Job description

Job Description
Department: Member Experience
Engagement Type: 1099 Contract
Duration: 24 weeks (6 months) with an expected commitment of 40-60 hours per week.
Rate: $45 - 60/ hr, depending on experience
Location: Fully Remote but would be expected to work East Coast business hours.
For Application: Portfolio submission required.
Preferred Skill: Fluent or professional-level proficiency in Spanish (written), with demonstrated experience writing or editing consumer-facing content in Spanish
A bit about this role:
Devoted Health's Member Experience Team is seeking a meticulous QA editor and adaptable copywriter to review, refine, and quality-check content across member-facing and internal channels. This isn't basic proofing - it's a heavy QA function requiring a sharp eye for detail, a deep understanding of grammar and style, and a commitment to consistency, compliance, and alignment across every deliverable. You'll ensure content is accurate, on-brand, and written in plain language our members can understand - across SMS, email, portal notifications, letters, and knowledge base articles. You'll also work alongside AI tools and agents to streamline content workflows, and partner with our in-house content strategists to support content needs for member communications.
Responsibilities and Impact will include:
  • Proofread and QA content across diverse channels, including SMS, email, portal, letters, print collateral, call scripting, and internal communication tools.
  • Write, review, and maintain copy for the internal knowledge base, ensuring content accuracy, consistency, and adherence to established standards.
  • Engage and interact with AI agents to optimize content workflows and assist with internal knowledge management.
  • Write and revise clear, compelling copy - including customer service and knowledge-transfer/instructional content.
  • Proof content, maintaining accuracy and tone
  • Edit and simplify complex, industry-specific content into plain language that's clear, accessible, and engaging - with an eye for spotting inconsistencies and misalignment across related deliverables.
  • Embrace feedback and revisions as opportunities to refine and enhance writing quality.
  • Work proactively and efficiently in a fast-paced, high-volume environment, meeting tight deadlines while maintaining a high standard of quality.

Required skills and experience:
Note: Portfolio submission required.
  • 4-8 years of experience as a proofreader/copy editor, with some background in copywriting - ideally within an agency or corporate setting
  • Exceptional attention to detail with a meticulous approach to editing and content quality
  • Skilled at distilling complex concepts into clear, concise, and engaging language
  • Self-motivated and capable of working independently, while also thriving in collaborative team environments
  • Quick learner with strong research skills and a proactive attitude-eager to ask questions and contribute wherever needed
  • Strong organizational and communication skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines
  • Healthcare industry experience is a plus, but not required-curiosity and a drive to learn are essential
  • This position is remote, but candidate must work on a schedule that aligns with East Coast hours

Preferred skills and experience:
  • Fluent or professional-level proficiency in Spanish (written), with demonstrated experience writing or editing consumer-facing content in Spanish
