 Upwork ($UPWK) is the world’s work marketplace. We serve everyone from one-person startups to large, Fortune 100 enterprises with a powerful, trust-driven platform that enables companies and talent to work together in new ways that unlock their potential.

Last year, more than $3.8 billion of work was done through Upwork by skilled professionals who are gaining more control by finding work they are passionate about and innovating their careers.

As a Lead Content Designer at Upwork, you’ll create clear, consistent, and compelling content that plays a pivotal role in the user experience across our platform. You’ll design UX content for our SaaS product, think in terms of flows and interactions, and ensure that language functions as a system that embodies our brand while adapting to meet users where they are. Join us in shaping user experiences and driving innovation across our platform.

Responsibilities:

  • Write clear, user-friendly product copy that simplifies complex ideas and flows.

  • Identify information architecture (IA) issues and recommend improvements.

  • Act as a catalyst for vision work across Upwork’s core product experiences, embedding with key initiatives and influencing others.

  • Support teams in launching new features, ensuring seamless integration into existing product flows, including AI-powered capabilities.

  • Contribute insights to inform product strategy, aligning short-term and long-term business goals.

  • Design scalable content and champion continuous improvement of content standards through a design system.

  • Collaborate with and support teammates in iterating and improving content quality.

  • Apply UX research and data to inform content decisions.

  • Manage content backlogs, prioritize tasks, and meet deadlines.

  • Present work for feedback and revise based on input.

What it takes to catch our eye:

  • Proven experience driving UX writing, IA, and content strategy decisions for SaaS products or applications.

  • A knack for transforming complex inputs into simple, intuitive outputs.

  • Strong leadership skills in managing projects and collaborating effectively as part of a team.

  • Aptitude for coaching and challenging the status quo with structured thinking.

  • A proactive approach to identifying opportunities for innovation and addressing challenges.

  • Ability to connect the dots between products and features while keeping customer needs in focus.

  • Clear and confident communication skills with the ability to explain and defend work.

  • A growth mindset with resilience, openness to feedback, and a drive to improve.

Come change how the world works.

We are a remote-first organization working together to create exciting remote work opportunities for a global community of professionals.
