Are you excited about working for a technology company that is securing the web? Are you looking for flexible hours working remotely from anywhere in the United States? If so, this may be your dream job!
We’re looking for a highly skilled Video Editor with an expertise in creating short-form content to create engaging videos for YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Facebook Reels.
The hourly rate is $35 - $50 per hour depending on experience.
You'll work with a talented and motivated team that is friendly, fast-moving, self-managing, and highly capable with a sense of humor. Our team's family time is important; we won't typically require long hours when we can avoid it, which is almost always. Our entire team works remotely using Slack for casual interaction. There's no micro-management here—we trust that you will see tasks through to completion and communicate with your fellow team members or ask for help when needed.
At Defiant, ‘trust’ is the attribute we value most highly among our team members. We need to know that you can grab a task, communicate clearly with stakeholders, and see the task to completion with superb attention to detail.
We use apps like Slack, FogBugz, GitHub, and Google Apps for our workflow.
The ideal candidate understands social media trends, audience engagement strategies, and platform algorithms, and can produce high-energy, visually compelling videos that capture attention quickly.
While expertise in short-form video editing is the top priority, a strong understanding of WordPress and cybersecurity is a plus.
Candidates with experience in tech-focused content, cybersecurity topics, or WordPress will be preferred.
1+ years of experience in video editing, with a strong portfolio showcasing short-form content.
Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or similar editing software. (Davinci Resolve Preferred)
Strong understanding of platform-specific trends, modern short form video best practices, engagement tactics, and viral content strategies.
Experience with motion graphics, typography, and sound design.
Experience with marketing metrics, analytics reporting, and brand goal and strategy alignment.
Ability to manage multiple projects with fast turnaround times while maintaining high quality.
WordPress Expertise – Familiarity with WordPress, WordPress security, plugins (e.g., Wordfence), website management, and common vulnerabilities.
Cybersecurity Knowledge – Understanding of cybersecurity concepts, malware, firewalls, and bug bounty programs.
Tech & Software Knowledge – Experience editing educational or technical content, particularly in cybersecurity, web development, or IT-related fields.
Hiring Process
We review all applications submitted and respond to all candidates typically within one to two weeks. All interviews are done remotely with no travel involved.
All positions require a trial period of approximately 2-3 weeks with a minimum commitment of 10 hours per week. You will be paid for this short-term contract, and it will be used to evaluate whether both parties want to pursue an ongoing, regular employment relationship.
All offers of employment are contingent on successful completion of a background check. The results of the background check are considered as they relate to the position and do not automatically disqualify someone from an offer of employment with the company.
Telecommuting and flexible working hours, with a company that has been 100% remote for more than a decade.
