Full Time

We are looking for a full-time DTC Video Editor to join our growing skincare brand.
This is not a role for someone who only wants to make beautiful-looking videos.
We care about one thing above everything else:
Does the creative make people stop, watch, and buy?
A simple video that converts is far more valuable to us than a cinematic edit that doesn’t generate sales.
You need to understand direct-response creative structure: hooks, pacing, retention, storytelling, offers, CTAs, and why people keep watching or scroll away.
We’re looking for someone who wants to become part of the team, take ownership of their work, continuously improve, and grow with us long term.
Compensation & Bonuses:
Base pay is $5–$6 per hour, depending on your experience and skill level.
But your base salary is only one part of your earning potential.
We have a strong performance-based bonus system where editors can earn up to $1,000 from a single winning video.
In strong months, there is potential to earn 3–5x your base salary through performance bonuses.
When the brand performs better, we all make more money together.
We also offer:
- Performance bonuses for winning creatives
- Annual tenure / loyalty bonuses
- Additional performance-based rewards
- Opportunities for higher compensation as you grow with the company
We want the people who help us grow to benefit from that growth as well.
What You’ll Be Doing:
You will be creating English-language direct-response video ads for a skincare DTC brand.
Your job will include:
- Editing performance-focused DTC creatives
- Turning scripts, concepts, footage, UGC, B-roll, and AI-generated content into finished ads
- Creating strong hooks that stop the scroll
- Creating and integrating AI-generated video scenes
- Improving creatives based on feedback and performance
- Continuously learning what makes an ad convert
We don’t expect every creative to look like a movie.
We expect you to understand why an ad works.
What We’re Looking For:
Previous experience creating video ads for DTC / Shopify brands is REQUIRED.
Please do not apply if you have only edited YouTube videos, wedding videos, gaming videos, corporate videos, or traditional social media content without direct-response e-commerce experience.
You should:
- Have experience editing DTC performance creatives
- Understand hooks, CTAs, pacing, retention, storytelling, and direct-response advertising
- Have experience creating AI-generated video content
- Have hands-on experience with Higgsfield
- Have experience with ElevenLabs
- Be highly comfortable with CapCut and/or Adobe editing software
- Be able to work independently without needing step-by-step instructions for everything
- Be open to feedback and willing to improve quickly
- Have a strong desire to learn and develop your creative skills
- Be interested in a long-term position rather than a short-term freelance project
We Invest in Your Growth:
We’re not looking for someone to simply complete tasks for us.
We’re looking for someone we can grow with for years.
We have a large amount of internal training, creative frameworks, examples, resources, and educational material that we will share with you.
We continuously invest in new training and education, and we want to help you become a significantly better direct-response editor and creative thinker over time.
The better you become, the better our creatives become.
And when our creatives perform better, everyone wins.
Working Style:
100% Remote
You can set your own working hours.
We care much more about ownership, communication, deadlines, consistency, and output than the exact hours you choose to work.
We want a teammate who takes responsibility for their work and treats the brand like something they are helping build, not someone who simply clocks in and waits for instructions.
Hiring Process:
1. Short Test Task
A short unpaid test task that should take approximately 2–4 hours.
You will complete the test using your own tools.
You will have 48 hours to complete it.
2. Two-Week Paid Trial
If you pass the test, you will move into a two-week paid trial period.
During the trial, you will be expected to work a minimum of 20 hours per week.
The trial is fully paid, and from this stage onward, we will provide access to the paid tools required for the role.
3. Regular Contract
If the trial goes well and we are both happy working together, you will move into a regular long-term contract at your full salary, with access to our performance bonus system.
How to Apply:
Please send us the following:
1. How many years have you been editing videos?
2. Send us your portfolio of creatives that you personally edited.
(Please prioritize DTC / e-commerce advertising work.)
3. Send us your 3 best-performing videos separately.
(We specifically want to see the three creatives you believe achieved the strongest results.)
4. Give us a brief summary of your experience with:
- Higgsfield
- Chatgpt/Gemini
- ElevenLabs
- Shopify / DTC brands
IMPORTANT:
Start your application with the words: "BLACK"
If your application does not start with BLACK, your application will not be read.
