Copywriter

  • Full-time

Company Description

We believe everyone should be able to participate and thrive in the economy. So we’re building tools that make commerce easier and more accessible to all. We started with a little white credit card reader but haven’t stopped there. Our new reader helps our sellers accept chip cards and NFC payments, and our Cash app lets people pay each other back instantly. We’re empowering the independent electrician to send invoices, setting up the favorite food truck with a delivery option, helping the ice cream shop pay its employees, and giving the burgeoning coffee chain capital for a second, third, and fourth location. Let’s shorten the distance between having an idea and making a living from it. We’re here to help sellers of all sizes start, run, and grow their business—and helping them grow their business is good business for everyone.

You Have:

  • Two or more years experience in UX and marketing writing in an agency and/or in-house group.

  • The ability to explain complicated products and processes in a simple way to both business owners and consumers

  • The ability to work in a fast-paced environment and juggle several projects at once

  • A positive attitude and a manageable ego—but the ability to stand up for your work when you really believe in it

  • Creative flexibility—you can flex your writing and adjust your language based on your audience
