JOB OVERVIEW

READ THIS FIRST: To apply, start your message with the word "HOOK-READY". Applications without it get deleted unread. We do this to find people who actually pay attention to detail.

About Us

We run a portfolio of direct-to-consumer e-commerce brands (health/wellness and beauty). We move fast, test constantly, and live and die by our ad creative. We're not a corporate agency. You'll work directly with the founder, get quick feedback, and see your edits go live in real campaigns within days.

The Role

You'll turn raw footage, and static images into scroll-stopping direct-response video ads for Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok. This is performance editing, not pretty edits. The goal is ads that stop the scroll in the first 2 seconds and drive sales.

What You'll Do

Cut short-form video ads (15–60s) from raw UGC, stock, statics, and AI footage
Build strong hooks and pattern interrupts in the first 3 seconds
Add captions, subtitles, sound design, music, and simple motion graphics
Use AI tools (AI voiceover, AI B-roll, upscaling, etc.) to speed up production
Repurpose and re-cut winning ads into fresh variations for testing
Deliver clean, platform-ready files fast, with minimal revisions

Must-Haves

1.5-2+ year editing short-form video ads (DTC/e-commerce or UGC ads strongly preferred)
Fluent in CapCut and/or Premiere Pro / After Effects
You understand direct-response: hooks, retention, CTAs, pacing (not just "aesthetic" edits)
Strong written English and reliable communication
Fast turnaround and comfortable with high volume + frequent testing
Stable internet and a machine that can handle 1080p editing without crawling
Nice-to-Have
Experience with AI creative tools (Runway, ElevenLabs, Higgsfield, Topaz, etc.)
Basic understanding of Facebook/TikTok ad performance
Portfolio with paid ad results or view/conversion numbers

Hours & Growth

Start at 20 hrs/week. If you're fast, reliable, and your ads perform, this grows into more hours and a higher rate. We keep good people long-term.

How to Apply (follow exactly — this is the test)

Start your message with HOOK-READY
Link your portfolio f.e AI UGC ads — no wedding videos or vlogs), Long Form UGC, VSL, Cartoon, Claymation

Tell us in 2–3 sentences: which ad in your portfolio performed best, and why the hook worked
List your editing tools and any AI tools you use

Confirm your weekly availability and internet speed (run ---------- and paste the number)
Applications that skip any step, or lead with a generic "I'm hardworking and passionate" intro, will not be reviewed.
