About PointsFly

PointsFly is building an AI-powered travel-rewards platform to help people understand and use credit-card points and airline and hotel loyalty rewards more effectively. Starting with India, PointsFly aims to make transfer options, redemption choices, and travel-rewards opportunities clearer so users can get more value from flights and hotel stays.

The opportunity

We are looking for a sharp, platform-aware Video Editor who can turn credit-card points, airline miles, hotel rewards, travel deals, and product stories into short-form videos people choose to watch and save. You will edit for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and other priority channels, balancing speed with strong hooks, clear explanations, aspirational travel energy, and brand consistency. This role suits an editor who understands that performance comes from pacing and message clarity, not effects alone.

What you will do

Edit platform-native videos: produce polished vertical and square content for Reels, Shorts, paid social, launches, and campaign use.

Build stronger openings: shape the first seconds around a clear benefit, surprising points insight, destination, deal, or common rewards mistake.

Make complex ideas simple: use pacing, captions, screen highlights, visual comparisons, and on-screen calculations to explain points, cash values, and transfer choices clearly.

Create an aspirational story: combine talking-head footage, travel visuals, product screens, and motion graphics without losing accuracy or the speaker's natural voice.

Add branded graphics: design captions, callouts, lower thirds, simple motion graphics, maps, price comparisons, and transitions that improve comprehension.

Repurpose long-form content: turn product walkthroughs, interviews, travel footage, podcasts, and research into multiple focused short-form assets.

Polish picture and sound: handle basic color correction, audio cleanup, music selection, sound design, and export quality.

Protect factual accuracy: ensure edits preserve the approved numbers, programme names, dates, disclaimers, and meaning of each rewards claim.

Collaborate on concepts: work with Marketing and rewards subject-matter experts on briefs, scripts, shot lists, edits, and revisions.

Manage production flow: organize footage and project files, maintain naming and version standards, and meet the agreed publishing cadence.

Learn from performance: review watch time, completion, engagement, and audience feedback to improve future edits.

What we are looking for

A portfolio that demonstrates strong short-form pacing, captions, hooks, and visual storytelling.

Hands-on proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, or a comparable editing workflow.

Working knowledge of motion graphics in After Effects or an equivalent tool.

A strong sense of timing, composition, typography, music, and sound design for mobile-first consumer content.

Ability to understand a brief, ask useful questions, manage feedback, and deliver clean revisions on schedule.

Attention to numbers, programme names, export specifications, aspect ratios, safe zones, subtitles, file organisation, and version control.

Good judgment about trends: able to use relevant formats without making the brand feel generic or forced.

Nice to have

Experience editing travel, personal-finance, credit-card, fintech, educational, or founder-led content.

Personal familiarity with credit-card points, airline miles, hotel loyalty programmes, or travel deals.

Basic shooting, lighting, screen-recording, thumbnail, map-animation, or simple animation skills.

Experience creating multiple variants for organic and paid social campaigns.

Comfort using AI-assisted transcription, rough-cut, cleanup, or ideation tools while maintaining quality control.

How success will be measured

Consistent delivery against the agreed publishing cadence and turnaround times.

Audience retention, completion rate, replays, engagement, and qualified traffic where relevant.

Clarity of message and quality of hooks, pacing, captions, audio, and brand execution.

Efficiency of the review process, including accuracy and responsiveness to feedback.

Growth in the volume of usable content created from each recording or campaign asset.
