This role combines hands-on video editing with creative team leadership in a fast-paced performance marketing environment.
You will create high-volume, short-form ads designed to capture attention and drive measurable results on Meta.
Using advanced AI video tools, you’ll transform scripts, briefs, and references into polished, authentic-looking creative.
You’ll experiment with emerging technologies while mastering AI-generated UGC, product integration, animation, hooks, pacing, and sound.
As the team grows, you’ll also lead editors, manage creative KPIs, coach performance, and help scale the editing function.
The role suits a highly driven editor who thrives under pressure, moves quickly, and stays ahead of AI video trends.
You’ll have significant influence over creative quality, production speed, and the performance of the video pipeline.
Produce 15–20 short-form paid ads per week, typically 15–60 seconds, for Meta campaigns.
Turn scripts, briefs, and reference videos into engaging performance-focused creative using AI video and editing tools.
Create realistic UGC-style advertisements using AI-generated voices, actors, scenes, graphics, and other visual elements without relying on real UGC.
Integrate real products naturally into AI-generated scenes, including realistic lighting, positioning, overlays, and visual continuity.
Develop scroll-stopping hooks, strong pacing, captions, music, sound design, and other elements that improve viewer engagement.
Continuously evaluate and adopt emerging AI video technologies and workflows to improve creative output and production speed.
Source footage, B-roll, reference material, and other visual assets efficiently from resources.
During the initial 2–4 weeks, focus primarily on editing to understand the brand, creative standards, hooks, and winning formats.
As the team expands, manage editors and ensure weekly production and quality KPIs are consistently achieved.
Conduct regular 1:1s and team check-ins, provide feedback and coaching, and address performance issues proactively.
Support hiring decisions and team growth, including bringing on additional editors as production volume increases and managing underperformance when necessary.
Own creative output KPIs and collaborate with marketing stakeholders to identify patterns in successful ads and address recurring creative issues.
Be available on weekends when production volume requires additional support.
3+ years of experience editing short-form paid advertisements, particularly UGC, DTC, or performance-focused creative.
1+ year of experience managing editors or other creatives in a paid-media or agency environment.
Strong hands-on experience with AI video tools such as Higgsfield, Runway, Kling, Flow, and Sora, with the ability to independently learn new platforms as they emerge.
Proficiency with CapCut or Adobe Premiere, with After Effects experience.
Demonstrated ability to combine AI-generated footage with real product assets so the final result appears natural and seamless.
Strong understanding of short-form advertising principles, including hooks, pacing, captions, audio, visual storytelling, and audience retention.
Ability to source footage, B-roll, and reference clips quickly and efficiently using resources.
Comfortable working at high speed under changing priorities, tight turnaround times, and same-day creative iterations.
Strong written and spoken English, with the communication skills needed to lead meetings, provide feedback, and coach team members.
Strong understanding of creative performance and, ideally, familiarity with advertising metrics.
Experience personally editing videos that have received real Meta advertising spend is a plus.
Reliable computer capable of handling demanding video rendering and editing workloads, along with a stable internet connection.
Comfortable working with Slack, Google Drive, and project management tools such as ClickUp.
Monthly salary of $1,800–$2,500.
Full-time, fully remote position.
Opportunity to work at the intersection of performance marketing, video editing, and rapidly evolving AI technology.
Hands-on ownership of high-volume creative production and AI-powered video workflows.
