Senior UX Writer
We are Actively Looking for UX Writers...
We need to fill multiple, immediate assignments for onsite, full-time work in San Francisco, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and other venues in the SF Bay Area.
Responsibilities and Duties
As a UX writer assigned to work onsite with our client’s engineering team, you will develop and release UX artifacts in a fast-paced, collaborative environment. You will work closely with world-class software developers and designers to help define and build next-generation user experiences.
Successful candidates, once placed on our client’s team, will:
- Write simple, clear, smart interface copy for our client’s mobile apps.
- Work closely with the Product Design team to create intuitive, resonant experiences for the customers who use these apps around the world.
- Write clear, concise text that enables the UI for the app to fade away and provide a simple, intuitive user experience. Relying upon research to revise and validate your words, you will collaborate with visual designers, engineers, and product managers, using meticulously crafted language to help customers achieve their goals.
Qualifications and Skills
You must have demonstrable UX writing experience. Your resume and samples must include:
- 5+ years of writing excellent writing, emphasizing efficient use of language
- Portfolio samples that demonstrate your skill as a UX writer on mobile apps (or other interactive software teams)
- Annotated screenshots highlighting the text you wrote
- Experience working on fast-moving, interactive software product development teams, ideally mobile apps on iOS and Android platforms
Be ready to discuss the nature of the relationships you cultivated to make your contributions, and how you participated in the software development process.
You may be asked to complete a short but relevant writing test.
Former journalists (headline writers, copy editors) with experience working on software products are encouraged to apply.
Principals only please, no recruiters.
