Video Editor (AI,Short-form social, paid ads, UGC)

About LumiMedsLumiMeds is a fast-growing U.S.-based telehealth startup focused on weight management and long-term metabolic health. We are building the next generation of e-commerce and clinical infrastructure from the ground up.As an early-stage company, we move quickly, operate with limited layers, and expect high ownership from every team member. There is no bureaucracy here — decisions happen fast, priorities evolve, and builders thrive.We are a remote-first, globally distributed team that values clarity, accountability, and people who take initiative rather than wait for direction.About the RoleLumiMeds is hiring a video editor to cut short-form video across three streams: educational content from our licensed healthcare creators, UGC from real customers and paid creators, and paid social ads. You'll take a clinician's 90-second explanation of how GLP-1s work and make it land. You'll turn a customer's iPhone testimonial into a Meta ad that converts. On spec, on time, and on the right side of compliance.This is not a generalist editing role. You'll be cutting healthcare content in a tightly regulated category (compounded medications, metabolic health, HRT). Every cut, every overlay, every text card has to be both watchable and compliant. Paid ads in this space get extra scrutiny from Meta, TikTok, and the FTC, so you'll work closely with our social media manager, healthcare creators, and compliance reviewer to make sure everything ships clean.The right person is fast, opinionated about what makes short-form work, and fluent with modern AI editing tools. You're also detail-oriented enough to catch when a stray B-roll clip, an AI voiceover, or a misplaced caption could create a compliance problem. No healthcare background required (we'll train you), but you do need to care about getting it right.What You'll DoEducational content (organic)Edit 12–16 short-form educational videos per month (15–90 seconds) from self-shot creator footage for Instagram Reels and TikTokAdd captions, lower thirds, callouts, on-screen text, and B-roll where it strengthens the messagePaid adsCut 8–15 paid ad variations per month for Meta, TikTok, and YouTube: hook-led, conversion-focused, built for testingProduce multiple variants of each concept (different hooks, CTAs, and first-3-second openers) so the media team can run proper creative testsIterate quickly on winning ads: recut hooks, swap B-roll, refresh creative when fatigue sets inUGCEdit UGC submissions from real customers and paid UGC creators into polished short-form content that still feels native and authentic (not over-produced)Stitch multi-clip UGC into cohesive narratives (problem, product, result framing, within compliance bounds)Across all streamsUse AI tools strategically to speed up production (auto-captioning, transcript-based editing, B-roll generation, voice cleanup) without letting AI shortcuts compromise accuracy or complianceApply LumiMeds brand standards consistently: fonts, colors, logo placement, end cards, disclosure formattingImplement compliance reviewer feedback on cuts and revisions, sometimes across multiple roundsMaintain organized project files and an archive of raw footage, approved B-roll, finished cuts, and ad variant treesStay current on what's working on Reels, TikTok, and paid social in the health and wellness spaceWhat You Won't DoYou will NOT write scripts or determine clinical content — that comes from our licensed creators and the marketing teamYou will NOT add efficacy claims, weight-loss promises, or outcome language in captions, on-screen text, or ad copyYou will NOT use AI to generate fake clinician footage, deepfake any creator or customer, clone voices, or fabricate B-roll that misrepresents what's being describedYou will NOT use before/after imagery, testimonial framings, or comparisons to branded products (Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound, Mounjaro)You will NOT upload, publish, or push final files live to ad accounts — final files go to the social media manager and media buyerWhat We're Looking ForRequired2+ years editing short-form vertical video for social.
