Full Job Posting
What You'll Be Doing
Your days will be anything but monotonous. On any given week you might be:
Reviewing and polishing congressional briefings, articles, and correspondence before they go out the door — catching every grammatical hiccup, style inconsistency, and factual gap along the way
Collaborating with writers and visual information specialists to sharpen readability, tighten tone, and make complex content accessible to a wide range of audiences
Ensuring everything follows the right style guide — AP Style for corporate content, DIA's Correspondence Guide for formal correspondence
Digging into research to verify facts, dates, and sources, and helping writers find the right contacts and references for their stories
Supporting social media content, web copy, exhibits, and multimedia productions — because good editing doesn't stop at print
Attending weekly team syncs and project meetings to stay plugged into what's coming down the pipeline
Submitting monthly project status reports to keep leadership in the loop
Required:
Active TS/SCI with CI Poly
Demonstrated experience in technical editing and writing, preferably in a government, defense, or intelligence community environment
Expert command of AP Style and formal government correspondence standards
Strong research skills with the ability to verify facts, dates, statistics, and source accuracy
Proven ability to manage multiple high-visibility projects simultaneously under tight deadlines
Excellent written and spoken English communication skills
Desired:
Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a team environment
Meticulous attention to detail with the ability to handle repetitive, methodical work
Familiarity with DoD, DIA, CIO, and Information Assurance (IA) regulations, instructions, and policies (preferred)
