We are hiring Senior Editors to support the growth and quality of an original digital storytelling slate for a fast-growing digital media and entertainment organization. This role is ideal for an experienced editor who can elevate storytelling quality, guide creators, and help expand a content library with a strong focus on action, thriller, and horror genres.

As a Senior Editor, you will own and develop a portfolio of original digital series, partnering closely with creators to strengthen narrative quality, pacing, and audience engagement. You will also play a key leadership role by mentoring junior editors and helping establish editorial best practices across the team.

This role blends creative leadership, creator collaboration, and data-informed decision-making in a highly collaborative, creator-first environment.

• Oversee a slate of original digital series from pitch through launch and ongoing production.
• Provide high-impact editorial feedback focused on:
  • Strong early engagement and momentum.
  • Chapter-level hooks, cliffhangers, and pacing.
  • Long‑term story structure, character arcs, and audience retention.
  • Apply genre expertise (especially action, thriller, and horror) to guide tone, tension, and narrative payoff.
  • Identify creative risks early and propose actionable solutions to improve performance and longevity.
  • Contribute to scalable editorial frameworks and storytelling best practices informed by audience insights.
• Partner closely with creators to deliver clear, actionable, and relationship‑driven feedback.
• Support creators in building sustainable production workflows, including pacing, planning, and buffer management.
• Maintain a balance between creative autonomy and editorial guidance.
• Review and evaluate pitches with a strong eye for commercial and creative potential.
• Proactively source and develop stories within priority genres, including action, thriller, and horror.
• Collaborate cross‑functionally to identify genre gaps, emerging trends, and breakout opportunities.

• Work with internal partners across strategy, marketing, and operations to support launches and growth initiatives.
• Align editorial decisions with broader platform and audience goals.
• Mentor and support junior and mid‑level editors, helping raise editorial quality and consistency.
• Contribute to process improvements, documentation, and internal knowledge‑sharing.
• Participate in team discussions around slate planning and quality standards.

• 5+ years of editorial experience in digital storytelling, webcomics, comics, graphic narratives, or similar formats.
• Demonstrated editorial experience in action, thriller, and/or horror genres.
• Strong understanding of serialized, mobile‑first storytelling and audience engagement.
• Proven ability to deliver thoughtful, actionable editorial feedback to creators.
• Excellent communication, organization, and project management skills.
• Ability to incorporate performance data and audience insights into editorial strategy.
• Passion for digital storytelling and genre‑driven narratives.

• Experience supporting high‑performing or breakout digital series.
• Familiarity with creator production workflows and content pipelines.
• Experience working in fast‑paced, cross‑functional environments.
• Understanding of digital content monetization models is a plus.
• Multilingual abilities are a plus but not required.
• Hybrid role with 3 days onsite in Los Angeles.
• Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S. (no sponsorship).
• Relocation assistance may be available.
• Interview process includes 2–3 rounds, one being an onsite interview.
