From the employer
We are hiring a Senior Video Editor at SparX The Podcast (Deeptech)
Host: Mukesh Bansal
Team: Creative Team
Type: Full-Time / Contract
Vibe: Cinematic | Vibrant | Futuristic
ABOUT SPARX
SparX is one of India's most ambitious deeptech podcasts, hosted by Mukesh Bansal. The conversations go deep—AI, semiconductors, space, biotech, robotics, and the people building the frontier.
That premise is a gift and a problem. The ideas are extraordinary, but they're abstract. A guest describes a breakthrough in chip fabrication or protein folding, and most of the audience nods without seeing it. The editor's job is to make them see it—to turn a talking-head conversation into something that looks and feels like a modern streaming documentary. That's the whole game. Everything below serves it.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own the full visual edit of episodes: Multi-cam sync and cutting across master, guest, and host angles, with cuts that feel intentional, never mechanical.
Cut trailers and hook-driven shorts that stop the scroll in the first five seconds and carry a story to the last frame.
Colour grade to a vibrant, industry-standard cinematic finish—rich, with natural skin tones and clean contrast, consistent across every angle.
Design on-brand motion graphics, lower thirds, and titles that feel premium, clean, and minimal—never templated.
Shape sound design and audio to broadcast quality.
Make hard ideas legible: Support the conversation with B-roll, archival, motion, and data visualisation where it earns its place.
Own the look end to end and bring ideas we didn't ask for.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Not skills on a checklist. These instincts:
Agency: You decide without being told. You notice the boring 40 seconds and fix it.
Taste: You know when not to add the effect. Restraint is a skill.
Storytelling over decoration: Every cut, graphic, and sound serves the narrative. If it's just "cool," it's clutter.
The visualization instinct: You read "they shrank the transistor to 2 nanometers" and immediately think in pictures.
Ownership: You treat the edit like it's yours—because it is.
WHAT YOU BRING
Essential:
3+ years of experience in cinematic, narrative-driven editing.
Fluency in Premiere Pro / DaVinci Resolve / After Effects (or equivalent).
A real eye for colour, motion, and sound—not just software operation.
Ability to turn complex topics into clear, gripping visuals.
Ownership of projects and reliable delivery with minimal hand-holding.
Bonus:
Experience with documentary or explainer-style content.
Depth in motion design and data visualisation.
Comfort using AI tools to generate or enhance visuals.
An interest in technology, science, or startups.
THE BAR WE WORK TO
The standard we're aiming for. Study how they're built, not just what they look like:
Vox / Johnny Harris / Cleo Abram (Huge If True): Narrative structure, cinematic tension, making complexity feel effortless.
Netflix science documentaries / Bloomberg long-form: Colour, restraint, sound design, data-driven storytelling with polish.
We want someone who pushes it further than we imagined, rather than someone who can follow a brief.
Not this one either?
