* Support onboarding and education flows: Help guide new travelers through features with tooltips, modals, and walkthrough copy that’s as useful as it is human.

* Native-level fluency in English
* Can adhere and align writing with an established brand tone of voice
* A portfolio that shows smart, user-centered copy across digital platforms
* Experience in travel, e-commerce, or data-rich products is a plus
* Strong systems thinker - you know how to scale messaging with documentation
* Comfortable working with data, A/B tests, and UX research insights and crafting easily-followed measurement tracking for results
* Clear communicator and natural collaborator
* Self-directed, remote-ready, and good with async workflows
* Bonus points if you’ve used Figma, Jira, Slack, a CMS, or localization tools
* Available for 10-20 hours per week with the ability to increase
What You Might Work On
* Onboarding messages for the KAYAK Trips feature (calendar sync, notifications, etc.)
* Rewriting the Explore or Flex Dates copy to better highlight the value and adhere to KAYAK style
* Helping evaluate user benefits for products in a qualitative measure and structuring benefit priorities
* Helping build a scalable messaging library to keep our copy consistent and efficient
