Performance Video Editor

VIDEO EDITOR (PAID MEDIA)
at IncubatorLab Remote - Worldwide

Incubator Lab is looking for a talented

Video Editor

to join our thriving team!

Role Objective:
As a Video Editor at IncubatorLab.ai, you will edit short-form paid social ads designed to drive performance across platforms such as Meta, TikTok, and YouTube. This role is ideal for editors who understand performance-first creative, work quickly, and iterate effectively based on feedback and results.

What You'll Do:

Edit short-form paid social video ads

Iterate on creative based on performance insights

Apply best practices around hooks, pacing, clarity, and CTAs

Collaborate asynchronously with Creative Strategists and Growth teams

Maintain quality and consistency across high-volume output

Requirements we are looking for:

2+ years experience specializing strictly in direct-to-consumer (D2C) and e-commerce video editing.

Must present a portfolio showcasing high-performing paid social ad creatives and conversion-focused assets explicitly built for e-commerce brands.

Proven track record editing for health, wellness, and supplement brands.

Deeply proficient with generative AI video suites, specifically demonstrating portfolio work that features AI animations, advanced asset generation, and highly engaging talking-head enhancements.

Strong proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro and Media Encoder

Working knowledge of After Effects

Strong fundamentals in pacing, color correction, audio mixing, and music selection

Strong English communication skills

Comfort working remotely in a fast-paced environment

Working Hours: Async-First
We are a global, remote team. We don't care when you do the work, provided deadlines are met and the quality is top-tier. We do ask for a few hours of overlap with

US-based EST working hours

each day to facilitate team meetings and Slack communication. This ensures we stay agile and can iterate on winning ads in real-time.

HOW TO APPLY
We value high-retention storytelling over cinematic flair. To be considered, please submit a link to your

portfolio or reel

specifically highlighting your work with

DTC (Direct-to-Consumer), UGC-style, or Direct Response video ads.

We are particularly interested in seeing:

The First 3 Seconds:

Examples of aggressive, scroll-stopping hooks that immediately grab attention.

UGC Integration:

Proof that you can take raw, "low-fi" phone footage and edit it into a high-converting, native-feeling social ad.

Pacing & Retention:

Ads that demonstrate a mastery of "pattern interrupts"—using captions, zooms, and sound design to keep viewers engaged until the CTA.

Iteration Ability:

If possible, show us two versions of the same ad where you tested different hooks or visual styles.

Note: We are specifically looking for a "Performance Creative" reel—please do not send long-form documentaries, wedding films, or cinematic shorts. We want to see fast-paced, high-retention, short-form ads that drive conversions.

Bonus points if you include a link to a TikTok or Reel you've edited that went viral.
