RankSector

About Us

RankSector is an AI-powered growth platform that handles content creation, distribution, and organic reach for 500+ businesses. Small, fast-moving team based in Estonia. No middle management, no bureaucracy.

The Mission

Own short-form video execution for RankSector. Take briefs, AI-generated base footage, and raw assets, then ship polished TikToks, Reels, and Shorts that perform. You are accountable for daily output, quality, and consistency.

Why This Role Exists

We have already built the strategy, the hooks, the creative direction, and the AI tooling that produces base footage. What we need is someone who turns those inputs into finished videos every working day, on time, without supervision.

Editing fast isn't the bar. Editing fast with taste is. Anyone can cut clips together. We need someone who understands why a hook lands at 0.4 seconds vs 0.8, why caption timing changes retention, and why some sounds work this month and not next.

The value of this role isn't any single skill. It's full ownership of the daily output: polished videos shipped every weekday, with no chasing.

What You'll Own

1. Daily Edit Output (Primary)

Ship 2+ polished short-form videos per day, under an hour of edit time per video once you have the brief and assets. Output is split between organic content (TikTok, Reels, Shorts) and paid social creative (Meta and TikTok ads). You'll handle:

• Clip cutting and pacing
• Captions and text overlays
• Sound selection and audio mixing
• Color grading
• Animations and motion graphics
• Final QC and platform-spec exports (organic and paid)

2. AI Video Workflow

Use our internal AI video generation tools to produce base footage, then add the finishing layer that makes content feel human and scroll-stopping. As new AI platforms launch (Runway, Pika, HeyGen, Sora, Kling, whatever comes next), test them, learn them, and fold the useful ones into your workflow without being asked.

3. Creative Feedback Loop

When a format isn't performing, flag it. When a hook style is fatiguing, say so. We expect specific observations, not vague vibes. You will see the analytics on what you ship and you're expected to feed pattern recognition back into the team.

4. Operations

Log work, keep project files organized, communicate status. The team should never have to ask where something stands.

What We Provide

• Daily briefs from the content team (hooks, scripts, structure, references)
• AI-generated base footage and a growing raw asset library
• Brand assets, templates, fonts, licensed sound library
• Direct line to the founder for fast approvals and creative pivots
• Performance data on every video you ship

How We Work

• Practice Humility: coachable, curious, no ego
• Own the Outcome: ship on time, no chasing required
• Mind the Details: the difference between 50k views and 5M is in the details
• Foster Honest Dialogue: if creative isn't working, say it
• Share Your Perspective: propose new formats, test ideas
• Show Genuine Respect: with teammates, with feedback, with the work

What "Good" Looks Like

We evaluate you on output quality and consistency, not hours logged. What we care about most:

• Daily output: 2+ polished videos shipped on weekdays, briefed by EOD
• Turnaround: under 1 hour of edit time per video once brief and assets are ready
• Hook execution: first 3 seconds optimized, captions timed to spoken word, no dead frames
• Format awareness: you know what is working on TikTok this month, not last year
• Communication: status visible without anyone asking

Baseline activity expectations (table stakes, not differentiators):

• 10+ videos shipped per week
• Same-day response on creative feedback
• Project files organized, labeled, and versioned
• Weekly summary: what shipped, what performed, what you'd test next

These volumes are easy to hit with our tooling and brief flow. Hitting them isn't impressive. Falling short is disqualifying.

Interview Process

Apply → Portfolio Review → Interview → Paid Trial → Full-Time Start

• Apply: Submit your application via Djinni.
• Portfolio Review: We watch your work. If the edits don't show taste, the process ends here.
• Interview: 30-minute call to discuss your workflow, AI tooling experience, and how you handle creative feedback.
• Paid Trial (5 business days): You'll edit real videos with our briefs, footage, and tooling. We evaluate quality, speed, and how you handle direction.
• Full-Time Start: If the trial goes well, you move straight into the full contract.

Paid Trial (5 Business Days)

You'll get full access to briefs, AI tooling, the asset library, and direct contact with the content team.

This isn't a "get to know each other" week. We expect 10 finished, ready-to-publish videos by Day 5, with at least 2 shipped to live channels and tested. Detailed quality criteria are shared before the trial starts so there are no surprises, but the bar is high. If you need ramp-up time to start producing, this isn't the right fit.

Requirements

• Native feel for short-form video (TikTok, Reels, Shorts), not just technical editing chops
• Expert in CapCut (Premiere, After Effects, or DaVinci also fine)
• Portfolio of short-form edits you personally cut, with links to live posts. If you can't show your own work, don't apply.
• Strong follow-through. If we have to chase you, this isn't the role.
• Comfortable receiving direct creative feedback and adjusting fast
• English fluent enough to read briefs, respond in writing, and join short calls

Bonus

• Hands-on experience with AI video tools (Runway, Pika, HeyGen, Sora, Kling, or similar)
• Past work in an agency or content team with high-volume, fast-turnaround expectations
• Motion graphics or animation skills beyond basic text overlays
• Past experience editing for SaaS, app, or DTC brands

Do Not Apply If

• You're a beginner looking for training. We need you editing on day one.
• You struggle with direct creative feedback or want to stay in your comfort zone.
• You wait around to be told what to do next.
• You can't show real edits you personally produced.

Compensation

• Base: $2,000-$2,800/month (full-time contract), based on experience and demonstrated taste + commission
• Performance commission: starts in month 3, tied to the performance of paid ads you edit (CTR, CPI, ROAS), paid monthly on top of base
• Remote, hours flexible but aligned to European business time

This role is designed to grow into Lead Video Editor or Head of Content Production if you build a repeatable output engine.

About RankSector

RankSector is an AI-powered growth platform that puts content creation, distribution, and organic reach on autopilot. Customers connect their site and RankSector handles everything end to end: research, writing, publishing, and partnerships that get content seen. 

We're a small, fast-moving team based in Estonia 🇪🇪, fully remote, no middle management, no bureaucracy. You'll work directly with the founder and a tight creative team where decisions happen in hours, not weeks.

The Role

You own the full creative strategy loop for paid social ads (Meta, TikTok). You decide what gets made and why, then prove it with data.

Your core loop:

• Research winning ads, competitor creative, and performance trends.
• Pick angles worth testing.
• Write detailed creative briefs: scripts, hooks, visual direction, talent notes, reference ads, and specific creative notes.
• Hand off to the editor, who produces the assets.
• Review every asset before it goes live. Give specific feedback, not vibes.
• Set up campaigns and A/B tests in the ad platform.
• Read performance data. Decide what to iterate, scale, or kill.
• Write iteration briefs on winners. One good angle can spawn 10+ rounds of variations.

You work directly with one video/image editor who ships daily. You're not editing. You're the person who decides what gets made, writes the brief that makes it happen, and reads the data that tells you what to do next.

What a Typical Week Looks Like

• Monday: Review last week's campaign performance. Identify winners and losers. Plan the week's briefs.
• Tuesday–Thursday: Write briefs, review editor output, give specific feedback, set up campaigns.
• Friday: Final reviews, launch new tests.

You write 5–8 briefs per week (mix of new angles and iterations on winners). You review all editor submissions within 24 hours. Campaigns go live within 24 hours of asset approval. You send a weekly summary: what launched, what won, what you're testing next, what you're killing.

What We Provide

• A reliable editor who ships 2+ polished videos per day without chasing.
• AI video and image generation tools already built into the workflow.
• Brand assets, templates, fonts, and a growing raw asset library.
• Direct line to the founder for fast approvals and creative pivots.
• Full access to ad platform data and campaign analytics.
• Project management setup with clear statuses, task templates, and sprint structure.

How We Work

• Practice Humility: coachable, curious, no ego.
• Own the Outcome: if the ads aren't performing, that's your problem to solve, not someone else's.
• Mind the Details: the difference between a €40 CPA and a €15 CPA lives in the creative details.
• Foster Honest Dialogue: if an angle is dead, say it. If the editor needs to level up somewhere, say that too.
• Share Your Perspective: propose new formats, test unconventional ideas, challenge assumptions with data.
• Show Genuine Respect: with teammates, with feedback, with the work.

What "Good" Looks Like

We evaluate you on creative performance and decision quality, not hours logged.

• You can look at a product and generate 5 testable angles before lunch.
• Your briefs are detailed enough that the editor executes without questions.
• You review assets same-day with specific, actionable feedback ("cut 0.3s from the intro, move the text overlay to frame 2," not "make it better").
• You read campaign data and immediately know what to test next.
• You don't get attached to ideas that the data says aren't working.
• Winners get iterated. Losers get killed fast. You don't let ego slow down either decision.

Requirements

• 2+ years running creative strategy for paid social (Meta, TikTok, or both).
• Portfolio of ad angles you personally conceived, briefed, and launched, with performance results.
• Understanding of direct response: hooks, angles, offers, funnels, landing pages.
• You know what's working on TikTok and Meta right now, not 6 months ago.
• Can write detailed creative briefs that leave nothing to interpretation.
• Data-literate: you pull campaign numbers, read them correctly, and make decisions fast.
• Strong follow-through. We don't chase for reviews or campaign setups.
• English B2+ (writing briefs, giving feedback, short calls).

Nice to Have

• Experience with AI creative tools (Midjourney, Runway, Kling, or similar).
• DTC, supplements, skincare, health/wellness, or app marketing background.
• Landing page copywriting skills.
• Experience managing editors or small creative pods.
• Familiarity with ClickUp, Frame.io, or similar project management and review tools.

Don't Apply If

• You can't show ads you personally strategized with real performance results.
• You need someone to tell you what angle to test next.
• You think "creative strategy" means choosing stock photos and writing generic ad copy.
• You struggle with direct creative feedback or avoid making hard calls on killing underperforming work.
• You're a beginner looking for training. We need you writing briefs and reviewing assets from day one.

Compensation

• $2,000–$3,500/month base (depending on experience and demonstrated results).
• Performance bonus from month 3: tied to ad performance metrics (CPA improvement, ROAS, winning rate on new angles), paid monthly on top of base.
• Fully remote, flexible hours aligned to EU business time.
• Growth path: this role is designed to grow into Head of Creative or Head of Growth as we scale the paid ads operation. That path opens when you build a repeatable creative engine that consistently finds winning angles.

Hiring Process

1. Apply on Djinni. We review your profile.
2. Portfolio share. We'll ask for ads you came up with, the briefs behind them, and what the numbers said after launch.
3. Call (30 min). We get to know each other, talk through your experience, and how you think about creative.
4. Paid trial (5 business days). You work with our editor, our tools, and real products. Briefs written, assets reviewed, campaigns live by Day 5. If you need ramp-up time to start producing, this isn't the right fit.
5. Full-time start. Trial goes well, you move straight into the full contract.
