Video Editor & Motion Designer — Social, UGC & Product Storytelling

Commitment: 30-40 hours/week to start (with opportunity to grow come on full time) Type: Contract with strong potential to convert to full-time Location: Fully remote About Mudflap Mudflap is changing the way truckers fuel across the country, and we're building a content engine that's just as bold as the people we serve. We're investing heavily in social content—from creator partnerships and authentic UGC to product education and brand storytelling. Our goal isn't to make polished corporate videos. We want content that feels real, entertaining, useful, and worth sharing. We're a small, collaborative marketing team that loves experimenting, moving quickly, and trying new ideas. If you've ever wanted to help define what a brand looks and feels like in motion—not just execute someone else's vision—this is that opportunity. The Opportunity We're looking for a talented Video Editor & Motion Designer who loves both fast-paced social editing and bringing products to life through animation. We are starting as a trial contract with hopes to turn it into full time. One day you might be turning raw creator footage into a TikTok that racks up views. The next, you'll be animating a new product feature, creating an onboarding tutorial, or helping establish the motion language that customers will associate with Mudflap. You'll have real creative ownership, work directly with our content and design teams, and help shape how one of the fastest-growing brands in trucking tells its story. What You'll Do - Edit approximately 5 short-form videos each week for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and other social platforms. - Transform raw creator footage into engaging, scroll-stopping content with strong pacing, captions, sound design, and trend-aware editing. - Create product explainers, feature launches, onboarding videos, tutorials, and educational content. - Animate Figma designs, UI mockups, brand assets, icons, and illustrations using your preferred motion design tools (After Effects, Figma, Rive, Lottie, or similar). - Help establish how the Mudflap brand comes to life through motion—from transitions and UI animation to storytelling and visual style. - Collaborate closely with marketing, product marketing, and design to brainstorm ideas, iterate quickly, and continuously improve what's working. - Contribute creative ideas—we're looking for someone who wants to make the work better, not just check boxes. What We're Looking For 2+ years of experience editing social-first, short-form video. Experience creating motion graphics, product explainers, tutorials, or animated marketing content. A portfolio that demonstrates both engaging social edits and thoughtful motion design. Excellent instincts for pacing, storytelling, hooks, captions, and visual communication. Comfortable working with both authentic UGC footage and polished product assets. Someone who thrives in a collaborative environment, welcomes feedback, and enjoys moving fast. Reliable, organized, and excited by a steady stream of creative work. Bonus Points Experience with SaaS or product marketing. Familiarity with trucking, logistics, or blue-collar audiences. Illustration, character animation, or branding experience. Curiosity about AI-assisted creative workflows and new editing tools. Why You'll Love Working With Us Help define the motion identity of a growing brand—not just execute existing templates. Join a fun, collaborative team that values creativity, experimentation, and great ideas over hierarchy. Work on a wide variety of content, from viral social videos to polished product storytelling. Flexible, fully remote work with consistent weekly projects. Strong opportunity for this contract role to grow into a full-time position as our creative team expands.
