Music Editor

We are looking for Music Editor candidates for a project delivered through the hiring partner.

What you'll do

  • Watch video clips and annotate them following a detailed set of guidelines.
  • Tag actions and events in each clip, marking the exact point where each one starts and ends.
  • Identify scene changes, cuts, and shifts in the pacing or intensity of the action.
  • Label the tone or mood of each section and mark where it changes.
  • Apply the labeling rules the same way across every clip so the data stays consistent.
  • Re-check your own work and correct boundaries that are slightly off.
  • Flag unclear or borderline cases to project leads instead of guessing, and help resolve them.
  • Suggest improvements to the annotation guidelines when you find gaps or repeated confusion.
  • Complete assigned annotation volume on time and at the required quality level.

What you need

  • Attention to timing and detail is what matters.

Nice to have

  • Background in post-production or editorial work — music editing, video editing, sound editing, or similar.
  • Strong sense of timing: able to judge where a moment truly begins and ends, not just approximately.
  • Sharp eye for detail and the patience to stay consistent across long sessions of similar material.
  • Comfortable following written guidelines precisely and applying them the same way every time.
  • Able to spot when something in the footage does not fit the rules, and raise it instead of forcing a label.
  • Clear written and verbal communication for working with a remote team.
  • Previous video annotation or data labeling experience is a plus, but not required.
