Video Editor (Short-form)

FOKUS AI EDUCATION SDN BHD-Kuala Lumpur, Malásia

About Us
Fokuslah is an education startup. We make short-form videos that help students learn fast and make fewer mistakes. We’re hiring a short-form Video Editor with basic shooting experience.
Editing is the main skill. Shooting is supporting. Your job is to stop the scroll, hold attention, and deliver a clear payoff.

What You’ll Do

  • Edit high-retention short videos (15-60s) for TikTok & Reels
  • Build strong structure:hook (1-3s) → build → payoff / “aha”.
  • Create clean, readable captions, sharp pacing, and strong rhythm.
  • Test multiple hooks/openings, iterate fast, and improve weak edits.
  • Produce ad-ready edits with clear CTAs and platform-specific formats.
  • Keep footage and edits organized for reuse and scaling.

Shooting (Basic)

When needed, capture simple, clean footage:

  • Talking-head videos
  • Product demos
  • Basic classroom/explainer setups
  • Street Interview

You should be comfortable with:

  • Basic framing
  • Simple lighting
  • Clean audio

What We Care About

  • You understand short-form storytelling and attention.
  • You can explain why an edit works.
  • You think in seconds and frames, not minutes.
  • You’re fast, detail-oriented, and enjoy improving raw ideas.

Requirements:

  • Proven experience editing short-form video
  • Strong skills in Premiere / Final Cut / After Effects / CapCut (any is fine)
  • Great pacing, captioning, and rhythm
  • Basic shooting experience (camera/lighting/audio)
  • Comfortable iterating often and meeting tight deadlines

Nice to Have

  • Education/explainer content experience
  • Familiar with retention/drop-off and short-form analytics
  • Can suggest better hooks/reframes, not just execute

Why This Role

Your edits will directly impact growth. If you care about making ideas land and enjoy shipping fast, you’ll fit in.
