AI Creative Specialist - Performance Ads for eCommerce / DTC

Role Type

  • Remote, Philippines-based
  • Project-based or part-time to start
  • Opportunity to grow into a full-time role for the right person
  • Flexible hours, with some overlap with US Pacific Time preferred

About the Role

We are a US-based team creating paid social ads for eCommerce / DTC brands. We are looking for 2 to 3 creative specialists based in the Philippines who can turn a concept brief into polished static and video ads.

This is not a generic graphic design role. It is also not an on-camera creator role. This is a performance creative role for someone who understands hooks, first frames, pacing, mobile-first design, and how to make ads that are built to be tested.

We are looking for people who are fast, resourceful, self-sufficient, and have strong taste and judgment. The right person does not wait to be told every step. They can take direction, figure things out, communicate clearly, and keep improving their skills as new tools and workflows emerge.

You will work from structured briefs, product assets, reviews, and brand direction. Your job is to turn those inputs into high-quality ad creative using strong design/editing judgment and AI-assisted tools where helpful.


What You Will Do

  • Create static ads and short-form video ads for paid social.
  • Turn concept briefs into finished creative assets.
  • Build ads from product images, lifestyle assets, reviews, b-roll, stock/context footage, and AI-assisted visuals.
  • Storyboard simple video concepts before producing them.
  • Create strong first frames, hooks, text overlays, captions, and CTA frames.
  • Produce multiple variations from the same core idea.
  • Use AI tools to speed up production while keeping the work tasteful and accurate.
  • Edit voiceover-led ads when voiceover is provided or approved.
  • Repurpose real creator/UGC footage when provided.
  • Organize source files and final exports clearly.
  • Communicate quickly when something is unclear, missing, or could be improved.

You Are a Fit If You

  • Have made paid social ads for eCommerce / DTC brands.
  • Understand hooks, first 3 seconds, pacing, and mobile-first creative.
  • Can create both static and video-style ads.
  • Can storyboard before producing a video.
  • Are comfortable using AI creative tools and eager to keep learning new ones.
  • Can work with limited assets and still make strong creative.
  • Are fast without being sloppy.
  • Have good taste and can tell when something feels off.
  • Are resourceful and can solve problems without waiting for every instruction.
  • Communicate clearly in English.
  • Can work independently, hit deadlines, and improve based on feedback.
  • Have a reliable computer and internet setup that can handle video editing, AI creative tools, screen recording, and large creative files.
  • 2-5 years of experience as a Designer, Video Editor, or Motion Artist.
  • Strong creative judgment and understanding of composition, typography, rhythm, and storytelling.
  • Proficient in AI tools: Sora, Runway, Freepik AI Suite, Firefly, Gemini, Stable Diffusion, Leonardo, Flux, Midjourney, Pika, Dream Machine, or similar.
  • Skilled in Adobe Creative Suite and video editing platforms.
  • Proven ability to blend AI outputs with traditional design techniques for professional-grade results.

Nice to Have

  • Experience with apparel, beauty, kids/family, wellness, home, or lifestyle brands.
  • Experience editing voiceover-led ads.
  • Experience editing real UGC, creator footage, or partnership ads.
  • Experience creating multiple ad variations from one concept.
  • Strong working knowledge of AI-assisted creative tools.
