Show job description

We're a fast-growing direct-to-consumer health & wellness brand in the back pain and sciatica space. We scale on paid acquisition, and two kinds of creative do most of the selling: long-form VSLs and AI-generated ads.


And we're continuing to scale. More angles. More batches. More VSLs. And a lot more AI content — AI movies, AI animations, ads built start to finish with AI. That's where we're putting our weight next.


Which means we need an editor on the team full-time... Someone who can do both, and keep up with the volume without sacrificing quality.


We're hiring a full-time Direct Response Video Editor to help us build the next generation of creative for the brand.


What You'll Actually Be Doing


  • You'll edit direct-response video across two priority formats:
  • VSLs — long-form (2–10+ minutes), plus the shorter paid ads cut from them.
  • AI-generated ads — AI movies and dramas with real dialogue, AI animations, and medical animations that explain what's going on inside the body.
  • You'll also cut the rest of what we run: UGC, story ads told straight to camera, testimonials, product-focused ads.
  • You'll turn scripts, voiceovers, raw footage, AI-generated shots and creative briefs into finished ads built for performance.
  • You'll build the motion graphics that carry the argument: anatomical overlays, animated callouts, pain-point animations (think radiating nerve pain), product highlights. The goal is to make the claim clearer — never exaggerated, never gimmicky.
  • You'll use AI across the whole workflow — generating scenes and characters, extending b-roll, generative fill, upscaling, cleanup, AI voiceover — so more creative ships, faster, at a higher standard.
  • You'll iterate off performance data. When an ad wins, you cut the variations. When it loses, we look at where people dropped off and you fix it.
  • You'll work directly with me — no layers, no committee, no three rounds of approvals.
  • You'll receive feedback. You'll revise. You'll improve.


We're Probably a Fit If...


  • You've already edited direct-response ads for DTC/eCommerce brands — VSLs ideally. Health, wellness or supplement experience is a plus, not a requirement.
  • You've made AI-generated video that sells — not just cool clips. You can keep a character looking like the same person from shot to shot, and you can make an AI scene feel real enough that people stop scrolling.
  • You understand that a VSL is not the same thing as editing a YouTube video, TikTok, podcast, or brand commercial.
  • You understand direct response — retention pacing, watch time, and the fact that the edit's job is to sell.
  • You've worked inside a high-volume creative environment.
  • You can show us examples where your editing helped turn a script and voiceover into something people couldn't stop watching.
  • You can execute motion graphics — or you're genuinely willing to learn them fast. Our creative leans on visual explanation, so this doesn't stay optional.
  • You're the one who finds the new AI tool first. If something new makes the ad better or faster, you've already tested it and you bring it to us.
  • You can follow a detailed brief precisely, and take feedback without ego.
  • You want one brand to go deep on — not six clients to juggle. This is a full-time seat, and your work will directly move how far this brand scales.
  • You should be comfortable working with tools such as: Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Frame.io, Google Drive, Dropbox — plus AI video, image and voice tools (Kling, Veo, Runway, Higgsfield, Midjourney, ElevenLabs or similar).


This is not for beginners, and it's not for cinematic vlog editors. It's for performance-driven editors.

Work from wherever you're most productive. It's fully remote — but it is a full-time, 45–50 hour week, the deadlines are real, and you need to be responsive while a batch is moving.


What It Pays


  • $2,000–$3,000 USD per month, based on experience.
  • Full-time (45–50 hours per week), fully remote.
  • Performance-based bonus on assets that scale.
  • A steady pipeline of work — no chasing clients, no gaps between projects.
  • Long-term growth potential. As the brand scales, so does the seat.

  • Here's How Our Hiring Process Works.


    • First... Show us your work. Send your resume and your portfolio — VSLs and AI-generated ads first if you have them — plus a short paragraph on your experience with performance-driven editing, and when you could start.
    • If we like what we see, we'll invite you to complete a paid trial task.
    • You'll receive the trial assignment and instructions from us, and payment for the completed trial will be made on delivery, subject to the terms provided with the assignment.


    Strong at one, still learning the other? Send it anyway. If you've edited direct-response eCommerce ads and you're serious about the other half, we want to see it — that's the experience that actually transfers.


    We're hiring immediately.
