Editor in Chief / Head of Content
Remote | $90-110K
You are the person who makes Wild Signal's thinking legible, beautiful, and impossible to ignore. For our clients, our prospects, and the AI systems that are reshaping how brands get found.
Who You Are
You are a writer first. You love language the way a musician loves sound — not just functionally but aesthetically. You have strong opinions about a comma. You can write a pitch that makes someone lean forward and a report that makes them feel smart. You understand that the best AI-assisted content still sounds unmistakably human because a human shaped it with intention.
You are not a content factory. You are an editor, a collaborator, a standard-setter. You will work alongside AI tools not to produce volume but to produce quality. You know the difference between content that passes and content that lands.
What You'll Do
- Write & Edit: Wild Signal's client deliverables: Wayfinder reports, brand articles, GEO playbooks, strategic memos, and more. You're an author.
- Human in the Loop: Be a human reviewer in a fast-paced AI environment. A crucial human in the loop.
- Editorial Voice: Develop and maintain Wild Signal's editorial voice, and help clients find theirs.
- Research to IP: Partner with our Chief Innovation Officer to turn emerging GEO research into frameworks, narratives, and IP that the industry will reference.
- Content Operations: Build a content operation from scratch: templates, workflows, standards to help us scale with integrity.
- Quality Gate: Be the internal sniff test: if it doesn't sound human, it doesn't go out.
What You Bring
- Material writing/editing experience: journalism, agency, publishing. We don't care about the pedigree, we care about the portfolio.
- A genuine curiosity about AI, search, and how brands earn visibility in a world where the algorithm has opinions.
- Comfort working in ambiguity and speed. This is a startup, not a polished enterprise agency.
- The ability to make complex ideas simple — and an allergy to the tells of AI output.
- Strong opinions, loosely held.
Why This Is An Exciting Job
GEO — Generative Engine Optimization — is the newest frontier in communications. Wild Signal is building the category. The person in this role won't be executing someone else's content strategy. They'll be helping invent what great GEO content even looks like. That's a rare opportunity.
This is a remote role. We are an AI-native agency. We work hard, we think carefully, and we believe language still matters — maybe more than ever.
