AI Editor for DTC Brand (Long-Term)

IMPORTANT — READ CAREFULLY: Begin your application with the word "SCROLL-STOP" as the very first word. If it's missing, we assume you didn't read the post and we skip you. This is how we find detail-oriented people.

Who We Are

We're a direct-to-consumer e-commerce operation currently doing around $200K/month in revenue, and growing. We run multiple brands in the health and beauty space, and our growth is driven almost entirely by paid video ads. This is a real, scaling business — not a side project. We're looking for one editor to grow with us over the long term, not a one-off freelancer.

Why This Role Matters

Our ads are the business. Every dollar we spend depends on creative that stops the scroll and sells. That's your job. You'll be one of the most important people in the operation, working directly with the founder, with your work going live in real campaigns within days.

Your Day-to-Day

Edit short-form video ads (15–60s) from raw UGC, statics, stock, and AI-generated footage
Nail the first 3 seconds — strong hooks and pattern interrupts that stop the scroll
Add captions, sound design, music, and light motion graphics
Use AI tools (AI voiceover, AI b-roll, upscaling) to produce faster
Re-cut and remix winning ads into fresh test variations
Deliver clean, platform-ready files quickly, with few revisions needed

What You Need

1.5-2+ year editing short-form video ads — DTC / e-commerce / UGC ads strongly preferred
Confident in CapCut and/or Premiere Pro (After Effects a plus)
You get direct-response: hooks, retention, pacing, CTAs — not just "nice-looking" edits
Strong written English and clear, reliable communication
Comfortable with high volume and constant testing
Stable internet and a computer that edits 1080p smoothly

Bonus Points

Experience with AI creative tools (Runway, ElevenLabs, Higgsfield, Topaz, etc.)
Basic grasp of how Facebook / TikTok ad performance works
Portfolio showing paid ad results or view/conversion numbers

The Long-Term Picture

We start at 20 hrs/week to make sure we're a fit. If you're fast, reliable, and your ads perform, this becomes a long-term partnership — more hours, higher rate, and a real seat in a business that's scaling. We invest in people who deliver.
