Copy Writer/Editor

This person is responsible for the quality of copy on the website and blog, marketing and sales materials, press releases, and generally any written content in the public eye which pertains to Betteroffline. You will be a linguistic diamond in the Silicon-Valley-startup rough.

Marketing Specialist

We need someone to help evangelize our product to potential customers. This person has two primary responsibilities. First, to create standards-compliant marketing materials to support sales.
