Technical Editor (Contractor)

At Bishop Fox, security isn't just a job—it's our passion. As leaders in continuous offensive security and penetration testing, we deliver world-class customer experiences. Trusted by over a quarter of the Fortune 100, half of the Fortune 10, and top global media companies, we help safeguard digital landscapes. Our Cosmos platform, honored as Best Emerging Technology by SC Media, exemplifies our commitment to innovation. 

Joining Bishop Fox means collaborating with a curious and dedicated team. You'll tackle complex challenges for some of the world's most recognized organizations, securing their networks against real-world threats. With nearly 20 years of industry contributions—including 16 open-source tools and 50 security advisories published in the past five years—we're committed to making the digital world safer. 

We’re seeking a paid, part-time Technical Editor (15–20 hours/week) to partner with us on editing client-facing deliverables. This position is for remote work. 

Who You Are and What You’ll Do 

Editing and proofreading are not just 9-to-5 responsibilities for you — they are a way of life. Confidence in your editorial ability radiates from your ruthless red pen. At a glance, you can tell the difference between a single space and a double space (the horror!), no matter the font. Your editorial antennae are well-tuned, and no margin or punctuation mark gets past your inspection. Your communication skills — verbal, written, interpretative dance-related — are unparalleled. 

At Bishop Fox, you’ll be a trusted member of our growing and exciting editorial team. You will be tasked with inspecting our deliverables and collateral for quality content and formatting. Each day, you’ll work independently and steadfastly to meet stringent deadlines. Of course, these aren’t just any mundane reports or presentations. These deliverables encompass some of the coolest hacks in the industry; this is the sort of content you may have only otherwise encountered in headlines. As you proofread, you’ll learn about cybersecurity in a way most people will never experience. And, as the last set of eyes on deliverables before they go to our clients, you will play a crucial role in conveying our findings to some of the most important businesses in the world. 

Your Experience 

• At least two years of editorial, proofreading, writing, or communications experience 

• A preference for technical editing experience, particularly cybersecurity 

• An uncanny attention to detail 

• A degree in English, Journalism, Foreign Languages, or a related field 

• Extensive experience with Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel

• Top-notch time management skills; you respect deadlines 

• Outstanding prioritization skills 

• Flexibility and a willingness to sometimes work unusual hours 

• An outgoing and amicable personality 

• A team-player mindset and skin as thick as your favorite leather-bound book 

• A calm demeanor (you are an anchor in the storm) 

• Lots of self-motivation
