ABOUT UNRIVALED
Unrivaled is a premier professional women’s 3v3 basketball league showcasing the top players in the sport. Our mission is to elevate the profile of women’s basketball through exceptional talent, groundbreaking partnerships, and unparalleled fan experiences.
JOB OVERVIEW
Unrivaled is seeking an experienced Video Editor with a strong VFX and AfterEffects skillset to elevate our social content during the 2026–2027 Unrivaled season. The engagement is expected to begin on December 26, 2026 and continue through approximately mid-March 2027, subject to completion of the agreed scope of services. The services are expected to be performed remotely, except as otherwise agreed by the parties.
You'll be our go-to for building out motion graphics, adding visual effects, and creating animation templates to turn our highlights, campaigns, and partner content into more dynamic and visually driven pieces — while staying tightly aligned with our internal brand system and partner/sponsor guidelines.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Design and execute visual effects, motion graphics, and animated elements for short-form and long-form social content (game highlights, hype content, partner & campaign assets, sponsor integrations)
- Build and maintain reusable AE templates, title cards, lower thirds, and effect packages that allow the broader content team to edit quickly without sacrificing quality
- Partner with the social, brand, and partnerships teams to ensure every asset reflects current brand guidelines and any partner/sponsor-specific requirements (logo placement, color, messaging restrictions, usage rights)
- Elevate raw footage with color correction, compositing, and effects work that matches Unrivaled's visual identity across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and other platforms
- Collaborate with Content Producers and the Social team to conceptualize effects-driven content from pre-production to post-production
- Manage multiple projects and quick-turn requests in a fast-paced, real-time sports content environment
- Maintain organization of all created assets, project files and version control within our asset and archive systems
QUALIFICATIONS
- 3+ years of video editing experience with a portfolio that demonstrates strong VFX/motion graphics work, beyond storytelling & narrative editing
- Advanced proficiency in Adobe After Effects (required); proficiency across multiple video editing software is highly valued ie. (Premiere Pro, Davinci, Final Cut Pro)
- Experience building a reusable motion graphic templates & effects system that scale across a content calendar, not just one-off pieces
- An eye for brand consistency — you can take guidelines and translate them into visually engaging work rather than treating them as a constraint
- Strong communication is a must given the remote nature of this role, must be able to respond in a timely matter consistently
- Must be knowledgeable of different file types with the ability to convert files types as needed
- Bonus: experience in sports, live events, or fast-moving social-first content environments
Unrivaled is an equal opportunity organization. All qualified individuals will receive consideration without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, ancestry, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other basis protected under applicable federal, state or local law.

Prepare your application
Use the description above to assess your fit for Unrivaled, LLC. This checklist is guidance from Resumize, rather than additional requirements from the employer. Imported listings can be shortened or change after collection, so confirm the complete description and current availability before sending an application.
Match requirements to evidence
Identify the responsibilities and skills the employer explicitly names. For each important requirement, choose one example from your work, education, training, or projects. Explain what you did, how you did it, and what changed as a result. Include a measurable outcome when you can support it. If you lack a requirement, describe related experience accurately instead of adding an unfamiliar skill to your resume.
Put the most relevant examples near the top of your resume. Keep job titles, dates, qualifications, and contact details consistent across your application materials. Use the employer’s terminology when it describes your experience accurately; a copied list of keywords does not explain your contribution. A short, specific bullet is easier to review than a paragraph that mixes several unrelated duties.
Check the working arrangement
Confirm the location, schedule, employment type, and any eligibility requirements on the employer’s site. A remote label does not establish worldwide eligibility or flexible hours. If compensation, benefits, equipment, travel, or contract duration are missing from this listing, write down your questions for the recruiter. Do not assume details from another opening at the same company apply to this role.
Review before submitting
Follow the employer’s requested file format and application instructions. Open your exported resume and check that its text is selectable, its sections read in order, and its links work. Proofread names, dates, and contact information. Share confidential work samples only when you have permission, and use an anonymized example when necessary.
Submit through a trusted employer or recruiting destination. If the original listing has disappeared, search the employer’s careers page for the title rather than assuming the vacancy remains open. Save the application date, job reference, and the version of your resume you sent. Those details help you prepare for a later conversation and avoid submitting conflicting information through several job boards.
Review your resume for writing and readability feedback, or browse other openings if this opportunity is unavailable.
