We create, grow, and manage online brands that inspire customers and deliver real value through exceptional products and experiences. Our team thrives in a fully remote environment, combining creativity, data-driven strategy, and innovation to build scalable eCommerce solutions that perform.\nFrom concept to conversion, we specialize in developing brands that stand out in competitive markets-driven by a passion for design, storytelling, and customer satisfaction. Every product we launch reflects our commitment to quality, authenticity, and growth.\nAt Catch Creation, we believe great ideas can come from anywhere-and our remote-first culture allows talented people from around the world to collaborate, innovate, and bring those ideas to life.\nCatch Creation is a remote-first eCommerce company. We build and grow our own DTC brands - including Muddy Mat and Cloud K9 - and we grow them primarily through paid social advertising. That means creative is not a support function here. It's the engine. The ads we make determine how fast the business grows, which is why we invest heavily in the people who make them.\nWhat this job actually is:\nYou'll cut direct-response ads for our brands - vertical video, primarily Meta and TikTok, built to stop the scroll and sell.\nOur Creative Director writes the concept, sometimes loosely, sometimes very specifically. From there it's a conversation: you'll push back, bring your own angles, and shape how the idea actually gets made. The strongest ideas we run usually don't survive first contact with an editor unchanged, and that's the point.\nWhy this role is different from most editing jobs:\nMost editors deliver a file and never find out whether it worked.\nHere, your work goes live with real advertising spend behind it, and within days you'll know exactly how it performed - how many people watched past the hook, how many bought. You'll see your ideas tested against real customers spending real money, at a scale most editors never get access to.\nThat feedback loop is the whole reason this job is worth having. You'll get better faster than you would anywhere else, because you'll actually know what works instead of guessing.\nTo be clear about the model: most ads lose. That's expected, and it's how this works - we run a lot of ideas to find the few that break out. Nobody gets blamed for a test that didn't hit. What we care about is that you keep generating ideas and keep sharpening them. When one does break out, everyone knows it was yours.\nIf you're the kind of editor who's curious whether your instincts are actually right, you'll like it here. If you'd rather deliver a file and move on, you probably won't.\nOne honest note: the format is repetitive. You'll be making a lot of vertical ads in similar structures. The craft demands inside that narrow format are high, and the editors who thrive here get genuinely, unusually good at a specific thing - making the first three seconds work, cutting for retention, and turning a note into a better version fast.\nWhat you'll do:\nCut [8-12] ads per week, working from Creative Director briefs and collaborating on how each concept comes together\nAssemble UGC and influencer footage into ads that hold attention past the 3-second drop-off\nBuild subtitles, text overlays, motion graphics, and sound design that serve the message\nTurn around revision rounds within 24 hours\nBring your own angles and variations - especially on ads that are already winning\nAdapt winners into new formats, lengths, and platform cuts\nWhat we require:\nYou've edited paid social ads - Meta or TikTok - for DTC or eCommerce brands. Not just YouTube, not just brand or corporate work.\nFluent in Premiere Pro or After Effects (or both)\nYou can name what makes a hook work and why an ad loses viewers at second three\nYou have opinions about what makes an ad work, and you're willing to argue for them\nWritten English strong enough for async work - most of our communication is written, across time zones\nFull-time availability with no competing clients\nA portfolio containing work you personally cut\nNice to have:\nMotion graphics and animation beyond the basics\nExperience in pet, home, or lifestyle categories\nComfort with high-volume variant testing\nWhat we offer:\nFully remote, long-term, full-time\nPerformance data on everything you make, and incentives tied to ads that actually win\nDirect collaboration with an in-house Creative Director - you won't be guessing at what's wanted\nReal growth: our best editor started well below our current bar and got there by iterating\nCompensation:\n$15 - $30 per hour depending on skill set","description_format":"text","description_chars":4705,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":null,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":null,"security_clearance":false,"languages":[{"language":"English","level":"All levels","optional":false}]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[{"name":"United States","iso":"US","kind":"country"}],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Sales & Marketing","E-commerce Platforms"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-11T15:06:38Z"}],"visa":[],"liveness":{"score":7,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.247,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":96,"expected_fill_days":34,"reasons":["conf:3","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:"],"computed_at":"2026-11-03T05:54:40Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/catch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/catch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-11-03T15:38:41Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler_verified","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":21756,"day_limit":null,"remaining_today":null,"minute_limit":300,"resets_at":"2026-11-04T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":449708},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=449708"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Fcatch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Fcatch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Fcatch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/catch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Fcatch-creation-llc-video-editor-direct-response-ads"}],"agent":{"mcp":"https://alion.io/mcp/jobs","mcp_open":"https://alion.io/mcp/open","next":[{"tool":"get_job","arguments":{"id":748855}},{"tool":"search_jobs","arguments":{"company":"catchcreation.com","detail":"compact"}},{"tool":"match_people","arguments":{"job_id":748855},"note":"people open to offers who fit this vacancy"}],"note":"The same data through MCP tools: https://alion.io/mcp/open needs no sign-in (compact searches, postings, people); https://alion.io/mcp with an Alion account has everything.
