Video Editor

Accountabilities:: As a Video Editor and Quality Assurance Specialist, you will assess video content against professional production standards, provide structured feedback, and help improve the quality of AI-generated outputs. Your responsibilities will include: Review human-edited and AI-generated videos for pacing, continuity, transitions, shot selection, storytelling, visual consistency, and overall production quality. Conduct technical quality checks to identify frame-rate inconsistencies, dropped frames, codec issues, color mismatches, audio synchronization problems, compression artifacts, and export defects. Compare AI-generated video outputs to identify visual artifacts, unnatural motion, temporal inconsistencies, continuity issues, and editing-quality problems. Develop expert-level editing scenarios, reference examples, quality assessments, and structured feedback to support AI training projects. Verify that video deliverables comply with creative briefs, editing instructions, style guides, technical specifications, and project-specific evaluation criteria. Document editing errors clearly, explain their impact on the final output, and recommend appropriate corrections using professional editing terminology. Support quality calibration by helping establish consistent evaluation standards across reviewers, editors, and video assessment workflows. Ensure reviewed content meets professional expectations for visual storytelling, audiovisual coherence, technical delivery, and production quality. Requirements: The ideal candidate will bring substantial professional video editing experience, advanced technical knowledge, and the ability to assess creative work objectively. The following qualifications are required or preferred: At least 5 years of professional video editing experience in film, television, broadcast, advertising, commercial production, digital media, or a related post-production environment.

Ability to identify subtle editing defects, including jump cuts, continuity errors, dropped frames, audio drift, inconsistent color, compression artifacts, inappropriate transitions, and technical delivery issues. Excellent analytical judgment and attention to detail, with the ability to explain why an edit meets or falls short of professional standards. Experience reviewing other editors' work, providing structured feedback, conducting technical quality control, or supervising post-production workflows. A reliable, self-directed working style and the ability to maintain consistent quality in a remote contractor environment across time zones. Previous experience with AI-generated video evaluation, AI data training, video annotation, multimedia quality assurance, or rubric-based evaluation is a strong advantage.
