• Conduct in-depth research on materials, pricing considerations, product performance, and industry topics to inform content development.
• Help build and organize a working knowledge base of technical content and expert-informed insights for future content use.
• Use AI-enabled writing tools thoughtfully as part of the content process while maintaining strong editorial standards and a human, brand-aligned voice.
• Ensure all content aligns with established voice, tone, and style guidelines.
• Manage multiple assignments and deadlines in a fast-paced, collaborative environment.

• Experience turning long-form content into supporting web copy, FAQs, or other optimization-focused formats.

Work Environment:

• 40 hours per week.
• Minnesota-based candidates required.
• Hybrid preferred, with an ideal schedule of up to 3 days per week onsite in Bayport; however, flexibility is available for the right candidate (candidates must be in the metro area)
• For metro-area candidates, occasional onsite collaboration is strongly preferred so the writer can engage with materials and the broader team.
