Job Title: Video Editor

Type: Full-time; Remote

Schedule: US Time zone

Role Overview:

This role exists to drive growth.

As Video Editor, your primary responsibility is turning raw footage, UGC, product clips, and concepts into high-performing ad creative across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and other paid channels. Your work will be judged by one thing first: does it stop the scroll and hold attention.

You will be deeply embedded in paid media and growth. This is not a passive editing role. We expect you to understand consumer psychology, storytelling, pacing, hooks, and retention curves, and to continuously improve creative based on performance feedback.

If you love experimenting, iterating fast, and pushing creative boundaries in pursuit of results, you’ll thrive here.

Responsibilities & Role Ownership

Performance Ad Editing

Edit short-form and mid-form video ads optimized for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and other performance channels
Slice and repurpose long-form and UGC content into multiple high-impact ad variations
Continuously test different hooks, openers, pacing, captions, and CTAs
Optimize edits specifically for watch time, engagement, and conversion

Creative Strategy & Storytelling

Apply strong storytelling frameworks within short time constraints
Build clear narratives that hook early, maintain attention, and drive action
Understand what makes effective thumb-stoppers and retention-driven ads
Collaborate with growth and creative teams to translate concepts into executable ads

Iteration & Optimization

Iterate quickly based on performance data and feedback
Identify patterns in winning ads and systemize what works
Kill underperforming creative fast and replace it with improved variations
Maintain a high-volume creative output without sacrificing quality

Brand & Product Content

Support occasional brand or product-focused videos when needed
Ensure all content feels consistent with brand standards while still being performance-driven
Balance creativity with clarity and compliance where required

Requirements & Expectations

This role is for a performance editor, not a traditional video editor.

You should have:

Proven experience editing direct-response or performance ad creative
Strong understanding of consumer psychology, hooks, and storytelling
Experience editing for Meta and TikTok specifically
Ability to turn raw, imperfect footage into compelling, high-performing ads
Comfort working in a fast-paced, high-output environment
Willingness to test, fail, learn, and iterate quickly

You will succeed here if you:

Obsess over the first 1–3 seconds of a video
Think in terms of retention, pacing, and engagement
Are driven by results, not just creative expression
Can take direct feedback and improve fast
Enjoy moving quickly and shipping often
