Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Own the paid social creative iteration loop across paid channels such as: Meta, TikTok, and Google, etc. Hook variations, CTAs, formats, and overlays based on live performance data.
  • Run a fast test-and-learn cycle. Launch, read the metrics, find what broke, re-cut. Outputting multiple rounds per week.
  • Work directly with the Performance Marketing team to turn ROAS, CPA, and creative fatigue signals into new assets. The data tells you what to build next.
  • Execute post-production for video and static formats with proper platform specs in mind: safe zones, aspect ratios, file sizes, and compression.
  • Build TikTok content that feels native to the platform without losing what makes melin melin.
  • Keep up with platform changes across Meta, TikTok, and Google. Format shifts, algorithm updates, what's actually performing right now. Bring that into weekly decisions.
  • Keep a clean, versioned asset library. The team should always know what's live, what's being tested, and what's been retired.
  • Use Figma for static ad layout, resizing, and file exports alongside video work

Requirements

  • Expert-level Adobe Premiere and After Effects for rapid video editing and motion graphics.
  • Working proficiency in Figma for digital layout and file exports.
  • You can explain a creative decision using hook rate or thumb-stop rate, not just how it looks.
