What you'll do:- Deliver high quality writing and copy that creates a high-quality product experience
- Create and own the systems of language that span our full product experience - everything from naming new products down to calls to action, nouns, verbs, and single-sentence micro-copy on a tooltip
- Work to understand the retail data landscape, and deliver product experiences that reflect conventional, industry-standard language and terminology in a sensible, easy to understand package
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional partners in Product Design, User Research, Product Management, Product and Brand Marketing, Data Science, and beyond

What you bring:- A portfolio showcasing shipped content design, strategy, and copywriting work, preferably for high profile, high complexity brands and product.

- Outstanding writing and editing skills, with proven ability to craft copy and messaging that reflects market convention while respecting brand tone and voice

- Expertise in collaborative, co-design methodologies. You're comfortable designing and facilitating workshops and working sessions that cut through ambiguity, and align opposing points of view with designers and non-designer audiences.
- Truly entrepreneurial, you navigate teams, organizations, and product spaces with genuine curiosity, and bias toward taking action without waiting to be asked
- You're excited about hypergrowth. You've built or led teams and initiatives in rapid growth environments, and the prospect of our organization doubling its size in 12 months doesn't terrify you (completely, at least)
- Minimum of 6 years experience in content design and strategy for marketing or product
