Performance Marketing Video Editor

Role Description

We’re looking for a performance-minded Video Editor to support RYZE’s paid social advertising engine across Meta and TikTok. This role is highly executional, fast-paced, and deeply rooted in direct-response performance marketing.

You’ll take raw footage, scripts, and existing assets and turn them into high-converting social ads, leveraging both traditional editing techniques and AI-powered creative tools. This is not a brand-only role — performance, iteration speed, and creative precision matter here.

What You’ll Do

• Edit raw video footage into high-quality, conversion-focused social media ads aligned with RYZE’s performance standards.
• Assemble ads using provided scripts, storyboards, and existing assets to support testing velocity.
• Add captions, transitions, sound design, music, b-roll, and visual effects to maximize engagement and clarity.
• Ensure strong pacing, flow, and timing optimized for paid social performance.
• Write and apply clear, accurate, and compelling English captions that reinforce messaging and hooks.
• Apply color correction and visual enhancements to maintain brand consistency.
• Use Adobe Premiere Pro as the primary editing tool; leverage After Effects and Photoshop as needed.
• Actively use AI creative tools (AI video, voice, image, and asset generation) to improve speed, efficiency, and output quality.
• Manage multiple ad edits and iterations simultaneously while meeting deadlines.
• Incorporate feedback quickly and efficiently based on creative direction and performance data.
• Review basic ad performance metrics (e.g., thumb-stop rate, hold rate, CTR) and apply insights to future iterations.
• Produce performance-driven variations (hooks, intros, pacing, CTAs) based on results.
• Stay current on paid social editing trends, platform best practices, and emerging AI tools.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of hands-on video editing experience.
• Proven experience editing paid social ads for platforms like Facebook and TikTok.
• Strong portfolio showcasing short-form, performance-driven ad creatives.
• Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro; working knowledge of After Effects and Photoshop.
• Solid understanding of audio editing, captioning, pacing, and color correction.
• Comfort working with AI tools as part of daily creative production.
• Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
• Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and iterate quickly.
• High attention to detail and comfort working within structured creative workflows.
• Open to direct feedback and fast turnaround expectations.

Benefits

• Competitive hourly or monthly contract compensation.
• Fully remote, flexible work environment.
• Opportunity to work on high-impact performance creative for a fast-growing brand.
• Access to RYZE creative assets, tools, templates, and performance insights.
