These users are the go-to “Addepar experts” at their firm, often responsible for setting up and maintaining the Addepar system. They’re organized and pragmatic, with a keen eye for efficiency, accuracy, and data security/compliance. 

Our ideal candidate is skilled at distilling complex ideas, passionate about building smooth and efficient workflows, and thinks holistically about delivering the right content at the right time.

Responsibilities

  • Write and edit exceptional UI copy for product tours and interactions, as well as supplemental help documentation.

  • Articulate and document your content strategy and rationale. Manage your time and set clear expectations.
  • Collaborate with and influence product management, design, and engineering teams, as well as client-facing services teams. Adapt to feedback.
  • Educate partners on the role of content strategy throughout the product development process. Evangelize Addepar’s voice and tone.
  • Mentor your fellow writers and contribute to regular content reviews.
  • Use data and research to evaluate and improve content.
  • Stay current on industry best practices that help differentiate our product and engage our users.

Requirements

  • A portfolio that showcases how you simplified and enhanced desktop experiences for real people over the past three years. We’re especially interested in product tours, interactions, and style guides.
  • Deep understanding of best practices for in-app content across platforms and experience developing and implementing content standards.
  • Familiarity with and appreciation for user research and how to extract data-driven insights.
  • Detail-oriented, with a keen eye for consistency.
  • Excellent communication and storytelling skills.
  • Experience in the finance industry is not required but a huge plus.
