Job Description:

Ethos is redefining how people protect the ones they love — transforming an 8-week, agent-led life insurance process into a seamless digital experience that takes less than 8 minutes. As a Staff Content Designer, you’ll partner with our content team to shape the language, systems, and strategies that define how Ethos communicates trust, clarity, and care across every touchpoint. This role goes beyond crafting words. You’ll serve as a strategic partner and thought leader in product development — influencing direction from the earliest stages of concept through launch. You’ll elevate our content design discipline, partner with product design and other functions, and create frameworks that scale across multiple product surfaces and teams. Your work will directly impact how millions of people understand and purchase life insurance, helping Ethos fulfill its mission to make protection accessible, transparent, and human.

Partner closely with Product, Design, Research, Brand, Content Design and leadership to align communication across holistic user journeys
Establish the playbooks for supporting products at different lifecycles and evolving Ethos’ content maturity overall
Drive high-impact initiatives across multiple product areas, ensuring content clarity, emotional resonance, and conversion effectiveness
Create scalable frameworks for tone, messaging hierarchy, and microcopy patterns that optimize for clarity, emotional resonance, and product performance
Lead content forward experience projects where narrative helps users navigate nuanced decisions and emotional barriers inherent in purchasing life insurance
Champion accessibility, inclusivity, and transparency through every word and interaction
Guide product designers and product managers in content craft
Contribute to and evolve Ethos’s content design standards, systems, and governance models to ensure consistency across teams
Intake and synthesize key stakeholder feedback to hone designs and achieve alignment across cross-functional partners
Partner with Data Science and Research to design experiments and content hypotheses that directly connect language to user behavior and business metrics
Use qualitative and quantitative insights to continuously refine Ethos’s voice and approach to storytelling

Requirements:

8+ years of content design, UX writing, product writing or other relevant work
3+ years in a senior or staff-level content role
Demonstrated success designing content systems and frameworks at scale
Experience leading content design for multi-surface consumer products (web, mobile, and email)
Proven ability to influence product direction through language strategy and user insight
Deep understanding of conversion-driven storytelling, particularly in regulated or complex domains (e.g., fintech, insurance, healthcare)
Proficiency in Figma and collaboration tools
A portfolio that demonstrates strategic thinking, cross-functional collaboration, and craft excellence
