Video Editor

Torrance, California, United States

Who we are

Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America’s drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.

As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems America and its allies needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter future conflicts, or else win them.

We’re building a lean Marketing organization of creatives and operators who want to move fast, take extreme ownership, build a brand from the ground up, and tell the Neros story.

What you will be doing

You’ll own Neros’ entire video post-production pipeline: edit, color, and sound, as well as asset management, versioning, and platform-specific formatting. Partnering with videographers and designers on the Marketing team, you’ll produce long-form docu-style edits, social cut downs, product sizzle reels, factory tours, company milestone announcements, and anything else we need to tell the Neros story.

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end video editing workflow at Neros including edit, color, sound, VFX, and formatting
  • Manage multiple concurrent video projects of varying scope and complexity
  • Manage multi-platform versioning for web, social, and brand activations
  • Work closely with Marketing leadership to implement rapid feedback loops

You should have the following

  • 5+ years in video editing, preferably in action sports, motor sports, defense, aerospace, robotics, tech, or hardware industries
  • Expert level experience in editing software (Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, and a professional audio workflow (Pro Tools, Audition, or similar)
  • Demonstrated experience delivering against a spectrum of storytelling such as docu-style, high-energy sizzles, and commercial-grade output
  • Demonstrated experience shaping narrative in visual storytelling
  • Demonstrated experience owning a digital asset management tool (Frame, BrandFolder, etc.)
  • Enthusiasm for low-structure, high velocity startups where you’ll lean on your judgment and creative instincts more than pre-defined process
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Meticulous attention to detail
  • A portfolio that clearly delineates where editing was a sole versus shared responsibility, and what specific deliverables you owned in group efforts

Nice to have

  • Experience with Cinema 4D, Blender, or Houdini
  • Experience with motion design

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
