We’re looking for a Senior Content Strategist to develop messaging systems for new and evolving products, services, and initiatives and translate them into scalable, AI‑enabled creative workflows.
This role sits at the intersection of brand strategy, creative development, and applied AI. You’ll define names, taglines, value propositions, and narrative frameworks that shape how we show up across channels — and help operationalize that thinking into repeatable systems that enable faster, more consistent content creation.
You should be a strong strategic thinker and editor first, with experience using generative AI to accelerate ideation, explore messaging, and support content development. You don’t need to have built complex AI systems from scratch, but you should be comfortable structuring your thinking and evolution into scalable workflows over time.
You’ll also play a key role in mentoring and enabling other writers, helping the team adopt AI‑assisted workflows while maintaining a high bar for quality and brand integrity.
What You’ll Do: Messaging Architecture & Strategy
Develop messaging toolkits for new products, services, and campaigns
Define naming systems, taglines, value propositions, and positioning frameworks
Create clear, modular messaging structures that can scale across channels
Use generative AI to accelerate ideation, explore message territories, and refine positioning
Content Systems & AI Workflow Development
Translate messaging frameworks into structured prompts, templates, and early‑stage AI workflows
Build and iterate on reusable systems that support consistent, on‑brand content generation
Partner with creative and channel teams to ensure systems are practical and usable
Continuously refine workflows based on output quality and team feedback
AI‑Assisted Creative Development
Use AI tools to rapidly explore creative directions and variations
Use synthetic AI testing and other rapid evaluation methods to refine messaging
Generate and refine copy across key channels (e.g., PDP, email, paid social)
Apply strong editorial judgment to bring AI‑assisted outputs to final quality
Editorial Oversight & Team Enablement
Review and refine both AI‑generated and human‑written copy to ensure brand alignment and clarity
Mentor junior writers and cross‑functional partners on how to effectively use messaging systems and AI tools
Establish best practices and guardrails for AI‑assisted content creation
Help build team confidence and fluency in using AI to support creative work
Cross‑Functional Partnership
Collaborate with Product, Marketing, and Design to align messaging with business objectives
Ensure messaging translates effectively across channels and formats
Partner with research or product teams for real‑user validation when applicable
What Success Looks Like
Messaging systems are clear, differentiated, and easy to apply across teams
AI‑assisted workflows improve speed and consistency without sacrificing quality
Writers and partners are confidently using messaging systems and AI tools
Creative output — whether human‑ or AI‑assisted — remains high‑quality and on‑brand
Content systems evolve and improve over time based on real‑world use
What You’ll Need: Experience
6–10 years of experience in brand, product, or integrated copywriting
Proven experience developing messaging frameworks, naming, or positioning systems
Strong portfolio demonstrating both conceptual thinking and execution
Skills
Deep understanding of brand voice systems and messaging architecture
Ability to distill complex offerings into clear, differentiated messaging
Experience using generative AI tools to support creative development, ideation, and iteration – maintaining brand voice across explorations
Ability to think in systems and translate ideas into repeatable frameworks
Comfort mentoring others and providing clear, actionable feedback
Strong cross‑functional collaboration skills

Experience training or managing junior writers
Familiarity with message testing methodologies or research‑driven iteration
Experience in consumer tech, e‑commerce, or service‑oriented brands
