Key responsibilities

  • Translate campaign briefs into messaging across various formats including headlines, descriptions, and taglines.

  • Write copy for multiple channels such as landing pages, email, paid social, and performance creative.

  • Script longer-form campaign content like videos and branded content.


Job description

We're looking for a versatile copywriter who can move fluidly between brand storytelling and conversion-driven copy.
You'll take campaign and creative briefs and turn them into compelling language across the entire customer journey - from big campaign ideas and brand storytelling to the copy that ultimately drives someone to act.
The ideal person is part brand storyteller, part direct-response copywriter: someone who can make people feel something and make them do something.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
  • Translate campaign briefs into messaging across H1s, headlines, descriptions, taglines, and campaign copy
  • Write across channels including landing pages, email, paid social, and other performance creative
  • Script longer-form campaign films, founder videos, and branded content
  • Develop hooks, concepts, and messaging angles for performance creative
  • Balance emotional storytelling with persuasion and conversion
  • Partner closely with Brand, Creative, and Growth to evolve how Superpower sounds

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
  • ~3-6 years of copywriting experience
  • A strong portfolio spanning both brand/campaign and performance/conversion work
  • Exceptional at simplifying complex ideas into sharp, memorable language
  • Comfortable writing everything from a three-word headline to a three-minute script

NICE TO HAVE
  • Experience in health, wellness, medical, or other science-heavy categories
  • Agency background with range across clients and tonal registers
  • Long-form performance writing (VSL-style scripts, sales pages)

WHY SUPERPOWER
  • Mission that matters: we catch diseases before they start and change people's lives
  • Radical empowerment: no layers of approval, no waiting for permission - if you see a problem, we reward people that solve them
  • A-players only: small team of exceptional people who actually do the work
  • Founder mode: everyone is an IC here, including leadership. We don't delegate, we build
  • Competitive compensation with equity in a company at the frontier of health and AI
  • Superpower your own health - we live the ethos

The San Francisco, CA base pay range for this role is $125,000 - $130,000 (non-inclusive of equity).
Actual salary will be based on job-related skills, experience, and location. Compensation outside of San Francisco may be adjusted based on employee location. The total compensation package may include benefits, equity-based compensation, and eligibility for a company bonus or variable pay program depending on the role. Your recruiter can share more details during the hiring process.
