As the Germany News & Localization Manager at Bitcoin.com, you own the company's presence in the German market across three areas: producing timely, locally relevant news content; ensuring the German site is properly localized rather than merely translated; and monitoring German market performance to inform the company's future investment decisions. This hybrid role combines news writing with local market leadership, and since Germany is Bitcoin.com's first market of this kind, your approach may become the template for future regional hires.
What you'll do
- Write and publish 3-4 news articles per day in German, covering crypto, finance, tech, and AI developments relevant to the German market. Content must be genuinely newsworthy and locally sourced from German and EU developments, regulatory activity, and market-specific angles, not translated wire copy.
- Own the quality of the German site's localization. Regularly review the localized UI (navigation, buttons, static and product pages, error messages) for accuracy, natural phrasing, and cultural fit. Flag issues and coordinate fixes with relevant teams, and proactively suggest improvements tailored to the German market.
- Track and report on key performance indicators for the German market, including organic traffic, keyword rankings for German search terms, on-page engagement metrics (time on page, bounce rate), and article-level performance. Use this data to inform content strategy and help leadership evaluate the German market's potential against other regions.
- Stay current on the German crypto, fintech, and regulatory landscape, including BaFin and EU/MiCA developments as they apply locally. Monitor German competitor content and topics trending with your audience.

- Strong sourcing and verification skills, using primary sources such as official filings, press releases, public statements, regulatory documents, on-chain data, and verified social media posts
