• Stay up-to-date on industry trends, competitor content, and best practices.

• 5-8+ years of experience in content marketing, preferably in B2B SaaS or technology
• Exceptional writing, editing, and storytelling skills
• Experience creating content for technical and business audiences
• Strong understanding on technology topics
• Willingness to experiment and push the envelope with AI, but also know a human needs to be behind all content
