Our Mission

  • Zilper’s mission is to save money, property, and lives by moving utilities underground. The company is developing technology to efficiently and safely bore through any geology.

About the Job

Lead small and large content projects, develop and own project timelines, and identify potential blockers. Additionally, you’ll help to build internal and external knowledge articles to support our customers and internal support specialists.

  • Model our lived behaviors to encourage others to do the same in their daily work.

Requirements

The ideal candidate will have most, if not all, of these requirements:

  • 4+ years of experience in a copywriting, technical writing, brand design or social media content generation role.
  • 2+ years experience creating content for customer support in tech or other industries, where products and policies are complex and ever-changing.

  • Exceptional written communication skills, ability to convey clear messages to a wide variety of users across modalities.
