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.
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.
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.

Frustrated? It's not you, it's Rust
38 min
Learning Rust is… an experience. An emotional journey. I’ve rarely been more frustrated than in my first few months of trying to learn Rust.
What makes it worse is that it doesn’t matter how much prior experience you have, in Java, C#, C or C++ or otherwise - it’ll still be unnerving.
In fact, more experience probably makes it worse! The habits have settled in deeper, and there’s a certain expectation that, by now, you should be able to get that done in a shorter amount of time.
