Description
The App Store Editor will work within a team of app experts to research, test, curate, and create content for new app releases and major updates. As a team, we engage in healthy debate over what to feature and where. Our recommendations drive programs such as App of the Day, Editors' Choice, and along with our Games and International colleagues, the App Store Awards. This Editor will work cross-functionally with App Store Business, Marketing, and Production teams as well as external developer partners to track roadmaps, organize upcoming priorities, and identify trends and content opportunities. We aim to ensure users know the most exciting things happening with apps at all times. With a focus on expanding Editorial reach and growing the App Store's impact for the developer community, a successful candidate will have experience in data analysis and other growth-related skills. We're looking for a combination of critical thinking and problem solving skills, A/B testing, SEO, subscription retention and acquisition, Excel (especially working with large data sets), and previous experience with content analytics tools.
