Senior UX Writer

Job Description

UX Writing is a discipline under the umbrella of Design, that we at Careem, aspire to take a leading role in defining and advising on the story, content and ultimately delivery of the experiences we ship to our customers. It s more than words, more than copywriting.
Principally it is a discipline that needs proper definition, processes, systems and tooling. We want to invest first and foremost in quality, scalability, and predictability (in our delivery), and only then in words.
Later on, once the above is defined, and apart from casting magic-word-spells on all stakeholders, we also expect you to own, manage and create beautiful and succinct copy that is on brand for everything from text buttons, error messages, menus, labels and more for all our products across Customer, Captain and Colleague experiences.
