You have a strong understanding of Spanish grammar, spelling, and style rules, with the ability to apply them confidently. You know when to rely on formal conventions and when to adapt for clarity, tone, or branding.
You have 2+ years of experience editing B2B, SaaS, or technical/SEO content. You’ve worked with industry-focused content and know how to adapt edits for professional and technical audiences.
You’re meticulous. You’re detail-obsessed and ensure every sentence is clean, correct, and in the right voice—nothing slips past you.
You seek feedback. You value collaboration and always look for ways to improve your craft and better serve clients.
You believe in punctuality. Deadlines are non-negotiable for you, and you proactively communicate if timelines shift.
