Video Editor, Robotaxi

What to Expect

We are seeking a talented and experienced Video Editor to join our Robotaxi Content team based in Austin, TX. This person will be responsible for taking video projects from post-production to final delivery, ensuring videos are completed on time while maintaining Tesla’s video standards and upholding the Tesla brand. 

This role is post-production-focused. Content will include public-facing Robotaxi videos — product, factory, and industry updates; customer engagement; and creative content that highlights milestones, product launches, the customer journey, and public engagement. 

What You’ll Do

• Develop edit concepts that serve business needs and communicate the vision to stakeholders and collaborators 
• Collaborate closely with creatives to shape stories and define pacing, tone, and structure 
• Lead the post-production workflow from ingest to final delivery, including versioning, color, sound, motion graphics, and basic VFX 
• Maintain consistency across projects by applying Tesla’s visual identity and editorial standards 
• Coordinate interdepartmentally within Tesla to align on edit feedback, revisions, and approvals 
• Troubleshoot technical challenges and ensure delivery specs are met across formats and platforms 
• Organize and archive digital assets locally and via shared content platforms (Frame.io) 

What You’ll Bring

• 5+ years of video editing at an agency, production company, or in-house creative department, with proven experience from post-production to final delivery 
• A strong reel demonstrating storytelling, pacing, visual continuity, and finish across short-form and long-form work; branded, documentary, or automotive content a plus 
• Highly creative, organized, and detailed; able to carry multiple projects in parallel and turn challenges into opportunities 
• Editing in Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve 
• After Effects or DaVinci Resolve for titling, motion graphics, and basic VFX 
• Solid understanding of color grading, sound design, and post workflows for short-form and long-form content 
• Experience with asset management systems, proxy workflows, and cloud-based review tools (e.g., Frame.io)
