About Zipline

Do you want to change the world? Zipline is on a mission to transform the way goods move. Our aim is to solve the world's most urgent and complex access challenges by building, manufacturing and operating the first instant delivery and logistics system that serves all humans equally, wherever they are. From powering Rwanda's national blood delivery network and Ghana's COVID-19 vaccine distribution, to providing on-demand home delivery for Walmart, to enabling healthcare providers to bring care directly to U.S. homes, we are transforming the way things move for businesses, governments and consumers. The technology is complex but the idea is simple: a teleportation service that delivers what you need, when you need it. Through our technology that includes robotics and autonomy, we are decarbonizing delivery, decreasing road congestion, and reducing fossil fuel consumption and air pollution, while providing equitable access to billions of people and building a more resilient global supply chain.
Join Zipline and help us to make good on our promise to build an equitable and more resilient global supply chain for billions of people.

About You and The Role

Zipline has spent years developing the world's most advanced autonomous delivery platform and serving some of the most deserving communities in the world but we've yet to develop our brand and tell the full breadth of our story. We're looking for a seasoned copywriter with experience crafting impactful brands and telling compelling stories to join our team and create the future of the Zipline brand voice.

What You'll Do

  • Take ownership of the creative process beyond just copy to create compelling experiences for our current and future customers
  • Write short and form copy, name products and initiatives, create voice and tone guidelines, and be a trusted advisor to the company on how Zipline shows up in the world through our words and tone
  • Collaborate internally with other creatives, our marketing team, product leaders, engineers, and more to tell Zipline's story and communicate our brand
  • Collaborate externally with agencies and manage copywriters and contractors
  • Work closely with the creative director to own and drive projects forward and come up with creative solutions to challenging problems
  • Take ownership of the creative process beyond copywriting to create compelling experiences for our current and future customers
  • Write short and long form copy, name products and initiatives, create voice and tone guidelines, and be a trusted advisor to the company on how Zipline shows up in the world through our words and tone of voice

What You'll Bring

  • 5-8 years of copywriting experience at an agency, in-house, or both
  • Experience writing copy for product launches, web pages, video scripts, email, and other marketing materials
  • Experience managing full-time and contract copywriters
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate closely with peers in marketing and others across an organization
  • A strategic mindset; you care as much about the why as the how and your work is rooted in a deep understanding of our customers and their motivations
