GM Akash Ganesan is India's 66th Chess Grandmaster, National Champion, and a growing Tamil chess content creator. We're building a Tamil-first chess brand on Instagram, Facebook and YouTube — and we're looking for a video editor who can turn raw footage into content that actually stops people from scrolling.
You'll be working closely with our manager on a daily basis, editing Reels, YouTube videos, and short-form content. This is a ground-floor role in a fast-growing creator team—you'll have a direct impact on how the brand looks and feels.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
Edit Instagram Reels (30–90 seconds) from raw talking-head footage and B-roll
Cut and export YouTube videos (8–20 minutes) with intro, chapters, and end screens
Add subtitles, text overlays, and captions in Tamil and English
Sync background music and sound effects to match the content tone
Create simple motion graphics for chess board animations and highlights
Maintain a consistent visual style across all content
Organise raw footage, assets, and exports in Google Drive
Turnaround Reels within 24 hours and YouTube videos within 48 hours
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Proficient in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut — at least one tool you know well
Strong feel for pacing, hooks, and what makes short-form content engaging
Tamil-speaking — you'll be editing Tamil and Tanglish content daily
Eye for clean typography and consistent branding
Able to take a brief from the content manager and deliver without hand-holding
Bonus: familiarity with chess or interest in learning the basics
Bonus: experience with Canva, After Effects, or DaVinci Resolve
YOU'LL THRIVE HERE IF
You watch a lot of Tamil content and have strong opinions about what works
You move fast and don't need things to be perfect before sharing a first draft
You're curious about chess, education, or personal brand content
You want to grow with a brand from an early stage
