About the role
HAUS is seeking an experienced freelance Web Copywriter to lead web copy for deep tech startups. You will own the writing for client websites, shaping narratives from homepage through product, technology, and about sections, ensuring the story lands clearly and compellingly for venture-backed B2B tech companies.
Responsibilities
- Lead web copy for HAUS client websites, including homepage, product, technology, and about sections for modern startup sites.
- Think strategically about how the story unfolds on the page, shaping the messaging framework and sequencing narrative across pages.
- Translate complex science and engineering concepts into clear, persuasive copy for investors, customers, and talent without oversimplifying or relying on buzzwords.
- Collaborate with brand strategists, art directors, and designers to refine narrative and positioning before writing, pushing back when necessary to ensure differentiation and alignment with visual design.
- Establish consistent voice, terminology, and cadence across all pages of a client’s site to create a unified, confident company narrative.
- Occasionally extend web copy into adjacent materials like pitch decks, launch one-pagers, or announcements, ensuring consistency with the web voice.
Qualifications
- Passion for deep tech and genuine excitement for cutting-edge technologies in AI, robotics, biotech, aerospace, and adjacent fields.
- Professional copywriting experience with a strong portfolio of web copy for B2B technology companies, ideally venture-backed startups or emerging tech. Your portfolio must include full website launches you owned or led.
- Strategic web thinking: ability to architect copy at the site level, understanding how narrative sequences across pages and shapes visitor perception.
- Proven ability to translate technical depth into clear, precise copy for non-expert audiences, including extracting compelling narratives from whitepapers or research papers.
- Editorial craft: strong writing fundamentals, including voice, rhythm, structure, and the ability to refine copy for impact.
- Attention to detail: commitment to error-free, polished copy with consistent terminology and no buzzword drift.
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills, with the ability to collaborate remotely via Slack and Zoom, articulate copy decisions, and integrate feedback.
- Tech-savvy with curiosity about innovation in AI, robotics, biotech, aerospace, and other deep tech domains.
Skills
