We're hiring a native Japanese-speaking content editor and writer to edit and create long‑form content in Japanese for our B2B SaaS clients. This is a freelance position. Most of the work will be editing and refining LLM‑generated drafts so they read naturally, accurately, and persuasively for Japanese professional audiences. You'll also write original content from scratch when a project calls for it.

You'll work closely with our editorial team to produce well‑researched, engaging, AEO and SEO‑optimized content that drives results.

We're ideally looking for someone based between GMT-0 and GMT+9, so you can collaborate easily with our Japan and EU teams. We may be open to other time zones for the right candidate.

If you're a native Japanese speaker with a sharp editorial eye, you're comfortable working with AI‑generated content, and you enjoy digging into complex topics, we'd love to hear from you.

• Write high‑quality, long‑form content in Japanese from scratch across a variety of B2B, SaaS, and technical topics. You'll create informative, engaging, and well‑researched content for professional audiences in the Japanese market.

• Localize content for Japanese readers, not just translate it. You know how Japanese business audiences expect information to be structured, framed, and supported, and you'll adapt examples, tone, and references to match.

• Use our internal briefs to structure and outline articles clearly and effectively. Our briefs give direction, and you'll bring clarity, logic, and structure to each piece.

• Incorporate keywords and AEO/SEO best practices without compromising readability or quality. You'll balance search optimization with a natural, audience‑first style that fits Japanese search behavior.

• Adapt your style to match the voice and tone of different client brands. You're comfortable moving between registers, including appropriate use of keigo, depending on the brand and audience.

• Collaborate with our Japan and EU editorial teams across time zones. You'll revise and refine content based on feedback and communicate clearly with the…
