Enchanter (Technical Email Writer) – Sourceress

Job Description:

We are called Sourceress and we’re accelerating human progress by making it easier for tech companies to build great teams. We’re searching for a writer with strong technical fluency and a sincere, conversational tone to write emails to technical folks (software engineers, product managers, product designers, etc.). You should have prior experience with (or a strong interest in) software engineering — online coding courses count, and so do bootcamps, building your own apps, etc. Our customers are tech companies with a diverse set of products and technologies (including self-driving cars and robotic life science labs!), so you’ll learn a ton about different technologies and parts of the software stack.

We’re still small, so you’ll have a lot of autonomy and you’ll need a lot of initiative + a strong ability to self-manage. We’re looking for someone who can work 30-40 hours per week on a contract basis. Our headquarters are in San Francisco, but we have team members all over the globe.

This job might be for you if…

• You love learning about people
• You’re the type of person who enjoys and can make effortless conversation with an interesting stranger
• You want to become a software engineer, or are looking to learn more about the engineering world
• You’re comfortable with using words like: frameworks, Javascript, platforms, non-trivial, stack, repositories, binary, and Django
• Your friends and colleagues describe you as extremely detail-oriented and proactive

If this sounds up your alley, please include in your cover letter:

1. A description of your prior experience (if any) with programming languages/libraries/frameworks/etc. Include courses you’ve taken, things you’ve built, or even just things you’ve read.
2. Why you think you would enjoy this job.
3. Your three favorite books, along with what you default to reading about.

Please note that this is a remote contract position. The hourly base rate is $18 per hour plus quantity/quality bonuses that can add $0.01-5.00 per writing hour.
