Role summary:The Content Editor is the team's senior hands-on editorial contributor, writing and editing the company's highest stakes content across thought leadership, developer content, customer stories, and product marketing content. This role pairs closely with the Staff Writer (editing and mentoring their work) and the Managing Editor (executing against the shared calendar), while taking on the pieces that require the most craft, technical fluency, or narrative judgment.
Core responsibilities:- Write and edit flagship content across all editorial streams: executive bylines and thought leadership essays, guides or dev focused explainers, customer case studies, and product launch or feature human-led content
- Edit and strengthen the Staff Writer's drafts with line edits, structural feedback, and voice consistency, functioning as a mentor, not just a reviewer
- Translate raw input (SME interviews, product specs, customer conversations, exec talking points) into polished, publishable stories
- Partner with the Content Strategist to turn strategic briefs into concrete, well-scoped pieces ensuring SEO/AEO value
- Partner with the Managing Editor on prioritization and sequencing, as two team writers covering multiple content types requires triage
- Maintain and evolve the style guide in practice as this role enforces voice/tone at each sentence level
- Fact-check and coordinate technical & legal accuracy review on dev content and customer stories
- Oversee content production workflow from draft to publish
- Ensure consistency in voice, tone, and brand messaging
- Coordinate with writers on revisions and improvements
- Manage editorial calendar execution
Qualifications- 8+ years of experience professional writing/editing experience, ideally split across B2B/technical content and narrative-driven content (case studies, brand storytelling)
- Comfortable interviewing engineers, customers, and executives and turning raw material into a clear narrative
- Portfolio showing range: technical writing, thought leadership, and story-driven work, not just one lane
- Experience working within a style guide and editing others' work, not only producing your own
