Job Summary

Own content production and distribution end-to-end while continuously optimizing reach across blogs, newsletters, social platforms, and ads.

  • Automate workflows and scheduled publishing
  • Measure impact on SEO, engagement, and signups

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • You own content production and distribution: write, publish, distribute the same day, measure, and automate the boring parts, aggressively. The founders set the direction, you decide what gets written each day and how what you write reaches its readers.
  • Concretely: blog posts, research articles backed by original engineering discoveries, essays, the changelog, product update emails, the newsletter, LinkedIn, dev.to, Hacker News, Reddit, Google Ads, SEO, and the occasional example repo or demo project.
  • You write about events, news, research results, and product features through the lens of Lingo.dev's positioning, for a technical audience and for a non-technical one.
  • You interview founders, engineers, and customers, and you write from what they said, quoted.
  • You publish on the site and off it, and contribute to our playbook and the narrative every piece is written from.
  • Whatever is due this week is published this week.
  • The volume grows, and you keep up by automating: Claude workflows, templated distribution, scheduled publishing.
  • You own organic and paid: SEO, GEO, AI visibility.
  • You track what gets cited, what ranks, what compounds, and what the spend returns, in Ahrefs, Search Console, and the ad accounts.

Requirements

  • You write in plain words, state facts, and cut every superlative and every sentence that carries no intention.
  • You have published content that got traction: a newsletter with real subscribers, posts that hit the front page, technical content developers shared. Show it.
  • You code enough to automate your own workflow. Vibe coding, scripting, AI-assisted development. A distribution pipeline on a schedule.
  • You interview well. You get a person's real opinion on the record, in words you can quote, and you turn it into a story told through the lens of Lingo.dev's positioning.
  • You write for engineers. Technical, specific, mechanism-first, and you can explain how a retrieval-augmented system works. You write for a non-technical reader with the same precision.
  • Claude/similar is your production method. You use it daily to produce at volume, and you have opinions about prompting, output quality, when to override, when to trust.
  • You know what Hacker News rewards, what LinkedIn's algorithm favors, and how to get a piece cited by AI systems.
  • You work SEO from the data. Ahrefs or Semrush and Search Console are open every day, and you pull rankings, backlinks, and AI citations from them yourself.
  • You care whether the piece drove signups, got cited, ranked, or earned backlinks, and you report it.

Preferred

  • You have marketed to a skeptical audience.
  • You have written research or essays that changed how a field thinks about a problem.
  • You have recorded and published YouTube videos, or made them with AI video tools such as Higgsfield or Hyperframes.

Benefits

  • Original engineering research to write about, from the engineers who did it.
  • The whole pipeline is yours, from the first draft to the number the piece moved.
  • Claude Code and Claude Cowork in daily production, with the budget to use them at volume.
  • Small team working directly with founders.
  • Occasional travel to meet the team in person.
  • Conference and learning budget.
  • Flexible working hours.
  • Health insurance.

Lingo.dev is the best way to create localization engines – stateful translation APIs, purpose-built for producing professional culture-aware translations using any LLM. Lingo.dev replaces legacy translation tools and lets teams scale content and product internationally in languages they don't speak, confidently, using built-in quality observability.Each localization engine persists domain context via retrieval augmented localization (RAL) – a method that enriches every translation request with verified glossary terms, brand voice rules, and per-locale instructions before the model generates output. RAL reduces terminology errors 17–45% across multiple LLM providers and language pairs (42,000+ quality judgments, controlled study).Lingo.dev powers localization infrastructure for elite international tech companies from 100+ countries, such as Mistral, Solana, SoSafe, and Cal.com.Backed by Y Combinator, Initialized Capital, founders of Supabase and Dependabot.
