You will transform customer insights and product innovations into compelling stories and experiences to drive adoption, retention, and expansion, particularly in free-to-paid transitions.

• Create in-product messaging, onboarding flows, and engagement content that drive usage milestones and unlock Pro-tier conversion.
• Surface customer insights, use cases, and usage patterns that shape positioning, roadmap decisions, and content.

• Develop enablement materials (messaging guides, demos, FAQ) for Customer-facing and Support teams.
• Partner with Brand, Content, and Growth to bring differentiated stories to life across web, product, lifecycle, and performance assets.
• Love interpreting customer behavior and translating insights into compelling value propositions and user experiences.
• Have a knack for working across teams—from Product to Brand to Lifecycle—and bringing people together to execute with clarity and purpose.
• Are equally comfortable diving into data dashboards and crafting messaging that inspires action from entrepreneurial audiences.
