The posting

This role is for one of our clients

Compensation: $70 - $120 per hour

Location: Remote (United States) Employment Type: Full-Time, W-2 Work Schedule: 40 Hours per Week

Job Overview

Join a leading AI lab's cutting-edge Generative AI team and contribute to the development of next-generation AI models. We are looking for an experienced Commercial Video Editor and Post-Production Specialist with strong hands-on expertise in commercial editing, agency workflows, and professional video finishing.

In this role, you will apply your editorial judgment and post-production expertise to help improve how advanced AI models understand and execute professional video editing workflows. You will create realistic editing challenges, develop high-quality reference edits, and evaluate AI-generated video content for creative quality, technical accuracy, and production readiness.

The ideal candidate has a strong portfolio of professionally delivered commercial and branded content, expert proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, and experience managing projects from initial edits through final delivery across multiple platforms and formats.

This is a fully remote, full-time W-2 employment opportunity for candidates based in the United States. The position requires a dedicated commitment of 40 hours per week, Monday through Friday.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

  • Collaborate with AI research teams to identify knowledge gaps and improve model performance in commercial video editing, post-production, pacing, continuity, color grading, versioning, and final delivery.
  • Design realistic editing tasks based on professional agency and commercial production workflows, including hero edits, campaign cutdowns, aspect-ratio adaptations, and localized versions.
  • Produce high-quality reference edits using Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, maintaining editable timelines and organized project files.
  • Evaluate AI-generated video edits for editorial quality, pacing, rhythm, continuity, audio synchronization, color accuracy, title safety, and technical delivery requirements.
  • Provide clear, structured written feedback identifying creative and technical issues in AI-generated outputs.
  • Develop editing guidelines, evaluation rubrics, and quality-control standards for commercial editing and post-production workflows.
  • Apply technical validation methods and tools such as FFmpeg to assess video exports, formats, and delivery specifications.
  • Collaborate with other creative professionals and subject matter experts to maintain consistency and accuracy across AI training and evaluation datasets.

Required Qualifications

  • 5+ years of professional experience in commercial video editing, agency editing, or post-production.
  • Demonstrated experience delivering commercial projects for editorial houses, post-production studios, advertising agencies, production companies, or established in-house brand studios.
  • A strong portfolio featuring professionally shipped work, preferably with recognizable brand and campaign credits. Student projects, crowd-rating assignments, and data-labeling work will not qualify as professional editing experience.
  • Expert-level, hands-on proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
  • Working knowledge of Avid Media Composer and Adobe After Effects for conforming, temporary compositions, and project handoffs.
  • Strong understanding of editable project files and post-production interchange formats, including .prproj, .drp, AAF, XML, and EDL.
  • Experience preparing ProRes and DNxHR masters and managing project handoffs to color grading, VFX, and audio teams.
  • Familiarity with FFmpeg or equivalent command-line tools for video transcoding, media probing, and batch exports.
  • Practical experience with Rec.709 color grading and finishing in DaVinci Resolve, including skin-tone correction and LUT management.
  • Extensive experience editing and versioning content for broadcast, online platforms, and social media.
  • Ability to create multiple campaign versions, including :60 to :06 cutdowns, 16:9, 1:1, 4:5, and 9:16 formats, localized versions, re-tagged edits, and subtitled content.
  • Understanding of platform-specific delivery requirements, including safe areas, audio loudness standards, and slate specifications.
  • Hands-on familiarity with generative video and AI-powered editing tools such as Runway, Kling, Luma, Sora, Topaz, Adobe Firefly, and Generative Extend.
  • Strong editorial judgment to distinguish genuinely high-quality AI-generated content from outputs that may appear convincing but contain creative or technical flaws.
  • Excellent written communication skills and the ability to explain editorial decisions and technical feedback clearly.
  • Availability to commit at least 40 hours per week on weekdays.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience working on high-volume commercial campaigns and managing multiple deliverables under tight production timelines.
  • Familiarity with end-to-end post-production workflows, including editing, conforming, color grading, sound, VFX coordination, and final mastering.
  • Experience adapting creative content for different audiences, markets, platforms, and aspect ratios.
  • Exposure to AI model evaluation, synthetic training data creation, or developing quality-assessment frameworks for creative workflows.

Employment Details

  • Work Arrangement: Fully Remote
  • Location Eligibility: United States
  • Employment Type: Full-Time, W-2
  • Work Schedule: 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday
  • Engagement: Employment with an opportunity to work directly within a leading AI lab's extended workforce.
