We're seeking an elite video editor who understands direct response mechanics and can produce high-quality ads at scale. Our brand generates $1M+ in monthly revenue through high-volume, high-converting video advertising.
Your work will drive sales across Meta, YouTube, and emerging platforms—with immediate feedback from millions of impressions monthly. You'll transform raw creator footage, UGC clips, and b-roll into persuasive short-form ads (15-90 seconds) and VSLs that convert cold traffic into buyers.
* Craft hooks that stop thumbs in the first 3 seconds: pattern interrupts, bold claims, visual glitches
* Deploy engagement disruptors: kinetic typography, callout graphics, progress bars, emoji reactions
* Optimize pacing for platform algorithms (Meta 9:16, YouTube Shorts)
* A/B test visual approaches based on performance data
You'll use Premiere Pro, After Effects, or DaVinci Resolve to create polished yet authentic edits. Partner with our Creative Strategist to test new concepts weekly, leveraging tools like Descript, Runway, and AI caption generators to maximize output without sacrificing quality.
Requirements:
* Strong level of fluent English fluency
* 2+ years editing for DTC/eCommerce brands (beauty, health, or supplements ideal)
* Portfolio demonstrating direct response ads that drove conversions
* Expert-level proficiency in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve + After Effects
* Deep understanding of Meta/YouTube Shorts specs and algorithm-friendly editing patterns
* Native fluency with UGC aesthetics vs. polished brand content
* Proven ability to produce 8-12 ads per week without compromising quality
* Ability to think critically and recommend new approaches, ad formats, and tools
