About the role
About Flagright:

Flagright is an AI operating system for financial crime compliance used globally by Fortune 500 companies, large banks, fintechs, and fast growing startups. Flagright enables real-time risk detection, automated investigations, and intelligent decisioning, helping compliance teams operate at their full potential in the fight against financial crime.

We operate as a lean, high-performance team with high individual ownership and direct access to leadership.

Role overview:

Our Marketing team drives our brand presence across target markets. From customer engagements to integrated campaigns, they champion Flagright’s story, drive pipeline acceleration, and help customers discover our value through strategic, impactful programs.

We are hiring a Technical Content Lead in the Bay Area to lead and elevate how we communicate with enterprise buyers. You will turn product depth, customer reality, and market insight into content that shapes decisions, not just generates traffic.

You will work closely with internal teams to extract real insight and convert it into high-quality assets that are accurate, differentiated, and useful in live deals. You will raise the bar across all content, bring structure to content production, and ensure publications reflects the level of rigor and clarity expected by technical and enterprise audiences.

People who thrive at Flagright:

Have been knocked down before and gotten back up

Are resourceful—they figure things out with whatever tools are available

Have strong opinions and can defend them

Learn fast because they're hungry

Want to work with no-BS people building something important

People who struggle here:

Need extensive hand-holding

View high expectations as “unreasonable”

Actually prioritize work-life balance

Can’t handle ambiguity or rejection

Prefer consistent routine over fast-changing priorities

Key Responsibilities

Manage editorial strategy for technical and commercial content across enterprise and selected mid-market priorities

Translate GTM narratives, product capabilities, launches, and buyer pain points into high-quality assets used by both buyers and sales teams

Lead creation of flagship content, including client stories, technical explainers, thought leadership, reports, and webinar scripts

Partner closely with GTM, Product, Sales, and Solutions team to extract insights and convert them into clear, accurate, and commercially relevant content

Elevate existing content by rewriting weak pages, sharpening messaging, and improving how technical value is communicated

Build and manage the content production system, including briefs, editorial calendar, review workflows, source gathering, and publishing standards

Develop a repeatable approach to client proof, including case studies, quotes, proof points, and sales enablement assets

Ensure all content is accurate, differentiated, and valuable for enterprise evaluation, not generic traffic-driven output

Collaborate with distribution teams to ensure flagship content is effectively packaged and promoted post-publication

Who we are looking for

A strong B2B SaaS content strategist and writer-editor, not a generic blog manager

Experience in complex products or regulated categories such as fintech, regtech, fraud, AML, risk, infrastructure, cybersecurity, or similar

Strong at interviewing subject-matter experts, challenging vague inputs, and extracting concrete insights quickly

Brings strong editorial judgment and understands what makes content credible to enterprise buyers

Focused on creating decision-shaping assets, not high-volume, low-impact content

Comfortable owning both strategy and execution in an early-stage environment

Works effectively cross-functionally without requiring constant direction

Capable of setting editorial standards and scaling quality, including mentoring additional writers over time

Based in the Bay Area with right to work in the USA (visa sponsorship not available)
This is a fully in-person role, based in our Santa Clara office

Preferred Experience

Background in paralegal work, compliance research, investigative journalism, analyst research, or another research-intensive environment

Experience writing from primary sources such as regulations, policy documents, enforcement actions, technical docs, product data, or customer interviews

Exposure to fintech, financial crime, payments, banking infrastructure, or trust-heavy B2B categories

What we offer

Housing subsidy for those living within 1 mile of the office

Leadership position with direct influence on Flagright’s content and publications

Product with clear, real-world differentiation

High-bar environment focused on execution, learning, and continuous improvement
