Video Editor for Performance Ads

We’re looking for an experienced Video Editor who specializes in creating short-form video ads for TikTok and other social platforms.

We’re currently scaling an app and looking for someone who understands how to create creatives that actually perform. This is not just about making videos look good. You should understand hooks, angles, pacing, retention, and direct response advertising.

What you’ll do

• Create short form video ads for TikTok and other platforms
• Research and study successful creatives in our niche
• Analyze TikTok profiles and competitor ads for creative inspiration
• Recreate and adapt successful creative concepts while making them original
• Develop different hooks, angles, openings, and variations
• Edit UGC style videos, talking head videos, screen recordings, and other ad formats
• Create multiple creative variations for testing
• Keep videos engaging and optimized for retention
• Work closely with the team to improve creatives based on performance

AI is allowed

You are welcome to use AI tools to speed up your workflow and improve your creative output. We care more about the quality and performance of the final creative than whether it was produced manually or with AI assistance.

What we’re looking for

• Proven experience creating TikTok or performance ad creatives
• Strong understanding of hooks, angles, and creative concepts
• Experience editing short form content
• Ability to identify why certain ads work and turn those insights into new creatives
• Fast turnaround and ability to produce multiple variations
• Strong attention to detail
• Comfortable researching and taking inspiration from existing successful creatives
