Working at the intersection of creativity and media buying, you will continuously iterate on content based on performance data and testing insights. The environment is fast-paced and highly experimental, requiring a strong understanding of what drives attention and action in short-form digital advertising. You will collaborate closely with media buyers to rapidly scale winning creatives and optimize underperforming ones. This is a performance-driven role where creative decisions directly influence campaign success.
Accountabilities:
- Edit and transform raw footage into 5–10+ high-performing ad variations with different hooks, angles, formats, and messaging.
- Create UGC-style ads, remixed content, and collages tailored for paid social platforms such as Meta and TikTok.
- Adapt and optimize video creatives specifically for CTV environments, ensuring format and pacing alignment.
- Implement and test hooks, CTAs, text overlays, and messaging variations to improve engagement and conversion.
- Optimize storytelling, pacing, and retention to align with performance marketing best practices.
- Collaborate closely with media buyers to iterate creatives based on campaign performance data.
- Continuously repurpose existing content into new variations for ongoing testing and scaling.
Requirements:
- 3+ years of experience in performance-driven video editing, ideally within DTC or eCommerce environments.
- Proven expertise creating ads for Meta (Facebook/Instagram), TikTok, and CTV platforms.
- Strong understanding of direct response advertising, hook-based editing, and short-form retention strategies.
- Experience working with performance metrics such as CTR, CPA, hook rate, and their relationship to creative effectiveness.
- Ability to quickly generate multiple variations from a single piece of content for testing and optimization.
- Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects (or equivalent tools), and CapCut or similar editing platforms.
- Basic motion graphics skills, including text animation, transitions, and overlays.
- Strong creative intuition combined with a data-driven mindset.
Benefits:
- Fully remote position, offering flexibility to work from anywhere.
- Competitive compensation aligned with experience and performance impact.
- Opportunity to work in a high-growth DTC / eCommerce environment.
- Fast-paced, creative, and performance-driven culture.
