Copywriter

Yuga Labs is a web3 company exploring big ideas in identity, ownership, utility, and interoperability to push the crypto and NFT space forward. As The Defiant recently said, “The story of Yuga Labs is one where the improbable has become reality in the blink of an eye.” Since debuting with our flagship collection Bored Ape Yacht Club in April 2021, we’ve created new IP for the ape ecosystem (Mutant Ape Yacht Club, Bored Ape Kennel Club), acquired other top collections (CryptoPunks and Meebits), and pulled off successful events (ApeFest) and partnerships (Rolling Stone). And we made both web3 and gaming history — the biggest NFT mint ever followed by a game demo with record-breaking synchronized player participation —  for our newest initiative, Otherside.

Our Team

Creative is our product. It’s at the center of everything Yuga does. This team is made up of multidisciplinary designers, illustrators, 3D artists, writers, art directors, and creative directors who work across all of our projects.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a collaborative, versatile, curious, and ambitious Copywriter who’s excited to help grow Yuga and define a new industry. This role works across Yuga’s brands and teams on everything from site, social, and game UI copy to FAQs, blog posts, and internal-facing communications, so the ideal candidate is excited about raising the bar on copy no matter the project.

The Job

• Write! Craft high-quality, impactful copy to drive engagement across Yuga’s growing brands and build excitement for its communities.
• Translate complex, technical information into concise, clear, and compelling messaging across key Yuga channels.
• Contribute to C-suite comms content: speeches, op-eds, and other authored pieces.
• Co-manage and roll out Yuga’s singular brand voice and tone guidelines.
• Act as brand steward across all teams to ensure clear, consistent, and engaging messaging.

Your Skills

• 2+ years of professional writing experience in copywriting, journalism, communications, social media, content development, or marketing.
• The ability (and desire) to wordsmith one-line tweets, thousand-word FAQs, and everything in between.
• Deep engagement with whatever task is on hand so you’re not just a problem-solver, but a problem-finder — you can anticipate strategic and creative obstacles long before the final edit.
• Great at both receiving and giving feedback.
• An eye and enthusiasm for detail.
• Speed, agility, and comfort with ambiguity and a fast-moving start-up culture. Whole-heartedly embrace the rough first draft.
• Comfort with writing and maintaining multiple brand voices at once.
• Ability to handle sensitive matters and exercise excellent judgement.

 

Knowledge of web3, NFTs, and crypto is a bonus, but absolutely not required.

 

The annual salary for this position ranges from $100,000 to $150,000. The actual annual salary paid for this position will be based on several factors, including but not limited to, skills, prior experiences, training, company needs, and current market demands.  The annual salary range for this position is subject to change and may be adjusted in the future. This position may also be eligible for salary increases, bonuses, equity awards, and benefits.

What We Offer

• Working with the best-in-class talent creating innovative technologies and bringing the forefront of culture to web3

Apply anyway.

We believe true innovation in web3 requires diversity in perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds. But historically marginalized groups are underrepresented in the space, not just as participants but as leaders and creators. Luckily, we — and every web3 company — have the opportunity to bake necessary process and mindset shifts into our company DNA from the early days.

 

To help build a web3 that’s diverse and inclusive, we strive to build Yuga’s workplace to be diverse and inclusive. Not just how we do things day to day, but who does them and who decides what needs to be done.

 

So if you’re excited about one of our roles but your resume doesn’t align perfectly with the job description, please apply anyway. If you’re enthusiastic about web3 but come from an industry you think is unrelated, apply anyway. If you’re a great thinker and doer, apply anyway. The fate of web3 kiiinda depends on it.
