"The Marketing team is poised for unprecedented growth and opportunity.

As a Digital Marketing Content Writer, you will be a key contributor to a high-priority website initiative focused on improving content structure, search performance, and user experience across Absorb’s digital presence. This one-year contract role calls for a high-output writer who blends storytelling skill with foundational SEO knowledge and can work across teams to ensure all content is accurate, engaging, and aligned with both our brand voice and our prospect and customer needs.

You’ll be responsible for writing and updating a wide range of web copy, collaborating with our SEO team, designers, product marketers, and fellow writers to bring each page to life. You care deeply about the customer, do your homework before writing a word, and can transform product or technical details into digestible and persuasive content. This role sits within the content marketing team and supports a business-critical effort to elevate how we show up online — both in terms of brand clarity and organic performance.
