Summary

About us We're NOVOS — a science-first longevity company built by scientists from Harvard, MIT, Columbia, Duke, and Yale. We make supplements and biological-age tests that help people stay themselves for longer. NOVOS Core is the first formula built to target all 12 mechanisms of aging at once — patent-pending, based on 400+ studies, and the only supplement shown to extend lifespan in aged mice by nearly 20%. Our category is loud, exaggerated, and visually noisy. We're the opposite: restrained, rigorous, human-first. We're looking for an editor who understands that restraint reads as premium — and who can still stop a thumb mid-scroll. The role You'll own video production across YouTube, social (Meta, Instagram, TikTok), and web. That means both: • Long-form — founder content, science explainers, customer-story features, podcast-style cuts • Short-form — vertical hooks, ad creative variants, organic social, and cutdowns repurposed from long-form This is an ongoing engagement with ad-hoc project requests on a weekly basis — some weeks a single hero edit, some weeks a batch of short-form variants. We need someone reliable, fast, and self-directed enough to turn briefs around without hand-holding. And this isn't a pure editing seat. We want someone who thinks like a marketer first and an editor second — someone who understands buyer psychology at each stage of consideration, and can build creative that moves a viewer from curious to convinced to customer. One standard that runs through everything we make When we talk about our products, we say things no other brand could say. If a competitor could swap their logo onto our creative and run it unchanged, we've failed. "Backed by science" is a line anyone can steal. "The only supplement shown to extend lifespan in aged mice by nearly 20%" is ours alone. You'll be expected to reach for the specific, ownable proof point every time — not the generic wellness gloss the category drowns in. What you'll actually do • Cut long-form founder and educational content, then atomize it into short-form across channels • Build top-of-funnel hooks that lead with emotional truth, and mid-funnel creative that leads with proof — clinical charts, press logos, credibility overlays • Produce multiple creative variants per concept for A/B testing: different hooks, different opening frames, different pacing • Turn real customer before/after stories into scroll-stopping features Hold a consistent visual system across every format: clean, editorial, science-supported, never gimmicky You're a strong fit if you • Have a reel showing both long-form storytelling and high-performing short-form • Understand what makes people buy — you've made creative that converted, not just creative that looked good • Know the difference between top-of-funnel and bottom-of-funnel creative, and can name why a hook works • Have worked with (or aspire to the standard of) premium, considered brands — Apple, AG1, Seed — not typical supplement-ad energy • Can take a rough brief and return something sharper than what was asked for • Are fast, self-directed, and comfortable owning production end-to-end Bonus points • Experience in health, wellness, longevity, or DTC supplements • Comfort with claims-sensitive content — our copy is FDA/FTC-compliant, and video is no exception (we'll guide you) • Motion graphics / data-visualization skills for science explainers To apply Send your reel or portfolio. In 2–3 sentences, tell us about one piece of video content you made that drove a real business result — and why you think it worked. Applications without a reel and that note won't be reviewed.
