About Carpe Carpe is the fastest growing deodorant brand in the US. Our team is made up of smart people who genuinely care about the work, building together in person in downtown Durham, NC. The office is open and warm, with plenty of quiet niches when you need to focus, and the pace is fast. Who we're looking for We are looking for a Video Editor to work closely with our creative team and turn raw footage into ads people actually want to watch. One of the best parts of this role is the chance to learn short-form ad editing from some of the people who do it best, with real support along the way. You will never be figuring it out alone. You will edit a wide range of videos for Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, and sometimes national TV. The work spans vertical short-form for paid social and horizontal content for YouTube and TV. The feedback loop here is fast and genuinely fun. You cut something this week, it goes live next week, and a few days later you can see exactly how it performed. Then you fold in what you learned and make the next one even better. If you live in Premiere, think in hooks, and love the craft of making a cut land, you will feel at home here.
