About Us

Dorsia is an AI-native hospitality-tech company redefining access to the world's most coveted tables, events, and cultural moments. We give our members exclusive access and our operators unmatched control, visibility, and revenue.

We don't just provide access, we create it. Dorsia owns its luxury experiential events end-to-end, from the guest list to production and the technology behind every entrance. Through our enterprise platform, we're building the infrastructure layer for the future of hospitality, powering leading hotels and private member clubs with the same systems that run Dorsia.

We grew 480% in 2025 and today we operate across 400+ venues in 26 cities with revenue engines spanning consumer and enterprise membership, Dorsia Pay, the Culture Calendar, and our enterprise platform.

Backed by $54M from Index Ventures, Invus, Red Sea Ventures, Major Food Group, and MoonPay, we're scaling into our most consequential phase of growth. We're adding exceptional talent to drive what comes next, and that's where you come in.

About the Role

Dorsia is seeking a Video Editor to bring our editing in-house. This is a role for an editor with a real instinct for pacing and hooks, someone who can sit with hours of unscripted footage from a restaurant, an event, or a founder's trip and find the story inside it.

You will cut across the full range of our output, from same-day social clips to polished restaurant short-form and longer-form documentary-style episodes. As we build recurring social franchises like our docu-series, you will help define what they look and feel like. We operate on the hospitality clock, our volume is high, and work goes live quickly. If you want to ship often and own formats, rather than sit inside a long-post pipeline, this role is for you.

What You’ll DoEditing & Storytelling
  • Edit across a wide range of formats, from fast-turn social clips to polished restaurant films and longer-form documentary-style episodes.
  • Cut footage from events, travel, restaurants, office life, founder content, interviews, and behind-the-scenes moments into stories that hold attention.
  • Turn long-form footage, interviews, and documentary material into short, highly watchable clips built for social.
  • Work from large volumes of unscripted footage and shape it into a clear narrative.
  • Bring a sharp instinct for pacing, hooks, music, and selects to every cut.
Story & Craft
  • Find the shot. Anticipate what the edit needs and capture the B-roll, coverage, and moments that let an editor tell the story.
  • Shoot for both vertical and horizontal formats, with an instinct for what holds attention on social.
  • Move fluidly between polished produced work and fast, rough-and-ready capture depending on what the moment calls for.
  • Handle light editing and quick-turn assembly when speed matters more than a full post cycle.
Format Building
  • Help build recurring formats including mini mic series, docu-style YouTube episodes, event coverage, and other social-first franchises.
  • Move between rough-and-ready social content and more polished brand or partner work without losing the Dorsia voice.
  • Create and apply captions, title cards, basic graphics, and simple on-screen treatments.
  • Test ideas, learn from what performs, and bring that back into the next cut.
Speed & Collaboration
  • Deliver on rapid turnarounds, including same-day and next-day edits when the moment calls for it.
  • Take clear creative direction and execute against it quickly.
  • Work closely with our videographer, producers, social, and editorial teams from shoot planning through publish.
  • Stay organized across footage, project files, versioning, and handoffs on multiple concurrent projects.
The Winning Recipe
  • 2-5 years of professional editing experience, ideally in the 2-4 year range.
  • Based in New York, NY or Miami, FL.
  • A portfolio showing range across social-first content, brand work, and longer-form or documentary-style storytelling.
  • Strong working knowledge of Premiere Pro. Familiarity with DaVinci Resolve and audio tools is a plus.
  • Motion design experience is a bonus, not a requirement.
  • Collaborative, low-ego, and comfortable working closely with producers, shooters, social, and editorial.
  • Excited by a high-output environment where we are building new formats, testing ideas, and publishing frequently.
  • Genuine interest in luxury, culture, hospitality, or premium consumer brands.

Workplace Philosophy at Dorsia

At Dorsia, we believe that culture eats strategy. The best ideas in the world mean nothing without the right people around the table and the right chemistry between them. We are, unapologetically, a people-first organization. 

In-Person Matters

We’re creating once-in-a-lifetime experiences for the most discerning audience in the world. That doesn’t happen over Zoom. It happens through collisions: a spark across a desk, a kitchen-side conversation that unlocks a partnership, the energy of ideas felt, not typed. That’s why in-office culture is non-negotiable at Dorsia. 

Who We Hire

We don’t subscribe to check-the-box hiring. We hire for merit and mindset, which naturally creates a team with varied backgrounds. What unites us isn’t demographics, it’s a shared vision: to build the social operating system for the cultural vanguard.

Lifestyle Hours

We’re not a 9-to-5 company. Our lifestyle mirrors our members. Early flights, after-work events, and late-night sprints when the work demands it. But we love what we do, and we definitely love a good party.

High Performance Culture

Working at Dorsia isn’t for everyone—and that’s the point. Our culture is designed for builders, not passengers. We move fast, set ambitious standards, and expect people to rise to them. If you have the talent and the drive, this will be a ride to remember.

A Final Word

We’re building something special. It will take long hours and relentless effort. It’s not for everyone. For those with the metabolism, you’ll create something that changes how culture is lived. And that’s the kind of work worth your life’s energy.
