 </li>
 <li>
 Own clip-farming workflows: identifying moments, shaping hooks, tightening pacing and packaging content for maximum reach.

 Experience designing thumbnails and social assets using Photoshop and/or Illustrator.

 Some exposure to AI tools is a plus.

Director of Development and Partnerships

FWI (FedWriters, Inc.)

<div>
 
 Overview
 
 
 
 Do you get a quiet thrill from catching a misplaced comma? Does a poorly structured briefing keep you up at night? Do you believe that clear, compelling communication can actually change outcomes, even at the highest levels of government?
 
 
 If so, we might be your people.
 
 
 FWI is supporting the Defense Intelligence Agency's (DIA) Office of Corporate Communications (OCC), the team responsible for how one of the nation's most important intelligence agencies talks to Congress, the public, and its own workforce. And right now, we need a sharp, detail-obsessed Technical Editor/Writer to help us make sure every word we put out is accurate, polished, and on point. This isn't a "track changes and move on" kind of role. You'll be embedded in a fast-moving, mission-driven environment where what you edit today could brief a senator tomorrow. The work is varied, the stakes are real, and the team is genuinely good at what they do.
 
 
 FWI has been recognized as a Top Workplace by the Washington Post in 2024 and 2025, offering excellent growth opportunities in a collaborative environment.

 </li>
 <li>
 Collaborating with writers and visual information specialists to sharpen readability, tighten tone, and make complex content accessible to a wide range of audiences
 </li>
 <li>
 Ensuring everything follows the right style guide &mdash; AP Style for corporate content, DIA's Correspondence Guide for formal correspondence
 </li>
 <li>
 Digging into research to verify facts, dates, and sources, and helping writers find the right contacts and references for their stories
 </li>
 <li>
 Supporting social media content, web copy, exhibits, and multimedia productions &mdash; because good editing doesn't stop at print
 </li>
 <li>
 Attending weekly team syncs and project meetings to stay plugged into what's coming down the pipeline
 </li>

 Submitting monthly project status reports to keep leadership in the loop
