Full-Time AI Creative Specialist (Base Images for DTC Video Ads)
Kling · Higgsfield · Kie.ai · Song Ads · Movie-Style Ads | High-Level Creative Team | Growth Opportunity
We're a fast-growing international e-commerce brand with a 15-person performance marketing team built around creative testing. We're hiring a full-time AI Creative Specialist to create the base images that every one of our video ads is built on.
This is not a video editing role, but it is built for people who come from AI video.
You'll create the first frame: the core visual that our animation team turns into B-roll (Kling, Higgsfield) and our editors cut into final ads. That includes song-driven ads, cinematic movie-style ads, and classic DTC performance creatives.
If you've made AI ads before, you know the truth: a weak base image can't be saved in animation. Bad hands, plastic skin, warped products, and fake lighting all get worse once they move. You're the person who stops that at the source.
Our standard is simple: there should be almost no visible difference between your work and reality.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Turn storyboard briefs from our video editors into realistic, premium, conversion-focused base images
- Build animation-ready frames: composition, lighting, and subject placement that hold up when animated in Kling or Higgsfield
- Create visuals for song ads (music-led, emotional, lifestyle-driven) and movie-style ads (cinematic, trailer-grade, story-driven)
- Keep products, characters, and settings consistent across multiple frames in the same ad
- Use platforms like Kie.ai, Higgsfield, and Kling (plus whatever image models are winning right now) to get the best result per shot
- Spot and fix anything that looks AI-made, unnatural, or scammy before it reaches the animation team
- Test new models and workflows as they launch, and share what works with the team
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
Must-haves:
- Hands-on experience creating AI visuals for DTC / e-commerce ads
- Practical experience with Kling (image-to-video / "Klingmation"), Higgsfield, and Kie.ai or similar model aggregators
- Understanding of how a still image behaves once animated, and how to prompt and compose for that
- A sharp eye for realism: skin, hands, reflections, product accuracy, lighting, depth
- Taste for what makes an ad look expensive, trustworthy, and built to convert
Strong plus:
- Experience with song ads or cinematic/movie-style ad formats
- Background in AI video editing (you understand what editors need from you)
- Knowledge of Meta / TikTok ad performance and hook-driven creative
Work style:
- Full-time, around 50 hours per week
- Fast without sacrificing quality
- A-player mindset and full ownership of your output
- Wants to grow with the team long-term
COMPENSATION
$700 USD per month, full-time, remote
GROWTH OPPORTUNITY
You'll work inside a high-level performance marketing team that ships and tests creatives constantly. You'll see what wins, what fails, and why, and you'll learn the newest AI creative systems as they come out.
The goal isn't just making images.
It's becoming someone who understands how winning ads are built from the very first frame.
HOW TO APPLY
Send:
1. A portfolio of AI-generated ad visuals (base images, and animated results if you have them)
2. At least one example of a song ad or movie-style ad you contributed to
