We’re looking for an AI Video Editor who knows how to turn creative briefs into high-performing paid social ads at speed.

This is a hands-on execution role for someone who already works with AI-generated video, UGC-style creatives, direct-response editing, and performance advertising . You’ll work closely with a Senior Creative Strategist, who will provide the angles, scripts, and creative direction. Your job is to turn those briefs into polished, ready-to-launch video ads.

This is not a creative strategy or media buying role.

What You’ll Do

Create high-performing video ads for Meta, TikTok, and other paid social channels

Generate AI video, UGC-style footage, product visuals, avatars, and supporting assets using tools such as Higgsfield, Kling, Veo, Seedance, Runway, ElevenLabs , and similar platforms

Edit raw and AI-generated assets into finished UGC, direct-response, VSL, and short-form ad creatives

Build multiple hooks, openings, cuts, pacing variations, and creative iterations from the same concept

Add captions, motion graphics, sound design, B-roll, transitions, product callouts, and other finishing elements

Work from scripts, references, and detailed creative briefs provided by the Senior Creative Strategist

Produce multiple high-quality creative variants every week for ongoing testing

Adapt winning concepts into new versions without losing the core creative strategy

Maintain a fast, organized production workflow and deliver consistently on deadline

What We’re Looking For

Strong hands-on experience producing paid social video ads

Experience with DTC, e-commerce, direct-response, or performance marketing

A portfolio containing real ads created for Meta, TikTok, or similar acquisition channels

Strong experience with AI video generation workflows

Hands-on experience with Higgsfield is highly preferred

Experience with tools such as Kling, Veo, Seedance, Runway, HeyGen, ElevenLabs , or similar

Strong editing skills in Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut , or comparable professional editing software

Experience creating UGC-style ads

VSL / Video Sales Letter experience is a strong advantage

Ability to produce and iterate creative at high volume

Strong understanding of hooks, pacing, retention, CTAs, and conversion-focused editing

Ability to follow someone else’s creative direction precisely rather than needing to own the strategy yourself

Strong Candidates Typically Have

Worked as a Video Editor, Performance Video Editor, Paid Social Video Editor, UGC Editor, AI Video Editor, or similar

Produced hundreds of paid ad creatives or worked in an environment where new ads were shipped every week

Worked directly with performance marketing teams, media buyers, creative strategists, or growth teams

Experience working with scaled DTC brands or performance creative agencies

Used performance feedback and A/B testing insights to create new iterations of existing ads

A portfolio showing ads that actually ran — not only cinematic, branding, YouTube, or organic social content

This Role Is Probably Not a Fit If

Most of your experience is traditional filming, videography, VFX, or cinematic production

Your portfolio is primarily YouTube videos, podcasts, music videos, brand films, or organic social content

You have little or no experience with paid acquisition creatives

You have not worked with AI video-generation tools

You prefer developing the overall creative strategy rather than executing detailed briefs

You focus on producing one highly polished video over several days instead of creating multiple strong variants quickly

You want to own media buying or campaign management

What Success Looks Like

Within your first months, you’ll be independently producing a consistent weekly pipeline of new AI-first UGC, VSL, and paid-social ad variants ready for testing, with minimal involvement required from the founder or Senior Creative Strategist in the editing process.

Is this role actually a fit for you?
