Video Editing Specialist (Direct Response / AI Video Editor)

Qualifications and requirements

Fluency in at least one major editing workflow (Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, or comparable). Fluent, near-native English is mandatory, with accurate captions and comfort presenting on a team call with no language barrier. AI-capable: able to build full AI-generated video ads using tools and models such as Veo 3, Kling 3.0, Seedance, and similar platforms. Comfortable creating voiceovers with tools like ElevenLabs and stitching AI scenes, voiceover, subtitles, graphics, and music into one harmonious edit. Solid understanding of direct-response video: hooks, pacing, captions, and CTAs. E-commerce, direct-to-consumer, or digital product editing experience strongly preferred (not generic dropshipping content). A clear, organized portfolio with playable video links is required.

Job functions

Edit and assemble performance-focused video ads for paid social and other growth channels. Work from creative briefs, scripts, raw footage, AI-generated clips, voiceovers, and brand guidelines. Build strong openings and hooks, maintain pacing, and add accurate captions with no grammar mistakes. Select appropriate music and sound effects, incorporate B-roll and AI-generated footage, and ensure every asset feels cohesive from hook to CTA. Maintain a clean editing workflow, organize files clearly, meet deadlines, and communicate proactively when something is unclear or blocked.

Desirable skills

Familiarity with project management tools like Notion, Monday.com, or ClickUp, and Slack for day-to-day communication. Understanding of performance creative testing, Meta ads, TikTok-style pacing, UGC structures, and AI-assisted creative iteration will help you stand out.
