Content Designer

New York, San Francisco, or Remote US/Canada

Assembled is building software to transform and elevate customer support teams, which often represent 20-50% of the people at a company. Our workforce management platform helps some of the fastest-growing, most innovative companies in the world—including Stripe, Etsy, and Robinhood—to schedule, forecast, and organize their support teams. We’ve raised $70m in funding from the likes of NEA, Emergence Capital, and Stripe itself. You’ll be joining a special group of people who learned the ropes at companies like Stripe, Google, Atlassian, Twitter, Airbnb, Looker, NEA, Bain, and more.

We’re at an inflection point in customer support, where generative AI is shaking up an entire industry, for the people providing customer support, the people operating those teams, and the people receiving support. Assembled is looking for our first Content Designer to join the product team, reporting to our Head of User Experience. In this role, you will partner with customer-facing teams along with designers, engineers, and product managers to build a consistent, clarifying vocabulary for our products, to redefine and scale how we explain and document our products to our customers (and to each other), and to shape all manner of text-based experiences, whether generated by AI or not.

Responsibilities

  • Be an expert in the capabilities of our products and their business value: work closely with teams across Assembled to build up exhaustive knowledge of how our product works and why it matters from a customer’s perspective, as well as the wider customer support and workforce management landscape.
  • Build a product taxonomy: organize and maintain the system of words we use to describe concepts and capabilities in our products, improving clarity and consistency, particularly in metrics and reporting. Act as a consultant in the product design and development lifecycle to draft new terminology that builds on our existing product and industry vocabulary, and structure our product in ways that make sense to our users and customers.
  • Organize and scale technical documentation: partner with customer and product teams to create structure and process for how we write and maintain documentation that has an impact on user learning.
  • Maintain the style guide for UX and technical content, voice, and tone: cultivate how we use language to create compelling experiences throughout our products.
  • Create a vision for new systems for customer onboarding and support: design and organize how we help customers understand our product better, be it through onboarding materials, documentation, or AI-backed conversational interfaces.

About you

  • 4+ years experience in content design or UX writing experience for business software, including writing for a product experience, and crafting content strategy and style guides for product. Better yet if you have prior startup experience.
  • Technically curious: you are skilled at asking questions, auditing features, and doing hands-on research to learn about complex domains and user needs. You’re excited to put generative AI technology to work wherever it makes sense. (Healthy skepticism is ok too!)
  • Opinionated and ambitious about UX: you’re determined to build great experiences with whatever tools make sense, and you’re driven above all by user needs and customer impact. Language is your primary tool, but you have ideas and opinions about information architecture, product, and design more broadly.
  • Adept at distilling complexity through words: you know how to use language to simplify and clarify complex ideas — to turn chaos into order.
  • Self-motivated, pragmatic and collaborative: you know how to prioritize, preferring progress and impact over perfection. You work constructively with colleagues without getting stuck waiting for input.

Valued but not required

  • Visual design skills and/or experience using Figma or other collaborative design tools
  • Front-end coding skills and/or experience contributing directly to a codebase, using version control systems like git
  • Experience and ideas on the role of content design in a larger product design system
  • Experience in customer support and/or workforce management

The estimated base salary range for this role is $140,000 - $200,000 per year. The base pay offered may vary depending on location, job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. Stock options are provided as part of the compensation package, in addition to a full range of medical, financial, and/or other benefits, dependent on the position offered.

Our U.S. benefits

  • Generous medical, dental, and vision benefits 
  • Paid company holidays, sick time, and unlimited time off
  • Monthly credits to spend on each: professional development, general wellness, Assembled customers, commuting and community-support agriculture (CSA)
  • Paid parental leave 
  • Hybrid work model with catered lunches everyday (M-F), snacks, and beverages in our SF & NY offices
  • 401(k) plan enrollment

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
