Since then we've hired LessWrong user cata. And it occurred to us that the LessWrong community is not only full of software engineers, it's also full of unusually strong writers.
Job Description
Help write and edit content to professional standards. For example:
Documents and slides for pitches to potential partners
White papers
Employee handbook
Internal style guide

This is a full-time position in our Palo Alto, California office with competitive compensation and benefits.
To apply, email some Bayesian evidence that you're a good match to jobs@quixey.com, such as your LessWrong user profile. (It's hard to imagine evidence that wouldn't be screened off by a writing sample.)
Added: We're also interested to test a contract writer. Please email us if you want to do that, too.
You aren't saying anything I haven't told myself many times. But if I had fixed my akrasia and learned Python, do you think I'd still be busy here? Writing is at least something I don't have much problem doing.
