Morphic is a project of Raising the Floor, a non-profit organization dedicated to helping ensure that everyone has access to information and communication technologies, including those who face barriers due to disability, literacy, digital literacy or aging.  https://morphic.org/about-us/

As the Marketing and Community Building Lead, you will be responsible for developing marketing strategy and materials for Morphic.

  • Research and engage with social networks to help better understand needs of potential users in order to convert them to customers
  • Help build a library of stories showing situations and needs that Morphic addresses
  • Participate as part of a team providing customer support

  • Excellent written communicator: You are a strong writer who excels at telling the story of a product and relaying its benefits to users and customers.

About  Morphic
Our mission with Morphic is to help make personal computers easier to use.  We believe that everyone, including those with disabilities as well as those who simply find today’s technology too confusing or difficult, should be able to access the many benefits computers have to offer.

Computers provide many with a connection to friends and family, a way to work from home or attend classes, and can be a critical way to access basic necessities and healthcare benefits that are not available to those who cannot understand or use computers. Our mission has taken on new meaning with the coronavirus and the role that computers have taken on in allowing people to stay connected to those around them during this difficult and unprecedented time.   Making computers easier so that all people are able to use them, at least for essential tasks, is at the heart of our mission. We encourage you to explore the information and videos on https://morphic.org/

  • Don't forget to email your resume and a cover letter to Jobs@morphic.org with the subject line “Marketing and Community Building Lead - Resume and Cover Letter.”
  • Based on your application materials, we will select applicants for remote interviews.
  • Raising the Floor is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We encourage people of all races, colors, religions, national origins, sexual orientations, genders, sexes, ages, abilities, branches of military service, and political party affiliations to apply.
