Founders Note:
I'm an e-commerce founder from New York, and over the last year, I've scaled my portfolio of brands to multi-7 figures. Now I'm hunting for 1–2 killer video ad editors to join my team.
Your mission? Work closely with me to build the ad engine that scales to multiple 8 figures in 2026.
I have direct mentorship access to 8 & 9 figure founders, so I’m actively implementing their playbooks and want to transfer that leverage to you.
If you have the DESIRE to grow — personally and professionally — keep reading.
🛑 Important! As much as I love growth and development, if you have no direct experience editing ads for Shopify or DTC e-commerce brands… this role isn't the right fit right now.
But if you do… 👇
🛡️ Why This Seat Exists
I'm approaching my personal creative output ceiling. To keep scaling and increasing volume, I need 1–2 editors I can hand the wheel to.
Here's what makes this different from other editor roles:
This is a high-growth, high-autonomy environment — we iterate fast, test constantly, and analyze. You won't be executing in a vacuum or waiting weeks for feedback. You'll know quickly what's working, why, and what we're doing next.
If you grow the way we expect A-players to grow, this isn't just an editing role long-term. As the organization scales, strong performers have a clear path to roles like becoming Creative Strategists or even Directors.
🔎 Who We're Looking For
As a Video Editor on my team, you have:
Direct experience editing video ads for Shopify brands — tell us who you've worked with
* A developing understanding of what makes paid ads actually perform – not just look good
* Experience with AI tools (ElevenLabs, Higgsfield, Veo3, etc.)
* Strong, fluent English — you'll be reviewing scripts, writing basic copy within edits
* A portfolio you're proud of — we want to see your best DTC ad work
As a person, you are:
* Self-managing with an owner mentality
* Obsessed with improvement
* Positive and hungry
* Extremely detail oriented
* Operating with urgency
📝 What Your Week Actually Looks Like
* I'll send you detailed creative briefs — format, reference examples, script, and key video ideas
* You'll edit 10–20 ads per week across different formats: UGC, Pure AI, AI+UGC hybrid, Mini VSLs, promotional
* Turnarounds are quick — typically 1–3 days per asset (the editing itself is rarely complicated; simple, native-feeling ads outperform over-produced ones)
* Expect a round or two of revisions to dial in the result at the start
* You'll be working with tools like ElevenLabs for AI voiceovers and frontier video generation tools for AI-generated content — full training and resources provided on both
* As you learn the standards and the brand's DNA, your autonomy and output will grow
💰 Compensation
* Flat monthly rate — based on experience and output
* Performance bonus — cash bonus when you edit an ad that wins (profitable spend at scale)
* Profit bonus pool — when the portfolio hits monthly revenue targets, the team shares in it
📓 How the Hiring Process Works
* Portfolio + Loom Video — Show us your best DTC ad work and introduce yourself in 2 minutes or less. Tell us who you've worked with and what you've edited.
* Culture & Values Call — A quick conversation to make sure we're aligned on how we work.
* Paid Technical Assessment — A real brief, a real deliverable. You get paid. We see how you actually work.
* Final Interview — We talk vision, expectations, and lock in the offer.
* Offer + 30-Day Trial — Fast process, clear expectations, and we get to work.
