SENIOR AI VIDEO EDITOR (AI DRAMA) FOR A SCALING E-COMMERCE BRAND PORTFOLIO | $1,500/MO + PERFORMANCE BONUSES

SENIOR AI VIDEO EDITOR (AI DRAMA) FOR A SCALING E-COMMERCE BRAND PORTFOLIO | $1,500/MO + PERFORMANCE BONUSES

We run a portfolio of direct-to-consumer brands and we are scaling the next ones right now. We are looking for one dedicated, long-term video editor to join us full time and own video production for our paid ads on Meta.

READ THIS FIRST

This is a senior role. We are looking for the best editors in the game, not people who are still learning.

If you are a beginner, a student, or someone who has edited a few TikToks for friends, this is not the job for you. We respect your time, so please respect ours and do not apply.

If you have been cutting direct response ads for e-commerce brands for years, you understand hooks, retention and why an ad converts, and you already work with AI video tools daily, keep reading.

WHAT WE ARE FOCUSED ON RIGHT NOW: AI DRAMA

Our main format right now is AI drama: ads built from realistic, movie-style AI scenes with real characters, real emotion and a story that pulls the viewer in and sells.

If you have experience producing AI drama ads (Seedance, Kling, Veo, Google Flow or similar), this is a huge bonus for you. Send us your AI drama work first and put it at the top of your application. Candidates with real AI drama experience will be moved to the front of the line.

Other formats you will work on:

• AI talking heads and authority figure videos
• UGC-style ads (Kling, HeyGen)
• Short-form AI animation (Google Flow)
• VSLs built from proven scripts

WHAT YOU WILL DO

• Turn our proven winning scripts and messaging into finished video ads
• Deliver around 2 video batches per day, each with 3 hook variations
• Roughly 6 minutes of edited material per day (typically two videos of 2 to 3 minutes)
• Work from clear briefs and references from us, then execute at a high level with minimal hand holding
• Prompt, generate and assemble AI footage, then cut it into ads that convert
• Build and reuse a b-roll library so production gets faster over time

WHO YOU ARE

• Senior editor with real experience in e-commerce direct response video ads
• Daily hands-on experience with AI video tools, not just "I tried it once"
• You already pay for your own AI video tools and use them every day
• You understand pacing, hooks, retention and story structure for paid ads
• Fast, reliable, consistent, and you take ownership of your output
• Available full time and looking for a long-term seat, not a one-off gig
• Strong written English

THE PAID PRE-TRIAL ($150)

Before we hire anyone, shortlisted candidates complete a paid pre-trial. This is how we separate the real editors from the rest.

• We pay $150 for the pre-trial
• The task: produce one AI drama video, approximately 6 to 8 minutes long, from a brief we give you
• You use your own AI tools and your own subscriptions. We do not provide tool access for the pre-trial.
• Paid tools only. Free tiers, free trials and watermarked outputs will not be accepted and we are not taking any excuses about it.
• We expect high quality output with consistent characters, consistent scenes and clean, professional editing from start to finish
• Your pre-trial is the d ---------- factor. The hire comes from the pre-trial results, not from the CV.

If you are not sure you can deliver this, or you do not have paid AI tools of your own, do not apply.

THE OFFER

• Flat monthly fee: $1,500 USD
• Performance bonuses on top of the flat fee, paid every time a batch of your ads wins in the ad account. Your results are rewarded directly.
• Full access to our AI tool stack once hired
• Dedicated, long-term collaboration with a brand portfolio, not a one-brand startup

HOW TO APPLY

1. Put "AI DRAMA" as the first word of your application so we know you read this
2. Link to your portfolio of ad work, with your AI drama examples first if you have them
3. Tell us in 3 to 5 lines which paid AI video tools you use daily and which e-commerce brands or niches you have edited for
4. Confirm you are available full time and that you can complete the pre-trial with your own paid tools

Applications without a portfolio will not be reviewed. Generic copy-paste applications will be ignored.

Shortlisted candidates receive the $150 pre-trial brief, and the best editor gets hired.

One last thing: write the word BOOK as the very first word of your application, so we know you read everything.
