Content Clipper – Live Sports & Social

Catch the Moment Before Everyone Else Does.

A monster card gets pulled.

A Breaker loses their mind.

Someone makes a ridiculous prediction.

The chat explodes.

Ten minutes later, the stream has already moved on.

Your job is to make sure the internet doesn’t miss it.

Backyard Breaks is looking for a Content Clipper to watch our live broadcasts, identify the moments worth sharing, and turn them into clean, organized, upload-ready content for our social channels. You’ll live inside the action; watching our streams, spotting huge pulls, hilarious reactions, sports debates, unexpected moments, personality-driven content, and anything else that deserves a second life beyond the live show.

Then you’ll clip it, timestamp it, package it, and get it into the hands of our content team while the moment is still hot.

If you already watch streams thinking, “THAT should be a clip,” we should probably talk.

What You’ll Do

• Watch Backyard Breaks live streams with a content-first mindset
• Identify the best moments happening across our broadcasts in real time
• Capture and create clips from live and recorded stream footage
• Accurately timestamp standout moments so they can be found quickly
• Prepare clips for distribution across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and other content channels
• Organize clips so the content team knows exactly what happened, when it happened, and why it matters
• Flag major pulls, huge reactions, funny exchanges, sports takes, debates, celebrations, fails, and unexpected moments
• Make clean cuts that get to the point without killing the payoff
• Add basic edits or formatting when needed to make content upload-ready
• Keep pace with multiple streams and a constantly moving content environment
• Communicate quickly when something happens that needs to get posted now
• Build a reliable library of moments that can be used for immediate posts, compilations, recaps, and future content

You’ll Crush This Role If You…

• Know a moment when you see one. Nobody has to tell you that the room just went crazy or somebody said something worth clipping.
• Have an internet brain. You understand memes, reactions, sports culture, viral moments, and why people send certain clips to their friends.
• Pay attention. You can watch a stream without mentally checking out and catch the five seconds everyone else missed.
• Move fast without getting sloppy. Speed matters, but so do accurate timestamps, clean clips, and organized handoffs.
• Understand the payoff. You know when to start a clip, when to let the moment breathe, and where it should end.
• Can stay organized while content is flying at you. One great moment is fun. Twenty happening across a day requires a system.
• Don’t need constant direction. You can make good calls about what deserves to become content.
• Actually enjoy watching this stuff. If hours of sports, cards, personalities, live reactions, and internet culture sound exhausting, this probably isn’t the role for you.

Sports Knowledge Matters

Backyard lives at the intersection of sports, collectibles, internet culture, and live entertainment.

To recognize great content, you need to understand what you’re watching.

You should be able to recognize when:

• A player or card is a big deal
• A pull is genuinely huge
• A sports take is going to start an argument
• A reaction is worth saving
• A storyline connects to something happening in sports right now
• The chat is reacting because something important just happened

You don’t need to know every card ever printed, but you should genuinely follow sports and be interested enough in the hobby to learn quickly.

Your Toolkit

You should be comfortable working with video and digital content tools used to capture, trim, organize, and prepare clips.

Experience with tools such as the following is helpful:

• CapCut
• Adobe Premiere Pro
• Final Cut Pro
• Stream clipping or screen capture tools
• Google Drive / shared content libraries
• Google Sheets or similar tracking systems

You do not need to be a cinematic filmmaker.

We care much more about whether you can find the right moment, make the right cut, and get it where it needs to go quickly.

The Real Skill: Knowing What Matters

Anyone can cut thirty seconds out of a video.

That isn’t what we’re hiring for.

We want someone who understands the difference between something that happened and something people will actually want to watch.

Maybe it’s the card.

Maybe it’s the reaction.

Maybe it’s what someone says five seconds before the card gets flipped.

Maybe nothing huge happens at all — but the conversation is hilarious.

Your job is to recognize the story inside the stream.

This Probably Isn’t for You If…

• You need someone to tell you exactly what moments to clip
• You tend to watch content passively
• You don’t follow sports or internet culture
• You struggle with repetitive focus over longer periods
• Fast-moving environments make it difficult for you to stay organized
• You think the biggest card is automatically the best content
• You’d rather spend three hours perfecting one edit than get ten strong moments ready while they’re still relevant

Who We Are

Backyard Breaks is the #1 live streaming sports entertainment company built around breaking culture .

Every day, our personalities broadcast live to fans around the world; opening cards, talking sports, chasing massive hits, arguing takes, celebrating pulls, and creating moments nobody could have scripted beforehand.

And because we’re live, some of our best content exists for only a few seconds before the show keeps moving.

That’s where you come in.

You help turn the best moments from hours of live programming into the clips, highlights, reactions, and stories that keep Backyard moving across social media long after the stream ends.

Show Us How You Think

A traditional resume is great.

But for this job, we also want to know whether you have the eye.

When you apply, be ready to show us:

• Any video, clipping, editing, social, or creator work you’ve done
• The platforms and editing tools you know
• The sports and creators you actually follow
• Examples of content you think works — and why
• How you decide whether a moment deserves to become a clip

Ready to Find the Moment?

We already have the cameras rolling.

We already have the personalities.

We already have hours of live content happening every day.

We need the person who knows which 30 seconds everyone needs to see.

If you can find it, clip it, timestamp it, and get it ready to move before the moment goes cold — come join the Yard.
