Job Title: Copy & Content Writer – Brand
Location-Type: Remote (SF/NY preferred)
Start Date Is: ASAP
Duration: 6 month contract (high potential to extend/convert)
Compensation Range: $195/hr
This role is eligible for medical, dental, and vision benefits

Job Description:

We're looking for a senior writer to help build and define a brand voice from scratch. This is the first dedicated brand writer for the team, and the work spans everything from sharp campaign language to rigorous long-form editorial—always with clarity, taste, and intellectual seriousness.

This is not a demand-gen, CRO, or SEO-first role.

What you'll do (day to day)

  • Write across brand touchpoints: campaign concepts & taglines, headlines, ads, web copy, newsletters, decks/presentations, scripts, and print

  • Produce long-form editorial and thought leadership (roughly 800–1,500 words) that advances clear ideas without oversimplifying

  • Develop event naming and experiential/environmental copy (signage, wayfinding language, event systems, booth/activation copy)

  • Translate technical and policy-adjacent topics into accessible writing for mixed audiences (technical non-technical)

  • Partner closely with design to ensure language and visual direction reinforce each other

  • Help establish and maintain brand voice and messaging frameworks

  • Edit and elevate writing produced internally or with external partners

  • Manage multiple projects in an environment where priorities can shift—without sacrificing craft

Must-haves

  • 10 years writing experience in brand writing, editorial, or content design

  • A strong editorial sensibility (you read widely; you care about language; you can distinguish clear writing from merely correct writing)

  • Primarily top-tier editorial publication experience (e.g.,NYT/FT/WSJ/WIRED/Atlantic/Monocle/Kinfolk-type environments). Publication credits are a plus; editorial rigor is required.

  • Portfolio that shows range and quality across formats, including:

    • Short-form brand copy (campaign lines, headlines, ads)

    • Long-form editorial/thought leadership (800–1,500 words)

    • Voice consistency across multiple channels

  • Demonstrated ability to write about complex, technical, or policy-adjacent subjects for non-specialist audiences without flattening the nuance

  • Comfort collaborating with designers, strategists, and senior stakeholders

  • Experience creating or maintaining voice/tone guidelines or messaging frameworks

  • Bachelor's degree

Nice-to-haves

  • Experience writing in or adjacent to AI, technology, research, policy, or mission-driven organizations

  • Experience working with (or within) a creative agency / brand studio

  • Experience with event naming systems, experiential/environmental copy, and brand activations

  • Genuine interest in the societal implications of advanced technology and a bias toward intellectual honesty in communication

 

Strong positive signals

  • Editorial leadership, magazine/newsroom/editorial studio background

  • Thought leadership essays, reported pieces, cultural criticism, op-eds, books/chapters

  • Brand voice work: naming systems, messaging frameworks, campaign lines

  • Tech/policy translation (not just "software copy”)

Strong negative signals 

  • "SEO/CRO/SEM/performance marketing” as primary identity

  • Landing-page conversion specialist / direct response copywriter

  • Pure demand-gen / growth marketing writer with no editorial body of work

  • Portfolios dominated by product pages, nurture streams, ABM sequences
