- Familiarity with content management systems such as WordPress, including basic content formatting and uploading, is a plus.
- Familiarity with AI tools such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, or similar platforms is a plus, with the ability to use them responsibly to support research, brainstorming, and editing without replacing original research, independent judgment, or writing.
- Familiarity with Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), or a willingness to learn how content structure and information quality influence discoverability across search and AI-powered systems.
- Ability to incorporate relevant keywords naturally while prioritizing readability, accuracy, structure, content quality, and the intended reader’s needs.

- Willingness to receive feedback, make revisions, and apply editorial guidance to improve future work.
- Proficiency in Google Workspace and Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
- Demonstrated ability to research, write, edit, and optimize content independently, from understanding a brief to submitting the final draft.
