Posted 5 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

ABOUT We're a fast-growing DTC beauty/skincare brand scaling paid social hard. We're building an in-house creative team and need a long-term, AI-native video editor to help us ship at high volume. WHAT YOU'LL DO * Edit direct-response video ads for Meta: VSLs (our main format), UGC-style, cartoon/animated, music-driven, and product-animation concepts * Work with AI-generated b-roll and assets — we provide the script, voiceover, and a clear brief for every concept * Build a winning concept, then iterate fast: multiple variants per winner (hook swaps, cut-downs 15/30/60s, 9:16 + 1:1) * Bake clean captions, sound design / music sync, color, and pacing built for retention WHO WE WANT * A portfolio of AI-driven ads you've edited (cartoon, UGC AI, product-animated, AI b-roll) * Prior experience editing for real brands (not just personal projects) * Genuine VSL experience — long-form retention editing, not only 15s clips * Skincare/beauty experience is a big plus * Ability to generate your own AI assets (Veo / Kling / Higgsfield / Midjourney / Runway) is a plus — not required * Reliable, hits deadlines, comfortable with consistent volume WHAT WE OFFER * Long-term, stable work with consistent weekly volume (ongoing, not a one-off) * Paid trial → 2 weeks working trial → ongoing retainer → path to a lead editor role as we scale * Clear briefs, scripts and assets for every concept — you focus on the edit * Performance bonuses on winning ads HOW WE WORK Clear brief, script and assets for every concept, plus fast feedback on your cuts so you're never stuck. We're scaling our creative system right now — you'll have real input into the process and tools as the team grows. We move fast and reward people who do the same. WHO WE DON'T WANT Wedding / corporate / cinematic editors, anyone with no direct-response or ads background, or anyone who can't commit to steady volume.
