Job Title: Sr. Content Writer (UX)
Salary: $125,000/ year + Benefits
Location: 100% Remote - anywhere in the Continental U.S.
Note: All advertised roles are full-time positions with salaried (W2) compensation.
We are Friends From The City, a design and tech company focused on impact. Our mission is to make digital interactions with the government easy, inclusive, and accessible for everyone. We create user-centered, inclusive, and accessible digital experiences for federal agencies. Picture this: A loved one is trying to access information on a government website, but they experience frustrating navigational challenges. Perhaps a relative seeking citizenship needs help understanding the application process because of a language barrier. At Friends, we work to eliminate obstacles like these.
We envision a future where everyone has equal access to the benefits of technology and where the use of technology is guided by ethical principles, plain language, a commitment to sustainability, inclusivity, and accessibility. We’re a minority, woman-owned, LGBT+., and service-disabled veteran-owned small business. That being said, diversity and inclusion aren’t trendy bylines for us. Everyone we hire is celebrated for their unique background, experience, and talent.
Our approach to human-centered design and software development is pretty straightforward. Guided by user research, we design and develop functional platforms using clean code and intuitive design, and then we make those platforms accessible to everyone.
As a Sr. Content Writer, you’ll be at the heart of creating clear, concise, and engaging content that connects with all Veterans. You’ll work with UX researchers, designers, and product managers to ensure every message is user-centered and easy to understand, no matter how complex the information.
Our ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced environment, builds strong relationships with product teams, and champions plain language principles. This role is your chance to make a difference—helping Veterans access and understand the services they're entitled to while directly improving the lives of those who’ve served our country.
