[Hiring] Video Editor & Motion Designer @Weekday AI

Role Description

This role is for one of Weekday’s clients.

Our internal team builds its own production tools, co-creates tools with clients, and runs real research into what AI-native production can actually do. We're not following the playbook. We're writing it.

We need an editor who can live in both worlds: master of the craft as it exists today, and architect of where it goes next.

Who You Are

• Premiere Pro and After Effects are muscle memory.
• You can cut a podcast into a scroll-stopping reel, build motion graphics that feel alive, and capture attention in the first 3 seconds, every time.
• You’ve already been playing with Seedance, ChatGPT's Image 2.0, Gemini's Nano Banana Pro, and tools like Higgsfield, not as toys, but to see how far they can be pushed.
• You understand that prompting is a craft, that on-brand and high-quality don't happen by accident.
• The people who learn to direct these models now will define the next decade of this industry.

What You'll Actually Do

• Direct AI-generated video and image assets using Seedance, Image 2.0, Nano Banana Pro, and Higgsfield, to a professional, on-brand standard.
• Design eye-catching covers, thumbnails, and social posts that earn the click.
• Turn master content like podcasts into compelling short-form videos with high-quality animation.
• Edit and assemble raw footage with special effects, animation, and sound into polished, finished work.
• Work across podcasts, events, original social content, and showreels.
• Help shape the tools and workflows our team is building; your instincts will directly influence what we make next.
• Keep everything aligned to brand, on deadline, and at a quality bar you're proud of.

What You Bring

• A strong portfolio that proves you can edit diverse content into short-form video with excellent animation.
• Real command of Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, with solid motion graphics chops. Final Cut, Descript, or similar are a bonus.
• Hands-on understanding of leading AI image and video models (Seedance, ChatGPT Image 2.0, Gemini Nano Banana Pro) and tools like Higgsfield, including how to prompt them well for on-brand, high-quality output.
• An eye for detail, a sense for visual storytelling, and the creativity to make both craft and AI sing.
• The ability to own your work, manage multiple projects, and thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
• Sharp communication and a finger firmly on the pulse of the latest editing, animation, and AI trends.

Why This Is Worth Your Time

• You won't be a cog. This is an early-stage role with room to build a team around you and put your fingerprints on tools that don't exist yet.
• You'll work alongside expert creative professionals and marketing leaders, on problems most of the industry hasn't even started solving.
• Shape the future of production, not just your own edits.
• The traditional 9-to-6 isn't the only way to work, and traditional editing isn't the only way to create.
• Your work has a real impact. We're India's largest homegrown network of creative professionals.
• Get in early. We've found our solution-market fit and we're on a path to grow 100X over the next three years.
• Total ownership, total flexibility. We're remote-first and run on a jobs-to-be-done framework.
• We back people who take ownership. High agency, clear communication, and maximum transparency, both ways.
