Pod Fiction is launching a new three-host entertainment podcast built around lively conversations on movies, television, gaming, anime, and the wider world of pop culture. We’re searching for a reliable, long-term editor who can help us deliver episodes that sound polished, clear, and professional from start to finish.

This role is centered on audio quality first. Our production style is intentionally simple, with minimal visual editing and no need for flashy effects, meme inserts, or excessive transitions. In most episodes, your work will focus on cleaning up the conversation, tightening the pacing where needed, and ensuring every voice sounds balanced and easy to follow.

The main challenge will be blending three separate microphone recordings into one smooth, consistent final product. We want each episode to feel natural and conversational, with strong sound quality that supports the discussion rather than distracting from it.

What we’re looking for

We’d love to work with someone who has solid experience editing podcasts or similar dialogue-driven content and understands how to make multi-speaker recordings sound professional. You should be comfortable shaping vocal tone, controlling dynamics, reducing noise, and creating a consistent listening experience across every episode.

The ideal editor will also know how to handle common recording issues such as mic bleed, room echo, and background noise. Experience working with conversational or entertainment podcasts is a strong plus, especially if you’ve edited shows with multiple hosts.

Responsibilities

• Edit and mix three separate voice tracks into a clean, cohesive podcast episode.
• Apply audio cleanup, EQ, compression, noise reduction, and leveling as needed.
• Make light cuts to improve flow, remove mistakes, and tighten the conversation.
• Synchronize audio with multi-camera footage when required.
• Deliver finished episodes that are ready for YouTube publishing.
• Maintain a consistent sound across episodes and communicate clearly about timelines and revisions.

Requirements

• At least 1 year of relevant editing experience.
• Strong background in podcast audio editing, mixing, and mastering.
• Experience working with independently recorded microphone tracks.
• Familiarity with tools such as Adobe Audition, DaVinci Resolve Fairlight, Reaper, or similar software.
• Understanding of dialogue clarity, loudness consistency, and professional podcast delivery standards.
• Ability to handle basic video sync and simple editing tasks.
• Fluent English communication and the ability to meet deadlines reliably.
• Interest in working with a growing project on a long-term basis.

When applying, please include samples of podcast editing work you’ve completed, your rate per episode, and your usual turnaround time. We’re open to arranging a paid trial edit with the right candidate.
