JOB OVERVIEW

We are a fast-growing ecommerce brand looking for a talented video editor who understands more than just editing.

This is a senior role. We are looking for editors who can explain why a video works, not just how to edit one.

Do not apply if you don't have a real short-form content portfolio. No podcasts, slideshows, basic talking heads, or AI-only content.

We're looking for someone who understands attention, storytelling, hooks, retention, and performance. Someone who can contribute ideas, angles, and creative direction—not just execute instructions.

## What You'll Do

* Edit short-form videos for Meta, TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts
* Create multiple hook variations from the same concept
* Improve pacing, captions, storytelling, and retention
* Help brainstorm new creative concepts and winning angles
* Analyze top-performing creatives and iterate on what works
* Stay up to date with trends, editing techniques, and AI tools

## What We're Looking For

* Strong portfolio of short-form content, UGC, or paid social ads
* Strong understanding of hooks, pacing, retention, and viewer psychology
* Comfortable working independently
* Accepts feedback well and continuously improves
* Brings ideas, not just execution
* Proficient with CapCut, Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or similar editing software

## Bonus

* Experience with Meta ads
* Experience with AI creative tools
* Ecommerce experience

## What Makes This Different

* Direct collaboration with high-performing editors, creative strategists, and founder
* Work alongside a team actively testing and scaling creative every week
* Access to real creative performance data and insights
* See the actual results of your work, including winning concepts, hooks, and angles
* Learn from successful creatives instead of guessing what works
* Opportunity to contribute ideas, not just edit
* Fast feedback loops and continuous creative iteration
* Long-term growth opportunities for the right person

## Compensation

Compensation is based on experience, skill level, and fit. Please include your expected monthly compensation in your application.

## To Apply

Please send:

* Your portfolio
* Your availability
* Expected monthly compensation

If you do not have 3 strong short-form videos to showcase your work, you may still apply if you are willing to complete a non-paid test edit.

All shortlisted candidates will be required to complete a short test edit before being invited to an interview.
