About Autopilot
Autopilot makes professional-style investing accessible through an app that lets people follow portfolios or create their own fund for others to follow. Help us tell the stories behind money, investing, and culture.

Role Overview
Autopilot is building a higher-volume content engine and is looking for freelance video editors who can turn raw footage, creator submissions, app visuals, B-roll, and scripts into sharp short-form videos.

This is a pipeline role. We may not have a constant full-time volume immediately, but we want strong editors available as our production output scales. Bring your taste, own the edit, and help us make every second count.

What you'll do

Edit short-form organic and paid social videos

Work with raw creator footage, talking-head videos, app visuals, B-roll, and motion assets

Make fast, native-feeling edits for TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and X

Collaborate on hooks, pacing, captions, and visual storytelling

Handle quick-turn projects when needed

What we're looking for

Strong examples of short-form social editing

Good pacing, taste, and understanding of what keeps attention

Experience with creator, UGC, finance, business, or consumer-app content is a plus

Ability to work from clear briefs and turn around edits quickly

Comfort with project-based freelance work

Compensation
Project-based / contract. Share your typical rate per short-form video and availability. Scope and payment are agreed for each project.

Equal Employment Opportunity
Autopilot is an equal opportunity employer.
