Direct Response Video Editor for Meta Ads — Hydrogen Water Bottle (HydroWave)

Posted last month

Worldwide

Summary

We're HydroWave, a fast-growing health & wellness brand selling a hydrogen water bottle. We're scaling hard on Meta and need a video editor who lives and breathes direct response creatives — someone who can pump out high-volume, high-converting ad variations without sacrificing quality. This isn't a "make it look pretty" role. We need someone who understands why a hook works, how to structure a creative that stops the scroll, and how to test angles fast. What you'll be doing: Editing short-form direct response video ads for Meta (Facebook/Instagram feed, Reels, Stories) Producing a high volume of variations — different hooks, angles, formats, and CTAs for testing Cutting UGC, talking-head, problem/solution, and benefit-driven creatives Using AI tools to speed up production and scale output (AI avatars, AI b-roll, scripting support) Iterating quickly based on performance data and feedback Must-haves: Proven experience editing direct response creatives (DTC / e-commerce ads, not brand films) Strong understanding of hooks, retention, pacing, and conversion-focused storytelling Hands-on experience with HeyGen (AI avatars/spokespeople), Higgsfield (AI video/motion), and Claude (scripting, ideation, copy) Ability to deliver both quality and quantity — we're running a lot of tests Familiarity with Meta ad specs, formats, and what performs on the platform Fast turnaround and reliable communication To apply, you MUST include: A portfolio or reel of past direct response / Meta ad work (this is non-negotiable — applications without examples will be ignored) A short note on which AI tools you use and how you use them in your workflow Your typical turnaround time and how many creatives you can produce per week If you can prove you've made ads that actually convert and you know how to use AI to scale output, we want to talk.
