Careers

Two roles are open.

Readlock is a small team, so both roles are broad and involve the whole app. To apply, send us work you are proud of. A portfolio or a few sample pages is plenty.

Story Copywriter

You adapt the ideas in a book into narrative chapters that a reader can still retell a week later.

Responsibilities

  • Select the core ideas from a source book that will carry a skillbook
  • Adapt each idea into a chapter with named characters, stakes, and consequences
  • Write the questions, estimates, and reflection prompts placed between sections
  • Maintain a clear, grounded prose style throughout
  • Hold a consistent voice across a skillbook and across the wider library

UX/UI Designer with Animations

You design the screens and motion that give Readlock its sense of place.

Responsibilities

  • Design screens within the established pixel art system
  • Animate key moments: screen transitions, sprite frames, and responses to a tap
  • Specify timing, easing, and frame counts precisely enough to build from directly
  • Extend the design tokens as new patterns require
  • Prioritise reading, with motion that supports the chapter a reader is in
