Video Editor

About

• We're building the future of storytelling and video editing.
• We're a small team that moves fast and builds things we're proud of.
• We care obsessively about taste: in design, in product, in every detail.
• We're solving these hard problems.
• We're backed by a Tier-1 global fund, YC, and founders of billion dollar companies.

Cardboard is the agentic video editor. It actually watches your footage, so it can search across tens of gigs, pull the right clips, sync to the beat, and source everything else (music, graphics, sfx, etc.) it needs. The final cut comes out in your brand's language, and all of this happens inside the browser.

We're hiring a Founding Video Editor to make the videos the world sees, all of them shipped using Cardboard. We thought hard about the title, then realized you probably don't care.

What you'll actually do

• Make our social media videos. Vlogs, launch films, founder stories, testimonials, aftermovies. You think in hooks, beats, and pacing, and you care about the craft.
• Own our product and educational video. The assets on our website, the in-product videos, the tutorials on YouTube. The stuff that teaches people what Cardboard can do.
• Bring your own ideas, not just execution. You're terminally online, you live and breathe social media trends, and when something's worth making you just do it.
• Work closely with the growth team on product launches and social media campaigns.
• Shape the product. You'll be a power user of Cardboard, and your experience/ideas will shape our next product release.

Who you are

• You already make content on your own, without anyone asking. We'll look at your work before your resume.
• You have taste, and you're terminally online. Short-form or long-form, you can do both.
• You're fast. You'd rather post 5 things than agonize over one.
• You live on the edges of technology, you're an early adopter. You'd rather use an imperfect tool and help shape it than wait for the perfect one.
• We're building the tool we wished we had. You should feel that too.

What you get

You'd be surrounded by people who are absurdly good at what they do. One started coding at 11 and shipped an app with 6M+ downloads in high school. One got into CS engineering at 14 and has been working on distributed systems for 8+ years. One's an ex-founder who took a company to 1.2M users and $300M+ in transactions. That's the team. We're looking for someone who'll raise the bar on the creative side the way we have on the technical and business side. Apart from that you'd get:

• Fully remote role.
• Founding-team equity and top-of-the-market compensation.
• Unlimited leaves.
• Gym/wellness membership, transit benefits, and a WFH setup stipend.
• Unlimited tokens and access to the best video/audio/image models.
• Founders who treat content as a moat, not a cost center.
