We’ve all found apps we love, and apps that have changed our lives. Apps transform the ways we learn, work, travel, have fun, and pursue our passions. In 2008, the App Store launched with 500 apps. Now there are more than two million. And so our team of writers, editors, and curators challenged ourselves: How can we offer more perspective and insight? How do we showcase the work of innovative developers? How can we make the App Store a place our customers will want to come to everyday? We’re hiring people who want to help make that happen. We are looking for a dynamic writer to produce engaging content around apps and games. This person will be responsible for creating daily editorial content to express the App Store's voice and perspective to a broad and diverse audience. You are a brilliant curator and communicator, with a deep knowledge about mobile technology and culture. You should be creative and results driven, with the skills to work across stakeholders, and an extensive background driving user engagement across varied platforms. You’re a digital and media enthusiast, love keeping up with pop culture, and are excited about how technology shapes our future. Most of all, you’re passionate about the role apps play in people’s lives, and are eager to help create an amazing user experience for millions of people around the world. The App Store is the biggest gaming destination in the world, and we’re looking for a passionate, knowledgable writer to join our creative team. The App Store offers games for all types of players, so applicants should display a critical eye across casual, mid-core and hardcore gaming. Knowledge of gaming trends, top titles across the industry, as well as emerging technology and indie game development is a plus.
