• Familiarity with analytics and performance-driven content optimization
• Interest in or experience using AI tools to support content workflows

Details

• Part-time contract (~20 hours/week)
• Strong preference for candidates based in New York (or able to work East Coast hours)
• Long-term engagement with potential to scale to full-time hours (40/week)
• Remote, with ongoing collaboration across teams
