• Are willing to be accountable for our customer’s success

Role Responsibilities

• Blog content writing and editing
• Product/feature announcements
• Helping with sales: landing page copy, email writing, social media writing
• Writing regular blog emails
• Editing and refreshing content
• Implementing SEO best practices
• Image & screenshot editing
• Revamping existing articles to make them better
• Research – tools & tech knowledge, industry statistics & concepts, and most importantly, product knowledge

Your skills are needed to help us deliver on our promise of helping store owners grow into their potential.

If you want to succeed in this role, it’s best if you also have the following:

1. Desire, drive, and passion (preferably bags of it!)

2. Excellent written & spoken English, but also the ability to write casually (ie. knowledge that big words aren’t always clear words)

3. The ability to teach (we do lots of how-to style tutorial content)

3. Initiative – willingness to pick things up and not wait around for someone to tell you

4. Be comfortable accepting critical feedback, knowing its not personally and we’re all just trying to produce at a high quality level

5. A producer mindset – our team is high performing, we create like the wind and there’s no room for free loaders

6. Flexibility – sometimes we need to all pull together and that means doing things that aren’t strictly “writing” from time to time

What we offer:

Our company is fast-growing, bootstrapped, stable and profitable. This is a great opportunity to join a growing team of smart and enthusiastic people who believe in the mission of democratising e-commerce for even the smallest players. 

Benefits:

• Competitive salary. This is not a per/word position, we’re offering fulfilment + long term stability.
• Paid health insurance for full-time employees (regionalised to your part of the world).
• Work from home. We’re spread out all over the world – mostly in Australia, Philippines & Indonesia.
• Annual paid time off for full-time employees. We encourage employees to take the time they need for vacation, to stay healthy, and to spend time with friends and family.
• Paid sick leave.
• Paid maternity and paternity leave for full-time employees.
• A culture of continued learning and professional development.
• The opportunity work on meaningful problems for people who rely on our software to run their businesses (and by extension support themselves and their families).
• Company provided laptop on your 5 year anniversary.
• We cover costs of company travel (including our annual all-company retreat)
• Ability to work with some of the best people in the business in a fast paced environment.
• And in case you were wondering: no politics, no b.s., and no jerks!

Location & Other Requirements

This is a remote position – our team is spread out all over the world. The company is based in Brisbane, Australia so company operating hours are 9am to 5pm AEST (UTC +10). While it’s not required that you cover that exact timezone, you must be available during a significant portion of the day for informal/formal meetings & work assignments.

Other Requirements

• Modern laptop/desktop computer system.
• You need to be capable of running any required software without slowing down or causing restrictions in your work. No pirated operating systems or other non-legit softwares.
• Reliable fixed broadband internet connection (Ideally a fiber connection for stability + access to a phone/wifi backup).
• Availability to participate in audio/video meetings between 9am to 5pm AEST (Australian Eastern Standard Time).
• A webcam and a quiet place to work – the team frequently conducts video and screen share meetings throughout our work.
