About the role
We run paid user-acquisition campaigns for a consumer AI app, primarily on Instagram/Meta, TikTok, and X (Twitter). You’ll own creative production end to end: fully AI-generated, UGC-style video ads built with your own AI stack plus After Effects, working directly with our performance-marketing lead. This is a high-volume production role. Once ramped up, the pace is 2+ new concepts per day, 5+ variations per concept, and 100+ finished creatives per week — sustainable only with an AI-first pipeline, which we expect you to build and keep improving. Remote; Europe-friendly time zones. Language for creatives: English. Full-time contract engagement; initial ~3 months with extension based on results; start ASAP. Include your expected monthly rate in your application.
Responsibilities
- Produce creatives for paid social channels (Instagram/Meta, TikTok, X): motion, statics, UGC edits, hooks and test variations.
- Work from written briefs and deliver on format and on deadline.
- Propose your own concepts, hooks and references, and take part in creative brainstorms.
- Build creatives with AI tools: generated video and images, voice, avatars, lipsync, upscaling, inpainting, combined with After Effects work.
- Iterate based on ad performance: produce new variations of winning creatives and drop the ones that don’t work.
- Hit the volume targets above without letting quality slip.
Requirements
- 3+ years in motion design, with strong After Effects skills: animation, timing, easing, transitions, kinetic typography, compositing.
- A showreel or portfolio that demonstrates this level of motion work.
- Photoreal AI people: the creators you generate must be indistinguishable from a real person filming on a phone — no “plasticine doll” look.
- Experience producing marketing creatives, preferably in a company with significant paid media budgets.
- You should understand how an ad creative works: the first two seconds, what affects CTR and retention, how creative testing is run.
- Deep, current knowledge of AI tools for image and video generation, voice, avatars and upscaling.
- You should have your own working stack and be able to produce high-quality material without a shoot.
- Ability to work to a detailed brief, understand the task quickly and ask the right questions early.
- Strong fundamentals: composition, editing, rhythm, sound, colour.
- Ability to keep quality consistent at the volumes above.
- Nice to have Premiere or DaVinci, Figma, Photoshop, Blender or Cinema 4D.
- Sound design; copywriting for hooks and captions.
- Experience with UGC and creator-style content.
- Experience reading ad performance dashboards.
Hiring process
- Apply with your CV, showreel/portfolio, and 1–2 examples of AI-generated video you have made (listing the tools used).
- Shortlisted candidates receive a paid test task — see below.
- Interview with our performance-marketing lead.
- Offer. We’re looking to start as soon as possible.
Test task (paid, for shortlisted candidates)
- Produce a fully AI-generated UGC video in English, 5–10 seconds, vertical (9:16). No filming: the person on screen, the voice and the footage should all be generated.
- The goal is maximum realism — it should be indistinguishable from a real creator filming on a phone.
- Use this script as written: “My mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.”
- We assess how believable the result is: the avatar, lipsync, voice, camera behaviour, lighting, framing and edit. You can add any motion or text treatment on top of it.
- Tell us which tools you used.
- The test is paid regardless of outcome.
