About Flint

Founded in 2023, Flint is an AI-powered platform built for schools. In three years, we've partnered with hundreds of schools across the U.S. and internationally, supporting 750,000+ students.

We're a small, fast-moving team backed by top investors, and we're growing quickly.

The Role

We're looking for a contract video editor to support our growing video program. Today, that starts with founder-led content — our CEO records short-form videos talking to camera about AI in education, edtech, and what we're building at Flint — and we need someone to turn that raw footage into polished, scroll-stopping content for LinkedIn, YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Facebook.

Over time, the scope will expand. We're planning to move into higher-production videos, long-form YouTube content, and other formats as the program grows. We're looking for someone who can start with short-form editing and grow with us into more ambitious work.

You'll work directly with our marketing team and have a steady stream of content to edit each week. Here are a few examples of the content you'd be editing:

What You'll Do

Edit dozens of short-form videos per week from raw iPhone footage
Cut, trim, and reorder clips for pacing and impact — lead with hooks, keep it tight
Add captions and subtitles to every video
Overlay graphics, images, headlines, and on-screen text to reinforce key points (e.g., showing a LinkedIn comment being responded to, news headlines, data)
Clean up audio as needed (reduce echo, normalize levels)
Deliver videos formatted for multiple platforms (vertical for Reels/Shorts/TikTok, landscape or square as needed for LinkedIn/YouTube)
Turn around edits quickly — our posting cadence is daily, so responsiveness matters
Take feedback and coaching tips from our marketing lead to maintain a consistent visual style

Who You Are

You have a portfolio of short-form video edits — ideally founder-led, thought leadership, or creator content
You're fast. You can edit an <60 second short in under an hour
You have strong instincts for pacing, hooks, and what makes someone stop scrolling
You're comfortable with captioning, motion text, and basic motion graphics
You know the visual language of LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels — what performs on each platform
You're reliable and communicative. You hit deadlines and flag issues early
You edit in Premiere Pro and automate parts of your editing flow through the use of plugins

Nice to have

Experience with the full Adobe Creative Suite
Experience with long-form video editing (YouTube, mini-docs, interviews)
Experience editing content in the education, edtech, or B2B SaaS space
Familiarity with Buffer or similar social scheduling tools
Ability to suggest creative ideas — hooks, visual treatments, trending formats

Growth

This role starts with short-form, founder-led content — but our video ambitions are bigger. As the program matures, there will be opportunities to take on higher-production work, long-form content, and new formats. The right person will grow with us.

Compensation

$1,500/month for ongoing contract work. This is a contract role and does not include equity, health insurance, or other employee benefits.
