The Role

We’re looking for a Performance Content Creator & Video Editor to join our growing team. This is a hands-on, performance-driven role: you’ll concept, shoot, edit, and publish content designed to drive results in paid social channels (Instagram, TikTok, and beyond).

You’ll be responsible for producing thumb-stopping, UGC-style videos that not only capture attention but also convert. That means testing new formats, iterating based on performance data, and collaborating closely with our Creative Strategist, Head of Growth, and Organic Social teams to ensure every piece of content supports our acquisition and growth goals.

You’ll need to be comfortable both on-camera and behind the camera: hosting, demonstrating, or storytelling, as well as directing and producing shoots.

This role will be based in our NYC office.

What You’ll Do

• Create high-performing video content specifically for paid social campaigns (Instagram, TikTok, Meta Ads, etc.)
  
• Shoot and edit UGC-style, mobile-first content designed to drive engagement, clicks, and conversions
  
• Test variations in creative (hooks, messaging, pacing, captions) to identify winning formats and maximize performance
  
• Be comfortable on-camera for product demos, taste tests, lifestyle content, and brand storytelling
  
• Direct, shoot, and produce content — including sourcing talent, setting up shoots, and managing production logistics
  
• Edit video assets for multiple placements, ensuring optimization for each platform (aspect ratio, length, captions, file specs)
  
• Collaborate with Growth, Creative Strategy, and Organic Social to align content with campaign objectives and brand voice
  
• Maintain an organized asset library for efficient iteration and re-use of high-performing creative
  
• Monitor campaign results, learn from performance data, and evolve content strategies accordingly

What You Bring

• 3–5+ years of experience creating and editing video content, ideally for paid social
  
• Proven track record of producing UGC-style, mobile-first creative that performs on TikTok, Instagram, or Meta ads
  
• On-camera confidence paired with strong behind-the-camera production skills
  
• Mastery of editing software (Premiere, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve) and familiarity with motion graphics tools (After Effects or similar)
  
• Deep understanding of what drives performance in paid social (hooks, retention, CTAs, audience resonance)
  
• Ability to rapidly test and iterate content based on data and performance feedback
  
• Highly organized, collaborative, and detail-oriented — with a love for storytelling and creativity
  
• A genuine passion for coffee

Bonus Points

• Experience working with food, beverage, or lifestyle brands
  
• Skills in scripting, storyboarding, or performance copywriting for social ads
  
• Basic motion graphics/animation chops
  
• Familiarity with performance metrics, paid social dashboards, and creative testing frameworks

What We Offer

• Competitive salary and benefits (health, dental, vision, 401k, etc.)
  
• Hybrid work model (3 days/week in NYC office)
  
• Opportunity to directly impact Cometeer’s growth by shaping the creative that drives our performance marketing engine
  
• A coffee-obsessed, collaborative team culture
  
• Endless supply of the best coffee on Earth

How to Apply

Send us your resume and a portfolio/showreel of paid social content you’ve created or edited. Be sure to include examples of UGC-style videos, ads that drove measurable results, and any projects where you’ve been both behind and in front of the camera.
