Video Editor + Motion Designer,Reels, Ads & Short-Form

Role & responsibilities

We're a growth consultancy building ecommerce brands. We're hiring one editor who does three things well: fast short-form ad editing, proper motion design, and AI-generated photo creative. You'll work directly with our designer and media buyer, turning briefs into finished video and image creatives that are built to perform not just look good.

Short-form ads & social

• Edit 35 short-form ads, Reels and TikToks a day across brand accounts
• Cut hook-driven creatives: a hook in the first second, tight pacing, captions always on
• Build hook variations for testing — same body, five different openings
• Work from raw material: UGC clips, product footage, stock, screen recordings and AI-generated assets
• Apply current editing trends — transitions, text styles, sound and pacing — so every piece feels native to the feed and stops the scroll

Motion design, launch and teaser videos

• Produce launch and teaser videos, typically around 30 seconds, in After Effects or DaVinci Resolve
• Create SaaS and product videos: animated UI walkthroughs, feature highlights, screen-to-motion explainers
• Motion graphics: kinetic type, animated infographics, product callouts and transitions
• Logo and brand animations for intros and outros
• Turn winning static ads into motion versions

AI photo creative

• Use AI image generation tools to produce photo creatives — product scenes, lifestyle shots, backgrounds and ad variations
• Edit, retouch and composite AI output so it looks photoreal and on-brand, not obviously synthetic
• Deliver image variations alongside video, so the media buyer has a full set of assets to test

How we work

• Ship fast test creatives the same day; save the polish for proven winners
• Take creative direction from the designer and performance feedback from the media buyer, then iterate on what the numbers show

Preferred candidate profile

• 3–5 years of short-form video editing, ideally for ads, DTC or SaaS brands
• Strong motion design in After Effects — this is a core requirement, not a bonus
• Working knowledge of DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro; CapCut for fast turnaround
• Hands-on experience with AI image tools (such as Midjourney, Flux or Firefly) and the Photoshop skills to finish the output properly
• A portfolio showing both ad edits and motion work — launch videos, product explainers or animated graphics
• Understands ad structure: hook problem demo proof CTA
• Captions, sound design and pacing built for sound-off viewing
• Keeps up with editing trends and knows what's working on Meta and TikTok right now
• High output without dropping quality
• Bonus: AI video tools (Runway, Kling, Veo), editing for live Meta/TikTok ad accounts, Figma basics
• Strong English, with a daily overlap with US Eastern time

Please include a portfolio link with your application. Applications without one won't be reviewed.
