Job description

A Bit About Us :

We are Arcadia Science. Arcadia is a science company founded and led by scientists. Our mission is to transform evolutionary innovations into real-world solutions by openly developing more efficient, replicable, and sustainable ways to leverage the biology of diverse organisms. Scientists at Arcadia share as much of their research as possible to gather community feedback and accelerate scientific progress.

The Opportunity :

We’re looking for a 2-3 month contract Writer to help us share our scientific and business progress with a wide audience through writing. The ideal candidate will have editorial experience and a keen eye for detail. You should be able to contextualize our research, which covers a broad range of topics and disciplines. Through this effort, we want to make our work understandable by the public without deep expertise in a given field. We shoot for a more conversational tone with visibility into our thinking. The Writer will be involved at the outset of planning new posts in partnership with analysts and co-founders, preparing early drafts, and incorporating feedback.

Responsibilities

  • Work directly with our co-founders to prepare written updates on our science and business by drafting copy, and providing high-level feedback on structure and organization
  • Maintain a firm grasp of Arcadia's publishing experiment and business model in order to help ideate and iterate on our written communications
  • Write for clarity while taking care to ensure scientific and historical accuracy

Experience

  • You should have enough scientific experience to understand our general research aims, which covers a broad range of topics and scientific disciplines.
  • A minimum of one year professional experience in writing and editing science or other technically-focused communication
  • Firm understanding of basic research ecosystem and biotech sector (eg. venture capital)
  • $75 - $90 an hour

    Arcadia Science is an equal opportunity workplace; we welcome people from all backgrounds and communities.

    Please note that an offer of employment from Arcadia is contingent upon the successful clearance of a reference and background check.
