Looking to join a fast-growing company on a talented team that’s changing the future of restaurant experiences? If so, that’s Toast.

As a Senior UX Writer, you’re passionate about showcasing the value of UX writing as a critical part of any experience. You’re right for this role if you have a keen eye for grammar and a deep respect for copy conventions and brand voice; you proactively push your craft to higher levels of excellence through curiosity, training, and a genuine love for writing (and rewriting); you strive for clarity, brevity and delight in the products you work on and you are an enthusiastic and humble teammate.

What you will do:

  • Define Toast’s UX writing conventions based on our brand voice and tone — owning copy consistency across products
  • Work closely with Designers, User Researchers, and Product Managers to understand the requirements for projects and produce clear, concise, helpful user experiences
  • Write human, straightforward copy considering multiple solutions and delivering well thought-out options on time
  • Juggle multiple assignments with ease and mentor others with grace
  • Present confidently and deliver work to a variety of audiences, articulating copy choices and the thinking behind your recommendations

Do you have the right ingredients?

  • 4+ years’ relevant experience in a software company with positive results
  • BA/BS degree with an emphasis in English, HCI, Art, etc. preferred
  • Passion for writing simple, straightforward, user-centered copy and a demonstrable portfolio to prove it
  • Knowledge of user-centered design with the ability to recognize when copy isn't’ the solution to the problem
  • Comfort working in Google Docs, Sketch, and Invision
  • Innovative thinking, empathy, and a desire to continuously learn and evolve
