Job Description

About Us

We’re Juan and Alexis Villegas, founders of Bogar Tech Designs — a fast-growing eCommerce brand specializing in precut vinyl wraps, PPF, tint kits, decals, and custom automotive films. With a tight-knit, hardworking team, we’ve built a business grounded in innovation, craftsmanship, and a positive, supportive culture. Alongside our product work, we’re also building a powerful media presence through our YouTube channel, where we share the real, unfiltered journey of entrepreneurship — with an emphasis on grit, growth, and representation. We’re proud to spotlight Mexican-American entrepreneurs in spaces where we’re often underrepresented, telling stories that range from educational tutorials to cinematic narratives — all rooted in authenticity, hustle, and heart.

About the Role

We’re looking for a senior-level video editor who knows YouTube inside and out. You should deeply understand how to:

  • Tell compelling, structured stories
  • Design attention-grabbing hooks
  • Edit with precision, energy, and emotion

If you know how to move from cinematic and subtle to graphics-heavy and high-impact — without losing narrative clarity — this role is for you.

What You’ll Be Editing

  • Long-form vlogs & behind-the-scenes business breakdowns
  • Cinematic mini-documentaries with emotional arcs
  • Graphics-rich tutorials and explainers
  • Raw warehouse edits & BTS content
  • High-energy short-form content for YouTube and social media

Each edit should balance story, retention, and visual punch — from pacing and transitions to rotoscoping, sound design, and motion graphics.

What We're Looking For

Required Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years of professional video editing experience (or an exceptional portfolio that matches this level)
  • 3–5 years of After Effects experience (motion graphics, rotoscoping, animation integration with Premiere)
  • Proven experience editing for YouTube creators or brands (public links required)
  • Deep understanding of YouTube viewer retention, pacing, and algorithm behavior.
  • Mastery of Adobe Premiere Pro (multicam, nested sequences, proxies, dynamic linking)
  • Full fluency in Adobe Suite: AE, Media Encoder, Photoshop, Illustrator

Technical Proficiency

  • Color correction & grading (LUTs, scopes, Lumetri)
  • Sound design and audio mixing (EQ, ducking, levels, SFX)
  • Clean project organization and export-ready delivery
  • Efficient, self-directed workflow — with fast turnaround

Ideal Candidate Traits

  • You're a storyteller at heart
  • You think in hooks and structure
  • You edit fast, without sacrificing quality
  • You can work independently and make strong creative decisions
  • You understand YouTube culture and trends
  • You care about the details: audio fades, pacing, tone, rhythm, texture

Strategic Expectations

We’re building a brand, not just a channel. We expect you to:

  • Analyze YouTube trends and competitor videos
  • Align edits with titles, thumbnails, and brand tone
  • Understand why some content outperforms others — and build with intention
  • Offer creative ideas — not just execution

To Apply

Please submit:

  • 3+ public YouTube video links you’ve personally edited
  • A brief breakdown of your editing contributions
  • (Optional) A downloadable Premiere Pro project file (to show organization)
  • (Optional) Before/after clips for color or sound design
