Job description

Dorsia is an AI-native hospitality-tech company redefining access to the world's most coveted tables, events, and cultural moments. We give our members exclusive access and our operators unmatched control, visibility, and revenue.

We don't just provide access, we create it. Dorsia owns its luxury experiential events end-to-end, from the guest list to production and the technology behind every entrance. Through our enterprise platform, we're building the infrastructure layer for the future of hospitality, powering leading hotels and private member clubs with the same systems that run Dorsia.

We grew 480% in 2025 and today we operate across 400+ venues in 26 cities with revenue engines spanning consumer and enterprise membership, Dorsia Pay, the Culture Calendar, and our enterprise platform.

Backed by $54M from Index Ventures, Invus, Red Sea Ventures, Major Food Group, and MoonPay, we're scaling into our most consequential phase of growth. We're adding exceptional talent to drive what comes next, and that's where you come in.

About the Role

Dorsia is seeking a Copywriter to shape the words members encounter at every touchpoint, from the first push notification to the invitation for a one-night-only dinner. Sitting on the Creative Team, the Copywriter will write across lifecycle email, in-app surfaces, push, social, newsletters, and partner and event collateral, holding every line to the editorial standard behind Dorsia's brand storytelling. As our membership and Culture Calendar expand across 26 cities, the volume and range of copy is growing fast.

The Copywriter will build and run the agentic writing systems that carry one editorial voice across every channel at that scale, owning the voice context, agent workflows, and review loops that keep output quick and unmistakably Dorsia.

What You’ll Do

Lifecycle and Product Copy

• Write lifecycle emails and push notifications across the full member journey, from welcome and onboarding through re-engagement.
• Write in-app copy for screens, flows, modals, banners, empty states, error messages, and microcopy, editing directly in Figma with Design and Product.
• Compose transactional messages such as booking confirmations, reminders, cancellations, and receipts with precision and a consistent brand voice.
• Craft subject lines, preheaders, headlines, and CTAs that are concise, specific, and tuned to each channel.
• Orchestrate agents that generate, test, and iterate subject line, push, and in-app variants at scale, feeding performance data back into each new round.

Editorial, Social, and Partnerships

• Write and edit newsletters and recurring editorial features with the craft of published content.
• Write organic social captions and headlines that carry Dorsia's editorial point of view.
• Produce copy for event invitations and collateral, partner communications, and website pages.
• Write co-branded copy for restaurant and brand partners that honors each partner and stays unmistakably Dorsia.
• Pitch content ideas across channels and bring a sharp point of view to creative brainstorms.

Brand Voice and Collaboration

• Turn briefs from Marketing, Product, Design, Partnerships, and Events into clear, on-brand copy, with sound reasoning behind every choice.
• Present work in regular creative reviews with internal and external stakeholders and fold feedback into the next draft.
• Evolve the tone of voice guide, copy templates, and approved language as the brand expands into new cities and categories.
• Encode the voice guide and approved language into agent context and automated review checks so every draft ships on voice before it reaches an editor.
• Own final proofreading and QA across channels, confirming accuracy, consistency, and correct rendering before anything goes live.

The Winning Recipe

• Bachelor's degree in English, journalism, communications, marketing, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 2-4 years of experience in copywriting, editorial, or brand writing, ideally across both digital product and content channels.
• A portfolio that shows range across short and long form, functional and editorial copy, along with a proven ability to hold an established brand voice while shifting register from push notifications to newsletters.
• Hands-on fluency building and running agentic writing workflows, including multi-step agent pipelines, brand voice context, and evaluation loops that hold agent-drafted copy to an editorial standard.
• Working knowledge of Figma, Notion, and lifecycle and content management platforms.
• Meticulous attention to detail, steady judgment across a high volume of quick-turn and long-lead requests, and the confidence to defend a copy choice with clear reasoning.
• A real appetite for restaurants, dining, and cultural programming, and a refined ear for luxury hospitality.
• Experience in hospitality, food, culture, fashion, or luxury brand communications, a background in UX writing, or time at a publication with a defined editorial voice is a plus.

Workplace Philosophy at Dorsia

At Dorsia, we believe that culture eats strategy. The best ideas in the world mean nothing without the right people around the table and the right chemistry between them. We are, unapologetically, a people-first organization.

In-Person Matters

We’re creating once-in-a-lifetime experiences for the most discerning audience in the world. That doesn’t happen over Zoom. It happens through collisions: a spark across a desk, a kitchen-side conversation that unlocks a partnership, the energy of ideas felt, not typed. That’s why in-office culture is non-negotiable at Dorsia.

Who We Hire

We don’t subscribe to check-the-box hiring. We hire for merit and mindset, which naturally creates a team with varied backgrounds. What unites us isn’t demographics, it’s a shared vision: to build the social operating system for the cultural vanguard.

Lifestyle Hours

We’re not a 9-to-5 company. Our lifestyle mirrors our members. Early flights, after-work events, and late-night sprints when the work demands it. But we love what we do, and we definitely love a good party.

High Performance Culture

Working at Dorsia isn’t for everyone—and that’s the point. Our culture is designed for builders, not passengers. We move fast, set ambitious standards, and expect people to rise to them. If you have the talent and the drive, this will be a ride to remember.

A Final Word

We’re building something special. It will take long hours and relentless effort. It’s not for everyone. For those with the metabolism, you’ll create something that changes how culture is lived. And that’s the kind of work worth your life’s energy.
