We’re searching for a UX Writer to create new and better experiences across our services. Specifically, you’ll focus on services that benefit businesses and the people who work at them.

  • Enjoy learning about and streamlining the language used by customers in business markets.
  • Are curious about every piece of a user journey, from error states to success criteria.
  • Oscillate between left- and right-brained writing, from storytelling to systematic thinking.
  • Know how to work with wireframes and functional specs.
  • Are interested in proposing what’s right only after exploring why everything else might be wrong.
  • Develop well-informed points of view, while also remaining open to adjustments based on input from others.
  • Can write from scratch, edit existing copy, and think beyond the written word with input from multiple team members.
  • Think long-term, but act quickly.
  • Are comfortable handling several projects simultaneously.
  • Deliver passionate and impactful presentations at all levels of an organization.
  • Collaborate and build relationships across product functions, demonstrating an ability to circulate and advocate for language.

  • Have an inexhaustible attention to detail.
  • Enjoy contributing to and implementing style guides and shared nomenclature across Apple services.
  • Are excited about evolving the Apple ecosystem of hardware, software, and services.

Description
