At HackerRank, content is how we shape the conversation around skills-first hiring, developer growth, and the future of technical talent. As a Content Writer, you will own the full journey from brief to published  writing LinkedIn posts, Twitter threads, product narratives, scripts, and long-form pieces that are sharp, specific, and built for audiences who can tell good writing from filler. 

• Write across formats LinkedIn posts, Twitter/X threads, product narratives, video scripts, and long-form editorial  moving from brief to polished draft without needing multiple alignment rounds.
• Use Claude Code, ChatGPT, or similar AI tools to accelerate first drafts, then edit aggressively for voice, specificity, and stakes.
• Build content as a system develop pillar topics, maintain narrative arcs across a content calendar, and design pieces for reuse across channels.
• Adapt tone and message for distinct B2B audiences  CHROs, engineering leaders, recruiters, and developers  without collapsing them into the same corporate voice.
