Description
Experience Level: Expert
We are looking for a Shorts Strategist (full time) who understands virality, psychology, and attention and can watch my YouTube videos and long form content, and identify which parts can go viral. This is NOT a video editing job.
I can train you for this role, because this is what I am currently doing but if so, I need you to be ready to learn.
As a Shorts Strategist Your job is to view existing content, determines what may go viral, and secondly, research what currently is going viral in the social skills education niche.

Identify and extract 30–60 short clips (30–60 seconds) with strong viral potential
Focus on:
Pattern interrupts
Bold statements
Emotional spikes
Controversial takes
Clear, actionable advice
Deliver clips formatted and structured for YouTube Shorts (and repurposable to Reels/TikTok)
2 Trend Research & Replication Strategy
Research what is currently going viral in:
Social skills
Dating psychology
Masculinity
Communication skills
Consolidate up to 60 replicable video ideas per month (approx. 2/day)

Why people stop scrolling
Why they comment
Why they argue
Why they share
Trial Task

For this role, what metric defines success for you — raw views, retention rate, comments per view, subscriber conversion, or qualified audience growth? I want to align the Shorts strategy with the outcome that matters most to your brand.
This does three powerful things:
• Shows you think in metrics, not just clips
• Positions you as strategic, not operational
• Signals long-term thinking
If you want a slightly more advanced version:
Do you already have a defined viral framework or retention benchmark that your current Shorts follow, or would you like me to reverse engineer and propose a structured model based on your niche performance data?
