Video Editor (Performance Marketing)

Printfly is looking for a Video Editor who knows how to make people stop scrolling.

This role is built for someone with 4-6 years of editing experience, ideally in performance marketing, direct response, paid social, or short-form conversion-focused content.

That said, strong editing instincts matter most, so editors from other backgrounds are welcome if they understand pacing, emotion, and what keeps short-form content engaging.

This role starts as a hands-on editor helping shape ad creative, test new concepts, and turn raw footage into high-performing assets across Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and landing pages.

The right person will gradually take ownership of

• post-production workflows
• creative testing strategy
• mentoring junior editors

What You’ll Do

• Edit high-volume paid social ads and performance-driven creative
• Build multiple variations from a single concept for testing hooks, pacing, offers, and CTAs
• Work closely with the Creative Director on concepts, feedback, and iteration rounds
• Pull selects from long-form shoots, UGC, testimonials, and creator footage
• Add motion graphics, subtitles, sound design, and light VFX when needed
• Understand what makes a winning ad and use performance insights to improve future edits
• Help improve editing SOPs and post-production workflows as the team grows

What We’re Looking For

• 4-6 years of professional video editing experience
• Strong preference for performance marketing, paid social, or direct response editing experience
• Excellent instincts for pacing, comedic timing, emotional timing, and retention
• Deep understanding of short-form mobile-first editing styles
• Comfortable working quickly with tight turnaround times and multiple versions
• Able to take clear feedback and improve fast
• Interest in modern internet culture, hooks, memes, trends, and platform-native editing
• Portfolio that shows both storytelling ability and conversion-focused work

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Thinks like a direct response marketer first, editor second
• Social-first instincts with native understanding of platform pacing
• Fast without being sloppy
• Takes feedback to heart to improve future edits

Beyond strong taste, we’re looking for someone who can help build the backbone of post as we scale:

• Create repeatable editing workflows
• Build project templates and naming conventions
• Manage asset libraries and versioning
• Spot bottlenecks before they become problems

Bonus Points

Bonus points if you also have production and filming experience.

This is a major plus for someone who can jump in on shoots, think through coverage with the edit in mind, and help capture footage that’s built for performance.

• Comfortable shooting on an iPhone, mirrorless camera, or a DSLR
• Understands framing, lighting, audio, and how footage choices affect the edit
• Can think like an editor on set, capturing options that improve testing and versioning later
