• Edit podcast episodes for clarity, pacing, and flow—including audio mixing, music beds, intros/outros, and graphics.
• Create long‑form and short‑form content for KX News+, repurposing broadcast material for on‑demand viewing.
• Develop vertical video edits and clips optimized for social media and mobile platforms.
• Create visually compelling graphics using Adobe Creative Cloud.
• Monitor quality control on incoming feeds and live shots, fixing errors before air.
• Export content in various formats for broadcast, streaming, You Tube, and podcast platforms, ensuring specifications and closed captioning.
• Contribute with urgency and accuracy in breaking news situations, including live broadcasts and streaming.
• Coordinate sending KX News‑produced video to network and Nexstar sister stations when requested.

• 3–5 years of experience as a non‑linear editor, preferably in a local TV news environment.
• Proficiency with non‑linear edit systems; experience with ENPS and Adobe Creative Cloud a plus.
• Strong audio editing and mixing skills.
• Ability to multi‑task and meet deadlines in a fast‑paced environment.
• Must be able to work flexible hours, including weekends, holidays, and overtime as needed.
