Video Editor for Technical Educational Content (Remote)

Company: bearcove SARL
Position: Video Editor/Producer for fasterthanlime
Location: Remote (Europe-based preferred)

About us

bearcove is a France-based LLC that produces educational programming content for fasterthanlime.

Some of it is long-form articles and some of it is in-depth technical videos about programming, software development in general, and (computer, but not always) science.

Amos

Work in progress includes a larger range of topics, such as sound, color, etc. — not just “the Rust programming language”, although that’s a common topic.

fasterthanlime content combines technical knowledge with fast-paced visual presentation and requires meticulous attention to detail. See this video for example:

Videos always include:

  • A segment explaining the fasterthanlime business model (video now, article in 6 months, except for subscribers)
  • A sponsored segment, which helps funds video production

The Role

We’re seeking a video editor to help produce high-quality educational content.

This is a paid professional role, not a side project or casual collaboration.

You’ll be working closely with Amos to learn and execute a specific workflow and style.

Key Requirements

  • Location: 🇪🇺 Europe-based preferred (for time zone compatibility)
  • Equipment: 🖥️ Access to a Mac (M2 or thereabouts with at least 16GB RAM)
  • Internet: 🔌 Reliable high-speed fiber connection for good quality video calls
  • Language: 🇬🇧 Good (doesn’t have to be native) English communication skills
  • Availability: 📞 Comfortable with regular video calls for coordination, training and feedback
  • Mindset: 💪 Treat this as professional work with clear boundaries

Technical Requirements

  • Willingness to learn and strictly follow an established DaVinci Resolve workflow
  • Ability to understand the technical content as we go through it together.
Amos

You don’t have to understand everything at once, I can explain stuff but there should be some affinity with science and computers.

  • Comfortable with motion graphics, titles, code highlighting, and technical editing
  • Attention to detail and timing

Explicity Not Required, but also not forbidden

  • Prior knowledge of DaVinci Resolve (we’ll provide training)
  • Programming expertise (understanding basics is helpful, but this is not a programming role)
  • Previous experience in educational content (though media/art background is a plus)

What to Expect

  • The role focuses exclusively on production and post-production, not research or writing
  • Training period with potentially lower compensation as you learn our workflow
  • Professional relationship with clear expectations and regular payment for work delivered
  • Opportunity to develop specialized skills in technical content production

Compensation will be discussed during the interview — the scheme will most likely based on output (minutes edited) + video performance bonuses, rather than an hourly or monthly rate.

How to Apply

Please send your resume, a brief introduction, and examples of relevant work (if any) to hi@bearcove.eu.

Include “Video Editor Application” in the subject line.

Here's another article just for you:

Why is my Rust build so slow?

I’ve recently come back to an older project of mine (that powers this website), and as I did some maintenance work: upgrade to newer crates, upgrade to a newer rustc, I noticed that my build was taking too damn long!

For me, this is a big issue. Because I juggle a lot of things at any given time, and I have less and less time to just hyperfocus on an issue, I try to make my setup as productive as possible.
