[Remote] Senior Content Engineer
Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Lingo.dev is a localization engineering platform where teams measure translation quality, translate with LLMs, and proofread with native speakers. The Senior Content Engineer owns content production and distribution across technical and non-technical channels, while using automation, SEO, paid acquisition, and analytics to increase reach and measurable business outcomes.
Responsibilities
- You own content production and distribution: write, publish, distribute the same day, measure, and automate the boring parts, aggressively
- Concretely: blog posts, research articles backed by original engineering discoveries, essays, the changelog, product update emails, the newsletter, LinkedIn, dev.to, Hacker News, Reddit, Google Ads, SEO, and the occasional example repo or demo project
- You write about events, news, research results, and product features through the lens of Lingo.dev's positioning, for a technical audience and for a non-technical one
- You interview founders, engineers, and customers, and you write from what they said, quoted
- You publish on the site and off it, and contribute to our playbook and the narrative every piece is written from
- Whatever is due this week is published this week
- The volume grows, and you keep up by automating: Claude workflows, templated distribution, scheduled publishing
- You own organic and paid: SEO, GEO, AI visibility
- You track what gets cited, what ranks, what compounds, and what the spend returns, in Ahrefs, Search Console, and the ad accounts
- You write in plain words, state facts, and cut every superlative and every sentence that carries no intention
- You have published content that got traction: a newsletter with real subscribers, posts that hit the front page, technical content developers shared. Show it
- You code enough to automate your own workflow. Vibe coding, scripting, AI-assisted development. A distribution pipeline on a schedule
- You interview well. You get a person's real opinion on the record, in words you can quote, and you turn it into a story told through the lens of Lingo.dev's positioning
- You write for engineers. Technical, specific, mechanism-first, and you can explain how a retrieval-augmented system works. You write for a non-technical reader with the same precision
- Claude/similar is your production method. You use it daily to produce at volume, and you have opinions about prompting, output quality, when to override, when to trust
- You know what Hacker News rewards, what LinkedIn's algorithm favors, and how to get a piece cited by AI systems
- You work SEO from the data. Ahrefs or Semrush and Search Console are open every day, and you pull rankings, backlinks, and AI citations from them yourself
- You care whether the piece drove signups, got cited, ranked, or earned backlinks, and you report it
- You have marketed to a skeptical audience
- You have written research or essays that changed how a field thinks about a problem
- You have recorded and published YouTube videos, or made them with AI video tools such as Higgsfield or Hyperframes
