Content Manager, Noodle, New York, NY
Posted January 4, 2017
We all strive to understand what previous generations discovered, what they made, even their mistakes. Like them, we stumble, we fall, getting better with each try until eventually we master. And, to their delight, we inevitably surpass those who came before us. We create new ideas, new works, right wrongs, invent, innovate, and hope to pass on our knowledge to the generations to come.
Learning. It is what we do. It is what makes us human. May we never stop.
Noodle’s Content Manager will be, first: a reader, researcher, and seeker: someone who discovers, digs deep to find high-value content intended to education our users and push them to action. You see the angles and nuances in the stories that no one else sees, and understand the demographics different content is meant to appeal to. As Joan Didion said, “We tell ourselves stories in order to live.”
You should also be a planner, a strategist: someone who can build an architecture for content so it is routed to the right user, every time (read: metadata!). And just in case one wire gets crossed, you are able to retrace every step to make sure it doesn’t happen again. We all make mistakes, but only some of us learn from them.
Your left brain should be as sharp as your right, because you see the numbers form a flashlight: they illuminate content that works, and show us how to improve. Thus, our team and our app grows smarter.
We don’t have a formal application process. Please send us anything about yourself that you feel is relevant to this position. Materials should be addressed to Christine Larusso, [email protected].
A short note about us:
The team at Noodle is more interested in people who are passionate about and adept at discovering smart solutions to problems than the contents of one’s resume. We’re a proactive, hard-working group who intends to take our Product to the moon, and we want to hire those who are ready to strap in for the ride, and have ambitions that go far beyond “great.”
In addition to compensating you for your time, you’ll receive health and other benefits. We are an equal opportunity employer. Introverts and extroverts welcome.
