Schedule: Full-time, Remote.

A U.S.-based growth marketing agency is looking for a Video Editor who lives and breathes UGC-style paid social content. You’ll be editing videos that look native to TikTok, Instagram, Meta, and YouTube—but are strategically built to convert. This opportunity offers flexible hours and async collaboration, making it an ideal fit for a creative professional based in Latin America who is excited to produce thumb-stopping content for DTC brands across fashion, beauty, wellness, and more. You’ll work closely with a small, fast-moving team—including the founder—to turn raw footage into high-performing ads that don’t feel like ads.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit short-form video ads optimized for performance across TikTok, Instagram Reels, Meta, and YouTube Shorts
• Turn UGC clips, voiceovers, testimonials, and product footage into scroll-stopping creatives
• Add motion graphics, captions, titles, and branded elements that feel native to each platform
• Apply fast-paced cuts, strong hooks, transitions, music, and sound design to boost watch time and CTR
• Collaborate with strategists and designers to align content with campaign goals and audience insights
• Stay ahead of platform trends, ad formats, and viral content styles
• Manage quick turnarounds, revisions, and asset delivery with strong attention to detail

Required Qualifications

• Experience Required: 1-3 years of experience editing video for DTC brands, performance marketing, or agencies
• A strong reel/portfolio of paid ad creatives, especially UGC-style content for TikTok, Meta, and YouTube
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro; bonus if you have experience with After Effects or motion graphics
• Deep understanding of storytelling, pacing, hooks, and platform-native editing
• Ability to edit for performance, not just aesthetics—making cuts based on what drives results
• Fluency in English (written and spoken)
• Comfortable working remotely and managing multiple projects independently
• Based in Latin America (required)

Preferred Qualifications

• Past experience with eCommerce / DTC brands
• Familiarity with ad creative testing and creative strategy
• Experience working with founders or small teams
• Comfortable reviewing creative performance and iterating on feedback

Benefits & Perks

• Benefits: Competitive pay based on experience and region
• Flexible hours
• 100% remote (LATAM candidates only)
• Opportunity to impact brands growing from startup to 8-figures
• High ownership and creative freedom
