We're hiring a direct response video editor to create ad creative for two of our DTC e-commerce brands — one in the pet niche and one in the baby niche. ----------------------------- This is an ongoing role with consistent volume, starting ASAP. ----------------------------- What you'll be doing ----------------------------- Editing direct response video ads (UGC, static-style, hook-driven, problem/solution, testimonial cuts, etc.) for Meta. Cutting fast, punchy hooks and retention-focused pacing built for paid social. Sourcing and generating AI b-roll, transitions, and supporting visuals to elevate raw footage. Iterating quickly on winning concepts and producing variations for testing ----------------------------- Who we're looking for ----------------------------- Specialist in DR DTC Editing for E-Commerce brands - if you do YouTube Longform, LinkedIn, etc - DO NOT APPLY The ideal candidate needs to understand pacing, hook structure, pattern interrupts, captions, and what makes a DR ad convert (not just look pretty) Experience editing in the pet or baby niche (either is fine, both is a bonus) Strong AI tooling skills — specifically Higgsfield for AI b-roll generation, and comfort with Kling, Seedance, or similar video models.
