      Are you a versatile copywriter who has an in-depth understanding of digital channels? Do you have insight into different markets and what makes consumers tick? Can you interpret data and create interesting, snackable content from it? We want to hear from you!

They may chat through scripts for an Xtra Savings benefit explainer video after lunch, and then end the day editing AI-generated subject lines across retail categories in Airtable – our glorified spreadsheet.
