About The Unfiltered Startup (www.theunfilteredstartup.com)
We're building a next-gen media company around business, finance, money, startups, geopolitics, and power.
Think of it as India's business storytelling engine backed by an IIT Delhiled team obsessed with speed, accuracy, and narrative depth.
We're not looking for employees.
We're building a founding content team where every member has skin in the game.
If you want safety, security, and predictable monthly pay this isn't for you.
If you want upside, ownership, and long-term wealth, keep reading.
What You'll Build (Not Just Edit)
Your job is to co-create premium, long-form business documentaries (3035 mins) designed to scale to millions of views.
You'll:
- Craft high-retention, research-backed, story-driven edits
- Build visual narratives using b-roll, infographics, motion graphics, memes, archival footage
- Maintain a strong editing identity unique to TUS
- Participate in script breakdowns & visual planning
- Guide creative direction with the founder
- Optimize each video for watch time, pacing, and emotional flow
- Bring your own creative judgment into the storytelling process
- Handle tight turnarounds without excuses
We treat content like products, not videos.
Who This Role Is For
This is for someone who wants to grow with a brand, not hop between freelance gigs.
Perfect for:
- Editors tired of being underpaid by agencies
- Creators who want a long-term stake in a fast-scaling channel
- Ambitious problem-solvers who actually understand YouTube
- Editors who think like founders, not contractors
- People who want equity and profit, not just a paycheck
If you're average, lazy, template-dependent, or need constant supervision: don't apply.
Skills You Must Have (Non-negotiable)

- Solid motion graphics capability (AE basics minimum)
- Strong grasp of storytelling, pacing, rhythm, emotional beats
- Understanding of YouTube retention psychology
- Ability to cut dense, complex business narratives clearly
- Serious attention to detail
- Clean audio design, sound transitions, timing
- Fast turnaround capability
- Ability to edit Hindi + English hybrid content
You earn from:

- Performance incentives based on retention & subscriber growth
- Equity vesting after consistent contribution (612 months)
This makes you a partner, not an editor-for-hire.
Your income grows as the channel grows.
If we scale to millions of views (which is the plan), your upside becomes massive.
This structure ensures:
- No politics
- No freelancing mindset
- Only hungry builders stay
- Everyone benefits from growth
