About The Position

Mirage is an AI-native video platform that intelligently orchestrates production and editing through natural language. Our models leverage contextual awareness to execute the same creative decisions a professional editor would — dramatically improving productivity for experienced teams, while making video creation accessible to anyone. We’re an interdisciplinary team addressing some of the most difficult technical and creative challenges in generative media. As an early member of our team, you’ll tackle foundational problems that remain largely unsolved across the industry, driving an outsized impact on the future of creative expression.

We are hiring a talented and experienced Video Editor to create high-performing video content across our social platforms and paid channels. This role will primarily focus on producing performance marketing ad creative—direct-response video ads designed to drive acquisition and conversion—alongside brand awareness content and support for key moments like product launches. You’ll work across both short-form (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) and long-form content (YouTube, LinkedIn), playing a pivotal role in shaping our visual storytelling and ensuring every piece of content is optimized for engagement, impact, and results.

Our ideal candidate is an expert in pacing, format, and sound design, with a keen eye for detail and a strong understanding of what makes people stop scrolling and take action. You have experience sourcing footage/images, vetting music, and integrating motion graphics to create compelling narratives. You thrive in a fast-paced, creative environment, are deeply attuned to internet culture and social media trends, and understand how creative choices directly impact ad performance metrics.

Requirements

• Prior experience as a video editor in an agency, in-house team, or post-production studio—with meaningful exposure to performance marketing or direct-response ad creative
• Strong understanding of visual & interactive design, including motion, typography, layout, and color
• Expertise in digital video editing tools for both 2D & 3D projects (Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Photoshop, Illustrator, and Figma)
• Highly proficient in editing both short-form and long-form content for social media platforms and advertising campaigns
• Deep understanding of internet culture, social trends, and audience engagement strategies
• Comfort working with performance data and an intuition for how creative decisions (hooks, pacing, CTAs) impact ad metrics
• Passionate about the creator economy and the evolving landscape of video content

Responsibilities
