Job description

Overview

Automotive Content Editor (freelance) role at Jerry. Jerry’s platform helps drivers with insurance comparisons and smart vehicle maintenance, serving millions of users.

We’re looking for a detail-oriented Automotive Content Editor to review, refine, and elevate articles written by our team of expert auto mechanic writers. You’ll ensure every piece is clear, accurate, on-brand, and genuinely helpful to everyday drivers. This is a freelance, remote role offering flexible hours with steady editorial assignments.

What You’ll Do

  • Edit and proofread articles (typically 800–1,500 words) on car repairs, diagnostics, and maintenance, ensuring technical accuracy and readability.
  • Simplify complex automotive concepts so they’re clear for non-technical readers.
  • Enforce Jerry’s style guide, SEO best practices, and editorial standards for consistency across all content.
  • Check factual details against reputable sources and manufacturer recommendations.
  • Provide constructive feedback to writers to continuously improve content quality.
  • Collaborate with our editorial team to maintain our voice and help prioritize content updates.

About You

  • Strong automotive knowledge : Comfortable fact-checking repair processes, maintenance intervals, and parts terminology. You might be a former mechanic, service advisor, or a long-time auto writer / editor.
  • Editorial expertise : Experience editing or managing automotive content for digital publications, manuals, blogs, or consumer guides.
  • Digital savvy : Familiarity with CMS platforms (e.g., WordPress) and understanding of SEO fundamentals (keywords, headers, meta data).
  • Excellent communicator : You can polish technical drafts into engaging, reader-friendly content.
  • Detail-driven & deadline-reliable : You spot inconsistencies and ensure every piece is accurate and complete, always meeting deadlines.
  • Compensation & Perks

  • Competitive pay, depending on your editorial experience and technical depth
  • Flexible remote work — take on projects that fit your schedule.
  • Opportunity to shape content that reaches millions of drivers and helps Jerry remain a trusted resource in automotive care.
  • How To Apply

  • Your resume
  • 3 editing or writing samples showcasing your automotive expertise, preferably focused on repair, maintenance, or technical topics.
  • Equal Employment Opportunity statement and accommodations are provided as part of our job posting.
