  • Adapt content for platforms such as Meta, TikTok, YouTube and other paid/organic channels
  • Turn scripts, briefs and concepts into compelling visual stories
  • Use performance insights to identify what is working and apply those learnings to future creatives
  • Continuously test new AI tools, techniques and workflows to improve creative output and production speed
  • Collaborate with marketing and creative teams to develop and refine performance-driven content
  • Manage multiple creative projects while maintaining a high standard of quality and attention to detail
What Makes You a Great Fit?
  • 1+ year of hands-on experience in AI video editing or AI-assisted video production

  • Comfortable using platforms such as Higgsfield, Arcads, Runway, HeyGen, Descript, CapCut, Premiere Pro or similar
  • Experience creating paid social, UGC, direct-response or performance marketing content

  • Able to take a basic concept or script and turn it into an engaging finished video
  • Strong eye for visual quality, timing, composition and attention-grabbing content
  • Comfortable producing multiple creative variations quickly
  • Naturally curious about AI and constantly experimenting with new tools and workflows
  • Able to work independently, take feedback and iterate quickly
  • Strong understanding of social-first video formats and what makes content engaging
Bonus Points

  • Experience editing VSLs or direct-response advertising
  • Experience creating AI-generated avatars, UGC, voiceovers or product demonstrations
