Content Creator

We are Skyward.


That is, a love for people, for improvement, for human advancement through information technology. We are a people-centered business with a desire to serve others. We are diverse and unified; creative and collaborative; a collection of complementary, not competing talents. And though on the surface we remain relaxed, beneath, a torrent of energy links us to our civic tech mission.


We stand by our values, and we won’t compromise on any of them.


Integrity: We’re conscientious, intentional, and empathetic. Our words and actions align. That’s our character. Please don’t ask us to play another part, we’re poor actors.   

Compassionate: If we may borrow a quote from Theodore Roosevelt: “No one cares how much you know until they know how much you care.” Because our team is thoughtful and supportive, caring deeply for each other, our clients, and our work, this comes naturally. 

Inquisitive: We remain students by failing openly and turning lessons into solutions.

Unconventional: For us, life isn’t what happens outside of work. Work happens inside of life and our culture erases the line often dividing the two.   

Authentic: Made possible only because we embody the values listed above. We’re relaxed and fun yet intensely curious and driven. Team members are placed with thought, care, and precision to ensure that Trust, Truth, and Transparency continue to represent our brand.


Because of that, we continue Onward, Upward, and Skyward.


We need a Content Creator.

Are you at your best when you are writing? Do you have a way with words and a passion for storytelling? We’re looking for a creative writer who is ready to dive in, craft compelling content, and help shape the voice of Skyward. If you’re ready to learn about government contracting and civic technology, and grow your skills in a dynamic environment, we want to hear from you. Apply now.


Come join us if you're motivated to learn from others, to learn from mistakes, to be part of a future-looking and growth-oriented team.


Let's go Skyward together.


What you'll do:
  • Develop compelling, compliant, and well-structured proposals in response to government and commercial Request for Proposals (RFPs), Request for Quotations (RFQs), and Request for Information (RFI). *Don’t worry if you don’t know what this is. You’ll learn!
  • Utilize and expand our existing content library to create compelling, accurate, and compliant proposal documents.
  • Create persuasive responses that align with customer requirements and emphasizes Skyward’s competitive strengths.
  • Build an understanding and knowledge of customer domains.
  • Conduct comprehensive market research and analysis to understand government requirements and align our responses with those needs.
  • Work closely with internal Skyward teams, including business development, technical experts, and project managers, to gather information and ensure proposals align with company capabilities and client requirements.
  • Assist in improving proposal writing processes and maintaining a repository of reusable proposal templates and content.


What we'd like you to have:
  • Bachelor’s degree in English, Communications, Marketing, or a related field.
  • Strong writing, editing, and communication skills.
  • Ability to work under pressure and meet tight deadlines.
  • Excellent research and analytical skills.
  • An interest in civic technology and government contracting.


What would blow us away:
  • You’ve had internships relating to marketing, communications, business development, or, even better, proposal writing.

Even if you don’t meet 100% of the qualifications, we encourage you to apply. At Skyward, we’re focused on hiring individuals with the right skills and passion to grow, not just checking off every box.


$40,000 - $60,000 a year
We know great work deserves great pay. That’s why we ensure our compensation is not only competitive but also fair and transparent, as required by Maryland law. Expect a salary that matches your skills, experience, and the value you bring to the table —because you’re worth it!

At Skyward, we believe diverse teams are the key to innovation and success. We are committed to creating an inclusive and equitable environment where everyone, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, or background, can thrive. We strongly encourage applications from women, people of color, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

 

We support flexible working hours and remote opportunities to help maintain a healthy work-life balance for all employees, including caregivers and those with unique needs.

 

Applicants must have the ability to obtain and maintain a Public Trust security clearance due to the nature of our work as a government contractor.

 

Offers of employment with Skyward are contingent upon acceptable results of a background investigation.
