Tech Content Writer - YouTube

We've tried hiring writers who say they want to work in the YouTube space. But honestly Many don't have the mix of technical clarity, taste, and YouTube-native thinking this role needs.

This JD exists to help the right candidates recognize themselves.

This is a writing role for a YouTube channel in the SaaS/tech space.

If you haven't worked with software, tools, or product-focused content before, you might struggle in this role.

What makes this different from a typical content writing job

Traditional writers think in paragraphs, brand guidelines, and clean grammar.

But YouTube requires something else entirely you're writing for spoken clarity, story flow, moment-to-moment audience attention, and the creator's delivery style.

The same sentence that looks perfect on a blog can fall flat when spoken aloud. We're looking for a writer who understands why.

If you're the right fit, you can naturally:

• Understand complex software or workflows and explain them simply
• Predict how an audience will feel at each moment in a video
• Think in scenes, not sentences
• Understand why certain channels attract certain audiences
• Read between the lines and see a creator's intent behind the content
• Turn technical ideas into clear, engaging YouTube scripts
• Shape pacing, rhythm, and narrative flow to keep viewers watching

This is not entertainment writing.

This is not advertising writing.

This is technical storytelling for YouTube.

Huge bonus (almost a requirement):

Experience writing for a SaaS, software, developer, engineering, or product-focused YouTube channel.

Not a fit if you:

• Come mainly from advertising, lifestyle, or entertainment writing
• Are uncomfortable understanding how software or tools work
• Prefer abstract creative writing over structured explanation
• Avoid research-heavy content
• Have never written for spoken delivery
• Want a job where you only write but don't think about viewer psychology
• If any of these resonate, you won't enjoy this role and that's okay.
