Who We Are

7TI empowers lives digitally, connecting top talent with global leaders and offering elite training in a thriving community, so you can build a future-proof remote career with growth and freedom.


Who We're Looking For

We are seeking an exceptionally skilled, DaVinci Resolve-native Video Editor to drive the production of high-converting social media videos and long-form webcasts. If you are passionate about post-production, love the craft of storytelling, and stay at the forefront of AI-assisted editing tools, you will thrive in this environment. This is a full-time remote position for someone who genuinely loves this type of work, possesses excellent people skills, uncompromising integrity, acute attention to detail, and a proactive mindset. You must be eager to work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week on a dedicated night shift from 1:00 AM – 9:00 AM PH Time to maintain real-time collaboration with our US team (9:00 AM – 5:00 PM PST).


About us: Our division, The Booked Method, creates social content and Meta ads that bring home service businesses (roofers, contractors and similar) real customers. You'll fit here if you're honest and reliable, say what you think, take feedback well, and want to be the best at what you do.


Responsibilities

  • Edit engaging, high-retention short-form videos optimized for Instagram, TikTok, and Meta platforms.
  • Implement AI-assisted workflows to accelerate turnaround speed and streamline editing efficiency.
  • Generate AI b-roll, graphics and stylized captions where they improve the edit. Everything must look real and premium; never invent jobs, crews or homes that weren't filmed.
  • Ingest and edit long-form CSA webcast footage recorded remotely via Riverside.fm into polished full episodes, delivered in monthly batches.
  • Deliver an average of 5 finished social edits daily to client standards, scaling to 10 edits daily as AI workflows mature.
  • Maintain active, transparent daily communication with leadership and team members across Slack and Frame.io.
  • Edit for The Booked Method's home service clients, our founder's personal brand, and CSA webcasts.
  • Find the strongest soundbites and moments in raw talking-head and job site footage, sometimes from a loose brief and your own judgment.
  • Cut multiple hook versions of ads for testing.
  • Handle on-screen captions and text, music and sound design, color grading and audio cleanup.
  • Use Claude with DaVinci Resolve to set up projects and build timelines from raw footage.
  • Deliver first cuts within 2 business days of receiving footage, about 90% there, ready for one internal and one client revision round.


Delivery Standards (every edit)

  • Paid ads: 9:16 and 4:5. Organic social: 9:16. CSA webcasts: 16:9.
  • MP4, H.264, 25 Mbps.
  • Captions on most social edits. No typos in any on-screen text.
  • All text and captions kept clear of Meta's on-screen buttons and overlays (safe zones).
  • Hook stops the scroll in the first 3 seconds; tight pacing with no dead air; a clear message and call to action a homeowner gets instantly.
  • Licensed sources only: Artlist and Suno for music, Artlist for sound design, ElevenLabs for voice.


Skills and Requirements

  • Minimum of a High School diploma and 3+ years of experience in video editing and post-production.
  • Native, high-level proficiency in DaVinci Resolve is strictly required (DaVinci Resolve Native only).
  • Hands-on experience with generative AI video and creative tools such as Higgsfield, ChatGPT, and Claude.
  • Deep understanding of social media video structure, including viral hooks, compelling CTAs, and organic vs. paid formats.
  • Strong technical grasp of what constitutes a winning, high-converting Meta ad.
  • Proven track record delivering creative and unique edits across diverse genres.
  • Previous experience editing for home service companies or a background in direct response/sales is highly advantageous.
  • Personal qualities: Teachable, excited, creative, driven to overdeliver, and open to continuous experimentation.
  • Hands-on experience editing Meta ads (hooks, test versions, direct response).
  • Fluent written and spoken English, strong enough to pick the best soundbites from long interviews.
  • A capable editing computer and a reliable internet connection. You'll also edit remotely on our machines through Parsec.
  • Internet speed of at least 200 Mbps download and 30 Mbps upload.
  • A dedicated role: no outside clients or freelance work, during or outside your shift.
  • Tools you'll use: DaVinci Resolve, Parsec, Frame.io, Slack, Google Drive, Riverside.fm, Artlist, Suno, ElevenLabs, Higgsfield, Claude.
