YouTube Video Editor (Full-Time, Remote - South America)

AI overview

Edit engaging explainer-style YouTube tutorials and contribute to a growing channel focused on AI, while collaborating with a diverse remote team and optimizing video production workflows.

We are looking for a full-time YouTube Video Editor based in South America to join our remote content team.

You will work on a fast-growing YouTube channel with 45K+ subscribers and a 16K+ member community. Our content focuses on AI tools, vibe coding, AI agents, automation, AI websites, and AI apps.

Our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@zinhoautomates/videos
Our Skool community: https://www.skool.com/ai-launchpad/about 

About the Content

Our videos are primarily explainer-style tutorials, featuring head-talking demonstrations of AI tools. Each video typically includes:

  • Camera footage of the creator

  • Screen recordings showing tools in action

  • Animations and visual explanations/effects

Examples of topics include using tools like Claude Code, Google AI Studio, and building AI-powered websites and apps.

Videos are typically:

  • 8–12 minutes final length

  • 20–30 minutes raw footage

Because we use a teleprompter, the raw footage is already very clean and requires minimal cutting. 

Team Structure

You will join a small remote team of 5–10 people, including:

  • Scriptwriters
  • Content creator
  • Editors
  • Thumbnail designers
  • Project managers

Workflow (Time Zone Optimized)

Our production process is designed around global time zones:

  1. Asia – Scriptwriter writes the script
  2. Europe – Script is reviewed and recorded by the creator
  3. South America (your role) – You edit the video once the footage is uploaded

When the creator uploads the files (camera + screen recordings), your workday begins.

You will have roughly 8–9 hours to edit the video, including:

  • Cutting mistakes
  • Matching camera footage with screen recordings
  • Adding animations and vfx (we have ai tools for creating animations, feel free to check out our existing content also).

The final video is uploaded to Frame.io, where the content manager in Asia reviews it.

This workflow allows us to publish videos faster by working across time zones.

Tools We Use

  • Premiere Pro / Final Cut / After Effects (or similar)
  • Frame.io
  • Remotion (we have a paid plan)
  • Higgsfield Vibe Motion (we have a paid plan)

If you can create custom animations & vfx thats a big plus.

Requirements

  • Experienced YouTube video editor
  • Strong sense of pacing and storytelling
  • Comfortable editing tutorial/explainer content
  • Ability to work independently and meet deadlines
  • Ability to get a full video done in 8/9 hours 
  • Work full-time for our company 
  • 4/5 videos a week

Benefits

  • Salary between $1,500 – $2,000/month depending on experience and quality
  • Fully remote position – work from anywhere in South America

  • Consistent workload – steady flow of videos every week
  • Work with a fast-growing YouTube channel (45K+ subscribers) and 16K+ community
  • Opportunity to work with cutting-edge AI tools and content
