Careers Content Writer
Full-time role based in our Lucknow office. You write the launch posts when we ship, the documentation customers depend on, the blog articles that rank, and the marketing rewrites that lift conversion. Direct voice, research-driven, native-quality English.
We ship two to four product releases per month across the catalog, plus a blog cadence and a documentation footprint that covers 100+ products. Content production keeps up with the engineering rhythm, and that is what this role is for.
You work with the product team and the engineering team. Briefs come from us; drafts come from you. The byline is yours; the editing is collaborative.
Responsibilities
Four areas of the work. The mix shifts week to week depending on what is launching, but all four are part of the role.
01
Write the launch posts, store product pages, and outbound emails when we ship a new plugin or a new theme version. Two to four launches per month across the catalog. Brief is provided; final copy is yours.
Product launch posts, store pages.
02
Write the long-form blog posts on wbcomdesigns.com/blog that document how to use our products, explain the WordPress / BuddyPress ecosystem, and rank for relevant search terms. Editorial calendar runs three to four weeks ahead.
Blog posts, ranked for search.
03
Update the docs sites for each plugin and theme. Document new features as they ship, fix outdated screenshots, refine setup walkthroughs based on support-ticket feedback. Documentation is a product, not a side effect.
Plugin and theme docs.
04
Audit and rewrite older marketing pages for clarity, keyword targeting, and conversion. Work with the design team when a page needs new structure. The site has 200+ pages; many are due for a copy refresh.
Marketing page rewrites.
Requirements
Four hard requirements. Send writing samples that demonstrate them with your application.
01
You can take a technical topic you do not yet understand, research it well enough to explain it, and write a draft that a beginner can follow without being condescending. Native-quality English in your output.
Research-and-explain at native English level.
02
You have used WordPress as an admin, even if you have not built plugins yourself. Comfortable with the dashboard, posts vs pages, plugins vs themes, the block editor. Familiarity with BuddyPress is a plus.
WordPress admin proficiency.
03
You write to be understood, not to perform. Short sentences. Specific verbs. No "seamless solutions" or "robust integrations". Our voice is direct; your samples should match.
Direct, jargon-light voice.
04
Your first draft is the start, not the end. You handle feedback well, integrate edits without ego, and learn the house style quickly. Editor and writer collaborate; the byline is yours.
Drafts iterate, ego stays out.
Nice to have
Not required, but if you have any of these, mention them in the cover letter.
01
You have written for search before, can read a Google Search Console report, and understand what a target keyword cluster looks like in practice. Useful for the marketing-page rewrite work.
SEO + GSC + GA4 read-fluent.
02
You can write in Markdown and use Git for content workflows. Some of our content lives in repos before it lands in WordPress, so a writer who can commit edits is a plus.
Markdown + Git for content.
03
You have contributed to a WordPress meetup, WordCamp, or community blog. Useful context for the BuddyPress and ecosystem coverage we do.
WP community contributor.

Two-line cover letter is fine. Attach your resume and link to two or three published pieces in the message body. Applications go straight to hr@wbcomdesigns.com.

The blog at /blog/ is the voice we are hiring you to extend. Read a few posts; if they match how you want to write, we want to talk.
After 16 years of buying WordPress themes and plugins, I know exactly what bad support looks like and Wbcom Designs is the polar opposite. My setup was a nightmare: multiple tools, deep integrations, custom configurations that required…
