Job Summary

Own the storytelling pipeline for security content, translating expert interviews and research into multiple formats while keeping technical accuracy and SEO in scope.

Story discovery: Hunt compelling security stories with threat intel and SOC partners, then pitch blogs, reports, and how-tos.
Expert translation: Interview practitioners and convert jargon into clear content for both technical and non-technical readers.
Format multipliers: Turn one research piece into blog posts, social content, and longer reports while upholding style and standards.

Job Description

Responsibilities

Write and edit technical content—blogs, threat reports, data sheets, how-tos, whatever the story needs.
Hunt for stories instead of waiting for them. Embed with the threat intel and SOC teams, spot what's worth telling, and pitch it.
Interview security experts and translate what they know into content other practitioners want to read. (Sometimes for non-technical readers, too.)
Turn one piece of research into many: blog, social, report, and beyond. Volume matters here.
Work with security, engineering, product, and PMM so the technical details hold up.
Write with SEO in mind where it counts, and follow the in-house style guide.

Requirements

You write because you like it, technical topics especially, and you've got a portfolio you'd stand behind.
6+ years writing or editing: journalism, content marketing, or technical writing. A background that touched cybersecurity or another technical field helps.
Enough security fluency to interview an expert, ask the sharp follow-up, and get the translation right—without doing the analysis yourself.
Curiosity that doesn't quit, and the speed to learn a domain you don't know yet.
The ability to take a messy interview or a pile of raw data and turn it into something clear.
The project management to run several pieces at once and hit your dates.
Comfort with GenAI tools—we use Gemini and Claude—to work faster.
Google Workspace, and AP style (or the willingness to learn it).
A degree, or a good story about why you don't have one.

Benefits

Unlimited PTO (which we model and encourage)
Work location flexibility
