About the role
Product Content Designer IV Remote Summary Content designer with 4-10 years of experience writing editorial stories for a consumer digital storefront. Writes the featured stories, collection themes, and curated roundups that span a catalog of games and apps - finding the angle that connects individual titles to what people are actually interested in right now, whether that's a cultural moment, a seasonal hook, a genre resurgence, or an emerging play pattern. Works from a recurring editorial calendar in close partnership with curation, product, and design.
Top skills: editorial writing and story development, trend spotting and cultural fluency, catalog knowledge across games and apps, voice and tone consistency, and writing to tight in-product constraints. Our company is seeking a temporary, contingent Content Designer to support editorial content development for games, apps, and entertainment experiences. In this role, you will produce clear, high-quality editorial writing and collaborate with internal stakeholders to help deliver content on a recurring publishing cadence.
Responsibilities:
Write and refine editorial content about games, apps, and entertainment, including (as applicable) storefront features, reviews, roundups, headlines, and short-form promotional copy.
Deliver copy quickly and accurately across multiple lengths and formats (e.g., title cards, short blurbs, and ~400-word features).
Translate curation inputs and/or performance signals into clear editorial angles, with an informed point of view on why a title, app, or moment matters.
Support ongoing publishing operations by meeting deadlines and adhering to editorial standards, voice, and formatting requirements.
Collaborate with cross-functional partners to ensure content is complete, consistent, and ready for publication.
Requirements:
Portfolio of published editorial writing about games, apps, or entertainment (e.g., storefront features, reviews, roundups, criticism).
Demonstrated fluency with games and app culture, including genres, communities, and emerging trends; ability to articulate and defend an editorial point of view.
Track record of shipping work on a recurring publishing calendar (e.g., weekly/daily cadence).
Ability to write clean, compelling copy at multiple lengths, from very short headlines to feature-length pieces (~400 words).
Comfort working in Figma alongside designers and maintaining copy in spreadsheets and/or a CMS.
Experience turning curation inputs and/or data signals into an editorial narrative or angle.
Preferred: Background in VR/AR, gaming, or entertainment media.

Pay range is $68 - $73 per hour with full benefits available, including:

Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
