## Description

We're looking for a sharp, creatively driven Senior Video Editor to own the visual execution of our Meta ad campaigns. You'll take approved scripts and turn them into detailed, conversion-focused visual direction documents that guide our editors and creators. You'll actively shape creative strategy, test new angles, and collaborate with copywriters, editors, and media buyers to scale winning ads. If you have a video editing background, deep DR experience, and want to step into a creative lead path, we want to hear from you.

Product category is flexible—health, beauty, pets, coffee, or DTC in general. What matters most is your experience with strong direct-response creative, VSLs, and translating scripts into effective visual directions.

**Key Responsibilities**

-   Translate copywriter scripts (via Loom) into scene-by-scene visual direction documents—covering shot selection, B-roll, pacing, transitions, text overlays, hooks, and editing style.
-   Direct talent, UGC creators, and AI avatars while selecting visuals that maximize conversion.
-   Collaborate with editors, copywriters, and media buyers to iterate on creatives based on real performance data.
-   Research competitor ads and test new hooks, angles, and formats while maintaining brand consistency.
-   Coordinate integration of AI-generated B-roll and avatars into final ad creatives.

## Requirements

-   **Location:** LATAM; EST-adjacent timezone ideal.
-   Background in video editing with a clear progression toward creative strategy.
-   Experience creating creative directions for heavy direct-response/VSL-style brands (e.g., City Beauty, Furlife, Dr. Marty Pets, Emma, Javy Coffee, Crown Naturale, or similar).
-   Product category is flexible—we're open to different types of products. What matters is strong DR creative, VSL experience, and script-to-visual translation skills.
-   Familiarity with storyboarding and visual production workflows.
-   Some involvement in creative strategy—angle development, audience research, and performance analysis.
-   Ideal candidate: Senior Video Editor or Junior Creative Strategist aiming for a creative lead role.
-   **Mindset:** Fast learner, proactive, ideas-driven, and comfortable in a fast-paced production environment.

## Benefits

-   USD salary.
-   **Bonus:** $100 per winning ad (uncapped).
