Comedian + Copywriter
Why we exist:
More than 80% of Americans own a car and see it as a fundamental necessity, yet the experience of owning one is stuck in the 90s. Every part of the user journey (shopping for a car, insurance, repairs, etc.) is complicated, fragmented, and time-consuming, and the costs are staggering. At Jerry , we are building the first app to manage it all and make car ownership simple, transparent, and affordable.
Why we need you:
Redditors can smell a corporate ad from a mile away and will downvote low-effort marketing into oblivion. But when someone breaks down how car insurance premiums are actually calculated, or writes a step-by-step guide on negotiating a used car purchase, r/personalfinance and r/whatcarshouldibuy pay attention.
We need a Reddit Copywriter/Comedian who lives and breathes textual storytelling. You won't be writing marketing copy—you’ll be writing high-value, educational, human text posts that turn complex financial and automotive topics into top-voted Reddit threads. You know how to capture sub-culture tone, write hooky titles, and turn technical jargon into clear, engageable prose.
What you'll own:
-
Reddit Content Creation: Create genuinely helpful and entertaining content for relevant subreddits such as r/carinsurancehelp, r/mechanicadvice, r/idiotsincars, and r/frugal as well as Jerry 's own subreddits.
-
Mastery of Reddit Voice: Craft long-form and short-form copy that bypasses corporate fluff, using tone, formatting, and structure that feels native, authentic, and upvote-worthy.
-
Thread Engagement Copy: Draft real-time, high-context replies to community comments and inquiries, balancing helpful expertise with a grounded, conversational voice.
-
Content Experimentation: Test different narrative hooks, post structures (TL;DRs, bulleted breakdowns, case studies), and post timings to maximize organic reach and community trust.
-
SEO & LLM Optimization: Write comprehensive, search-optimized Reddit copy designed to index well on Google search and serve as cited reference material for AI models.
-
Collaborative Messaging: Work alongside the Content, SEO, and Product teams to adapt broader company insights into Reddit-first copy without losing brand accuracy.
Who you are:
-
A Reddit-First Writer: You are an active Reddit user with a deep library of work showing you can write for the platform. You understand post formatting, sub-culture nuances, and what makes a thread go viral versus what gets ignored.
-
3+ Years of Copywriting Experience: Proven track record writing short- and long-form copy, ideally within fintech, insurtech, automotive, or consumer tech.
-
Translator of Complexity: You can take "boring," confusing, or frustrating topics (insurance policies, rate hikes, vehicle maintenance) and make them clear, useful, and compelling to read.
-
Obsessed with Value: You write to inform and help first, knowing that transparent, high-value writing builds more long-term brand equity than pushy calls-to-action.
-
Feedback-Resilient: You welcome raw feedback from both internal teams and public comments, using community reactions to refine and improve your writing style.
