Teamwork makes the stream work.

Roku is changing how the world watches TV

Roku is the #1 TV streaming platform in the US, and we've set our sights on powering every television in the world. Roku pioneered streaming to the TV. Our mission is to be the TV streaming platform that connects the entire TV ecosystem. We connect consumers to the content they love, enable content publishers to build and monetize large audiences, and provide advertisers unique capabilities to engage consumers.

From your first day at Roku, you'll make a valuable - and valued - contribution. We're a fast-growing public company where no one is a bystander. We offer you the opportunity to delight millions of TV streamers around the world while gaining meaningful experience across a variety of disciplines.

About the role

Are you obsessed with the latest tech? Do you get just as excited over a snappy headline as a shocking twist in your latest binge-watch? Do you have a staunch opinion on the Oxford comma and friends who are tired of hearing about it? Let’s chat. We’re looking for an experienced copywriter with a flair for the creative to join the Roku Creative Studio team. Your mission is to write clear, impactful copy that stands out and motivates people to act. The ideal candidate seamlessly blends personality with product or service benefits, often distilling detailed information into as few words as possible.

What else... right, you’ll need to be organized and manage multiple tasks at once, prioritizing to meet deadlines. Experience with financial products, fintech, or e-commerce is cool but not required. Most importantly, we want someone with true passion for copy and seeing it come to life in ways that impact millions of people on a daily basis. Sound good?

What you will be doing

  • Write and edit copy for different environments including email, web, video, and more
  • Collaborate with the Copy Manager, designers, and cross-functional teams to ensure copy is clear, impactful, and meets both user and business needs
  • Own your business area, completing your projects on time with a high degree of autonomy and attention to detail
  • Be a proactive communicator with a positive attitude
  • Receive and implement feedback effectively
  • Embrace the tone and personality of the Roku brand and bring it to life in new, exciting ways
  • Have fun and be creative

We are excited if you have

  • 3-5 years of copywriting experience with an emphasis on product marketing
  • A strong portfolio demonstrating your ability to write for different brands and channels
  • Well-rounded writing background including email, video, web, and digital
  • Self-editing ability to fine-tune impactful copy in as few words as possible
  • Familiarity simplifying complex terms or ideas into casual, everyday language
  • Ability to receive feedback and use it constructively
  • Affinity for Oxford commas and em-dashes
  • Excellent verbal, presentation, and written communication skills
  • Enthusiasm for streaming, TV, and tech

The Roku Culture

Roku is a great place for people who want to work in a fast-paced environment where everyone is focused on the company's success rather than their own. We try to surround ourselves with people who are great at their jobs, who are easy to work with, and who keep their egos in check. We appreciate a sense of humor. We believe a fewer number of very talented folks can do more for less cost than a larger number of less talented teams. We’re independent thinkers with big ideas who act boldly, move fast and accomplish extraordinary things through collaboration and trust. In short, at Roku you'll be part of a company that's changing how the world watches TV.

We have a unique culture that we are proud of. We think of ourselves primarily as problem-solvers, which itself is a two-part idea. We come up with the solution, but the solution isn't real until it is built and delivered to the customer. That penchant for action gives us a pragmatic approach to innovation, one that has served us well since 2002.
