Video Editor — Snowball

Full-Time | $80,000–$100,000/year | US Remote

We're building the best YouTube agency in the world.

We've assembled a crazy-talented group of YouTube strategists who've collectively generated over 110 billion views and shaped how YouTube works today. Our founder, Ryan Hashemi, built Jubilee to 14 million subscribers, has 4 Emmy nominations, and even trained the person who now is the CEO of MrBeast's studio. Our team comes from iconic names like WIRED, Vogue, Mini Katana (18M+ subs), and other influential YouTube brands.

(Learn more about Ryan’s journey here: https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7262864813221888000/ )

Now we're helping the world's biggest brands crack the code on YouTube and make content that people actually want to watch at scale.

We lead YouTube creative and content programming as a strategic channel. We staff and train in-house YouTube teams for clients, hiring video producers, editors, and strategists, and build long-form storytelling systems designed to compound over time. The result: evergreen content that earns millions of views, builds loyal audiences, and drives conversions.

After stepping down from Jubilee, Ryan is betting everything on Snowball, and that bet is already paying off.
