About us
Aave Labs began with a simple question: how do we make financial services like borrowing, saving, and earning more accessible globally?
We built the Aave Protocol, now the world’s largest and most trusted onchain lending market, connecting decentralized finance with individuals, traditional finance, and fintech.
Today, we build trusted, high-quality products that expand access to lending, credit, and savings globally
Our culture
We build trusted products that help people access and discover economic opportunities.
We hold a high bar for quality and craftsmanship. No detail is too small. Trust depends on it.
We’re a global team building products people can actually use, turning complex technology into something simple and reliable.
We stay aligned, move quickly, and think long term, while keeping teams lean and focused on impact.
About the Role
Aave Labs is looking for a highly creative Video Editor who lives and breathes social media.
You’ll create video content across Aave’s social and digital channels, working closely with the Marketing team to bring our products, ecosystem and brand to life. From short-form social and product launches to events, interviews and longer-form storytelling, you’ll help shape how Aave shows up online.
We’re looking for someone who understands what makes people stop scrolling. You have strong creative instincts, a sharp sense of internet culture, and an intuitive understanding of hooks, pacing, sound, storytelling and platform-native content. This is a hands-on role. You should be as comfortable turning around a fast, culturally relevant social edit as you are crafting a polished brand or product piece. You’re constantly experimenting with new formats, editing techniques and tools — including AI — to work smarter, remove unnecessary production bloat and spend more time on the creative.
How you can make an impact:
-
Create and present social-first video, appearing regularly on camera
-
Develop fresh ideas and repeatable formats that build an engaged audience
-
Stay close to trends, memes, emerging creators, and platform behaviours, identifying what makes sense for Aave Labs
-
Write strong hooks, scripts, and captions, adapting your approach to each platform
-
Film content and put together basic edits, collaborating with our video team to refine and enhance pieces where needed
-
Host interviews and capture spontaneous conversations with team members, partners, street interviews and people at events
-
Turn product updates and complex topics into accessible, entertaining stories, working with internal experts to get the details right
-
Move quickly on timely opportunities while maintaining quality and accuracy
-
Use audience feedback and performance data to improve content and test new approaches
Let's connect if you have:
-
A confident, natural on-camera presence and a strong sense of humour and personality
-
A portfolio of social content you’ve created, including examples where you appear on camera
-
A deep understanding of social platforms, short-form video, and what earns attention
-
A strong instinct for trends, and the judgement to know which ones fit the brand
-
Hands-on filming and editing skills is a plus, with the ability to produce polished content using a lightweight setup
-
Strong writing and interviewing skills, including the confidence to approach new people and put them at ease
-
The initiative to pitch ideas and the organisation to follow them through
-
A collaborative approach and the ability to respond well to feedback
Nice to haves:
-
An interest in finance, fintech, crypto, or how technology is changing money
-
Experience growing a personal or brand social account
-
Experience creating street interviews, product explainers, or event content
-
Video editing skills, with an eye for pacing, captions, and social-first storytelling
