Content Writer (f/m/x)

About the role

As a content writer, you’ll be part of the marketing team at Decentriq. Your goal is to write genuinely useful content that helps our audience of (potential) customers better understand how to solve their biggest data collaboration challenges — and position us well in the process. To be successful, you’ll be hands-on, curious, collaborative, and happy to deliver high-quality content consistently.

Depending on your affinity, you might end up writing more for one of our verticals (media & advertising, healthcare & life sciences), or gravitate towards certain formats or channels. The marketing team is small and growing, so you can take an active part in shaping this role as time goes on.

You can work from our offices in Berlin or Zurich, or fully remote from anywhere based within Europe +/-2hrs CET.

About Decentriq

The most valuable data is often sensitive and restricted in how it can be used. Our Data Clean Rooms, a data collaboration platform based on a new privacy-enhancing technology called Confidential Computing, solves this by letting companies and organizations share without sharing — combining sensitive data and discovering new insights without ever exposing the raw data to the other party. Or to us. Or to the cloud provider.

Who uses our product? Our clean rooms power data collaboration in the world’s most privacy-conscious industries, including media (Goldbach), healthcare (Roche), banking (PostFinance) and the public sector (Swiss Army). Decentriq is a founding member of the Confidential Computing Consortium alongside Microsoft, Google, Meta, and Intel.

Our headquarters is in Zurich, but you can find us in Berlin, Barcelona, Amsterdam, and remote across Europe.
