  • Stay on the pulse of social trends, editing styles, platform updates and emerging creator behaviors, proactively bringing new execution ideas to the team.
  • Optimize content for maximum engagement through strong hooks, pacing, storytelling, captions, sound selection and platform best practices.
  • Support content production for major campaigns, retail launches, events, creator collaborations and gameplay captures as needed.
  • Collaborate with agency partners, internal creative team and social team to maintain a consistent, premium brand look and feel while keeping content fresh and culturally relevant.
  • Work independently with minimal oversight, managing multiple fast-paced projects and delivering high-quality creative on tight timelines.
  • Continuously identify opportunities to elevate Nex's social presence through innovative content formats and best-in-class execution.
Required Qualifications
  • 3–5+ years of experience creating and editing social-first video content, ideally for a consumer, gaming, or entertainment brand.
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating high-performing, organic short-form video across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
  • Proven ability to film and edit quick-turn, trend-responsive content independently.
  • Proficiency in video editing tools such as Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut.
  • Deep understanding of social platform trends, editing styles, and engagement mechanics.
  • Ability to manage multiple fast-paced projects and deliver on tight deadlines with minimal oversight.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in gaming, family, or consumer tech brands.
  • Experience covering live events, retail launches, or creator collaborations.
  • Experience working alongside agency partners and internal creative teams.
  • Familiarity with gameplay capture and behind-the-scenes content formats.
What Sets You Apart
  • Ability to balance speed with premium creative quality.
  • Self-starter mentality, comfortable operating with minimal oversight.
  • Excited about building a new category around active, family-first play.
