Performance Video Editor
About Honeydew 👋
Our mission is to ensure that no one in the world has to suffer from a treatable skin concern because of an access issue ever again.
Honeydew is building a platform for hundreds of millions of people globally to access expertise and science-backed skin treatments, including FDA-approved and custom-formulated prescriptions. We've helped 50,000+ patients get life-changing results, we're growing 4x YoY, and we're just getting started. We’re digitally native, scientifically rooted, integrated end-to-end (evaluation + treatments + lab tests), and fueled by a drive to empower every consumer with options that actually work.
Opportunity 📈
We're building a growth team where strong creative drives real results, and this role sits at the center of it.
We're looking for a full-time Video Editor based in New York City (or the surrounding area) who brings the same care to raw UGC as to higher-end cuts, celebrity partnerships, and polished brand work. You understand what makes creative perform on both paid and organic social, with a strong grasp of the hooks, pacing, and storytelling that drive views, retention, and engagement on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. You care about craft without being precious about the format, and you know that great performance creative requires speed, iteration, and volume. Agency experience is a strong plus.
You're the right person if you
Understand performance marketing deeply and know how editing choices can impact hooks, retention, watch time, click-through, and conversion
Can move seamlessly between UGC, creator content, patient stories, dermatologist content, and polished hi-fi footage
Understand organic social and what makes brand content earn views on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube
Stay scrappy, move quickly, take feedback well, and are comfortable iterating on multiple versions of a concept
Have strong creative instincts beyond the timeline — you understand messaging, storytelling, visual hierarchy, sound design, pacing, and platform-native trends
Are curious about AI and actively use new tools to expand what you can create and speed up your workflow
What You'll Do
Performance & Paid Social Editing
Edit performance marketing creative for Meta, TikTok, YouTube, and other paid channels, with a strong focus on hooks, pacing, retention, clarity, and conversion
Turn UGC from paid creator partnerships, patients, and dermatology partners into high-performing ads that feel native rather than overly produced
Build multiple versions, hooks, and iterations from the same source footage + b-roll to support rapid creative testing
Work from creative briefs while bringing your own editorial point of view to strengthen the final execution
Use performance learnings and feedback from the growth team to continuously improve future edits
Organic Social
Edit organic video content for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, balancing brand consistency with native pacing and storytelling
Understand how organic creative differs from paid creative and make editorial decisions that support virality, retention, shares, saves, and engagement
Stay current on social editing styles, formats, trends, hooks, sounds, and emerging platform behaviors without chasing trends that don't fit the brand
Hi-Fi & Brand Content
Edit footage captured by our videographer into polished, premium content used across paid ads, organic channels, brand storytelling, and celebrity partnerships
Confidently handle higher-end post-production, including multicam or interview edits, color, audio, and sound design
Maintain a consistent Honeydew look and feel while adapting the edit to the specific channel, audience, and objective
Be equally comfortable making a creator video feel native and making a high-production shoot feel elevated
Motion, Animation & AI
Create motion graphics and lightweight animation as needed, ideally in Adobe After Effects or similar tools
Use AI tools strategically to achieve animation, visual effects, asset generation, or workflow efficiencies that would otherwise slow down production
