AI Video Editor (Performance Creative)

Company: RYER

Website: ryer.de

Engagement: Full-time

Location: Remote

Company Context

RYER is a founder-led DTC cleaning brand selling across Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

• Eight-figure brand
• More than €15M in revenue so far in 2026
• Physical products (wet vacuums and steam cleaners)
• Growth driven by Meta video ads

This is a performance-driven environment. Every ad is judged by results.

What This Role Actually Is

This is an execution-first role for an AI video editor who treats editing as a performance discipline, not an art project. Your job is to turn scripts, briefings, AI-generated visuals and footage into high-converting Meta ads, consistently and predictably.

Think editing engineer, not «creative director».

Core Responsibilities

• Primary Output: Finished, performance-ready video ads for Meta (Facebook/Instagram). No YouTube long-form.
• Inputs: Scripts and briefings provided by our team
• Optimization: Hooks, storytelling, pacing, clarity
• AI Execution: Create AI visuals and combine them with sharp editing, voice and music
• Iteration: Apply feedback quickly, including technical fixes and creative adjustments
• Quality: Accurate product shots, clean synced sound, no visible AI errors

This role rewards people who ship reliably, week after week.

Strategic Expansion: Your Own Ideas & Productions

You start by turning our scripts and briefings into high-quality ads. But you won’t be limited to executing our ideas forever.

Once you consistently deliver high-quality work, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Pitch your own ad ideas, hooks and storylines.
• Develop those ideas into original scripts and creatives.
• Plan and run your own productions, including creating new footage rather than only editing material we provide.
• Own the creative process from your initial idea through production to the finished ad.

Your own ideas and productions become part of the role once you’ve shown that you can deliver consistently. Creative freedom is earned through the quality of your work.

Who This Role Is For

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Have edited short-form performance ads, ideally for e-commerce/DTC brands
• Work hands-on with AI video tools
• Default to execution instead of explanation
• Take feedback as signal, not ego damage
• Care about output, not optics
• Communicate clearly in English

Who This Role Is Not For

This will not work if you:

• Mainly edit YouTube long-form or vlogs
• Need «inspiration» to perform
• Struggle with revisions or tight feedback loops
• Want creative freedom before earning trust
• Are inconsistent week to week
