SEEKING FREELANCER
REMOTE IS FINE
We are in Cupertino.
We are the team behind Mokriya Craigslist. Time, Wall Street Journal, Mashable, Xconomy, and a slew of tech bloggers raved about it. Check it out. <a href="http://craigslist.mokriya.com/" >
We are a team of engineers, UX designers, and thinkers. We have worked for some of the hottest tech startups in Silicon Valley, including Path, MixPanel, Threadflip, SimpleGeo, SideCar, etc.
Google has us on a list of "best mobile development teams in the country" so we get calls from them occasionally too.
About You
You're a Technical-Geek/Copywriter Hybrid. You are a technophile by nature, and love learning about and exploring new technologies. You don't have to be an engineer, but you should have a solid grasp of things like MVC, agile development, etc. If you know the other side of the shop (user-centered design), you get bonus points. Basically, you need to be able to speak intelligently about software development, specifically as it relates to Mobile.
Also, you should be very good at breaking down complicated ideas into bite-sized morsels of "oohhh, I get it" gooeyness. Our target audience are the business-people who make decisions about technologies to use inside of companies. The rare few are engineers. Most are not. If you can connect well with these people (the challenges of working inside a big co., getting projects out the door, playing the political games, etc.), then you will get more bonus points! :)
About the Work
We are creating a series of guides as a part of a larger content-marketing vision. The guides we write will cover topics like, "How to vet and hire a great mobility firm," "Best practices for creating a compelling mobile experience," "Advanced guide to understanding the cross-platform tools available", etc.
We have 2 full-time, awesome designers, who you will work closely with to make the pieces super-compelling. We will loosely borrow the style of these guides:

Looking forward to connecting. Email REDACTED_EMAIL to kick off a conversation.
Thanks, Adam
