Question 2

What does a Content Editor do at Alguna?

Accepted Answer

## Who you are

* You love turning messy inputs into crisp, repeatable outputs. You thrive in the ambiguity of an early-stage start-up and enjoy taking half-defined ideas and turning them into polished, high-quality content.
* You’re a leverage-seeker. Rather than just “do the task,” you continuously look for ways to improve the process and find scalable systems.
* You have a bias toward action. You don’t wait for perfect instructions. You figure out what “good” looks like, propose a plan and execute.
* You communicate clearly. You write and edit with clarity; your updates and briefs keep cross-functional teams aligned.
* You’re comfortable with ambiguity. Priorities can change quickly; you’re excited to help build the content function from scratch.
* You use AI as leverage. You’re excited to experiment with AI tools (e.g., LLMs, AI copywriters) to draft, summarise and ideate – while applying strong editorial judgment.

## What the job involves

* Own positioning and keep it honest. Define what Alguna is, who it’s for, and why it wins—then keep it consistent across everything we ship.
* Partner with founders + GTM. Collaborate closely on go-to-market strategy and execute campaigns end-to-end.
* Run campaigns (the hands-on kind). From concept to creative to launch to measurement to iteration. If a landing page headline is underperforming, you’ll change it today, not next quarter.
* Know the market. Understand the competitive landscape, talk to customers, track trends, and turn insights into better messaging and strategy.
* Lead content strategy. Own content direction and execution across product marketing (launches, case studies, web, email, sales collateral), working with the team as needed.
* Find and scale channels. Identify, test, and optimize channels like content, social, SEO, email, partnerships, and whatever else works. Keep what performs, kill what doesn’t.

## What The Job Involves

* Own the AI content engine. Research, edit and publish TOFU-to-BOFU content that attracts and converts our target buyers – from product pages to comparison guides to thought leadership.
* Optimize for search and AI visibility. Ensure content is technically sound (SEO basics like on-page, metadata, internal linking) and structured for generative search (citations, Q&A formats).
* Refresh and improve existing content. Keep our library current and high-performing; run tests and make updates based on data.
* Manage AI-assisted workflows. Source and brief AI copywriting tools for first drafts; edit their output into opinionated, human-quality copy.
* Collaborate across the business. Work with product marketing, growth, RevOps and design to ship content that supports launches and demand-gen campaigns.
* Off-site visibility. Contribute to guest posts, directories, Reddit AMAs and other off-site initiatives to build backlinks and brand authority.

## What Success Looks Like

* Our content consistently ranks and appears in AI-powered results for our priority keywords and themes.
* The content machine runs smoothly: briefs are clear, drafts are delivered on time and edits are crisp.
* We see measurable organic growth in qualified traffic, demos and revenue attributable to content.
* Feedback from buyers shows that our content is useful, authoritative and differentiated.
