- Evolve and steward OpenAI’s voice and tone across channels and experiences
- Present work confidently to senior leadership and provide strategic narrative input into campaign planning and creative development
- Raise the standard of writing craft across the organization, championing simplicity, precision, and obsessive attention to detail
You might thrive in this role if you
- Have 7+ years of experience in copywriting at top-tier in-house brands, creative agencies, or design-led companies
- Are a senior creative storyteller with experience leading narrative strategy for campaigns, launches, and brand initiatives
- Have proven experience writing for product experiences, digital surfaces, lifecycle moments, and major launches
