Job description

Job Description: Contract Copy Editor (Remote - US Based)


Join GrapevineAI and help shape the next generation of content creation. 

We partner with fast-growing DTC brands to deliver creator content reaching millions of consumers. As we scale rapidly in the AI + creative space, we’re looking for a Contract Copy Editor to help write winning editorials for our brands.

What is Your Role?

As a Copy Editor, you’ll be responsible for taking AI-assisted drafts and transforming them into polished, publication-ready content. You’ll apply a sharp editorial eye to ensure accuracy, clarity, and tone, while removing any traces of “AI voice.” You’ll fact-check outputs, apply team feedback with precision, and ensure delivered content aligns with brand standards.

You will also be responsible for publishing finalized articles, and collaborating cross-functionally with our Brand Success, Creative Strategy, and Creator Strategy teams. Occasionally, you may support one-off publishing tasks, such as scheduling organic content.

Your role is all about reliability, communication, and attention to detail - making sure our final deliverables always meet the high bar we set for ourselves.

Key Responsibilities Include:

  • Refining AI-generated drafts for grammar, clarity, accuracy, and naturality
  • Eliminating AI “tells” to produce authentic, human-quality copy
  • Fact-checking and implementing team feedback with speed and accuracy
  • Publishing finalized content according to brand guidelines
  • Supporting occasional publishing tasks (i.e. content scheduling in Plannable)
  • Collaborating cross-functionally with Brand Success and Creative/Creator Strategy teams
     

What You’ll Bring:

Content: Execution Expert

  • Strong command of grammar, editing, and style
  • 1-2 years of professional editing, publishing, or content management (preferred)
  • Experience refining AI-generated drafts (preferred)
  • Familiarity with publishing platforms and/or scheduling tools (Plannable a plus).

Business Ownership: Goal Crusher

  • Reliable, deadline-oriented, and accountable
  • Comfortable working in a fast-changing startup environment
  • Efficient without sacrificing editorial quality

Organization & Communication: Exceptional Focus

  • Organized, detail-oriented, and consistent in follow-through
  • Clear, proactive communicator who can take and apply feedback well
  • Strong multitasking abilities in a fast-paced, high-output environment
Rate: This is a contract 1099 role with a budget of $40 per hour.
