is unclear.

It is okay not to know everything right away. It is not okay to disappear, guess, or stay silent when you need clarification. We want someone who communicates clearly and is open to feedback.

This should be your primary full-time position. Please do not apply if you are trying to work multiple full-time jobs at the same time.

Your responsibilities may include:

• Reviewing raw video footage and identifying the best usable clips
• Editing long training videos from raw footage
• Creating short social media clips from longer videos

For training videos, you may need to provide:

• A short outline of what was explained
• Step-by-step process notes
• Key points covered in the video

You may use AI tools to help create outlines or summaries, but you must understand the English content well enough to check whether the outline is accurate. We need someone with strong English comprehension who can understand the video content, not just run it through AI or translation software.

We are also building a video library for both employee training and customer education.

You may help organize edited videos into a clear video library so our team can find and use them later.

• Noting where important steps, examples, or explanations appear in the video
• Identifying which clips should become short videos, training clips, or customer-facing marketing videos
• Keeping video file names, folders, and descriptions organized
• Helping us build a searchable library of training and marketing videos

For technical training videos, we need someone who can understand the content well enough to create a useful outline. For customer-facing videos, we need someone who can understand the message well enough to help us turn the video into clear, helpful, and interesting content.
