What you’ll do

Improve products through clear, compelling, and user-centered content: Collaborate with product designers to develop user stories and flows, create information architectures, and pair the right visual components with the right copy.

Advocate for the user: Partner with UX research, product managers, and product designers to gather user insights to inform the design process and ensure that the user’s needs, opinions, behaviors, and motivations are represented in content strategies and other project documentation.

Shape our design system: Help raise the bar for clarity and consistency in all product content, by further developing our content design guidelines as part of our wider foundational design system.

Strengthen our brand: Work closely with our marketing team to make sure the brand’s voice and tone is consistent throughout product and marketing content. Balance representing the brand with representing the user in your copy.

Communicate and collaborate: Present your work with a focus on storytelling, articulating insights from UX research and framing your decisions with data-backed rationales. Engage in regular, open conversation within cross-functional teams to build trust in and respect for our work.

Test, execute, and iterate: Help deliver products at every stage of the design process, beyond just handing off copy documents. Work closely with the research, product, and data teams to determine the performance of your work so you can iterate and improve product content.
