UI/UX Copywriter (Arabic Speaker)

What You Will Do Write and structure end-to-end interface copy for government digital services across web and mobile, in Arabic and English. Translate research, service blueprints, and stakeholder requirements into content models, flows, and production-ready UI copy.

Build and maintain content patterns in the Dubai Design System (labels, error states, empty states, confirmations, notifications) and contribute new patterns back to it rather than writing one-offs.

Partner with designers in Figma to write in context, checking copy against real layouts, character limits, and component states rather than in a document. Work directly with UI/UX designers and front-end engineers through hand-off, implementation, and QA review of the built product. Write to WCAG 2.

2 AA from the start, covering plain-language clarity, alt text, error messaging, and screen reader announcements. Present and defend content decisions to stakeholders across government entities, including legal, policy, and service owners.

What We Are Looking For UX writing and content strategy (essential) Arabic and English bilingual writing experience, including RTL content and Arabic UI conventions. Expert-level: microcopy, content models, voice and tone systems, and writing for state, error, and edge cases.

Comfortable writing for and maintaining a shared content library rather than only writing one-off strings. Clean, well-structured content documentation and copy decks that another writer or designer can pick up without a walkthrough.

Arabic and English bilingual writing experience, including RTL content and Arabic UI conventions. Figma And Design Fluency (essential) Solid working knowledge of Figma: auto layout, component properties, variants, and how content sits inside constraints.

Understands component-based design thinking (states, composition, character limits) and can read a component to see why copy needs to change. Knows the cost of a content decision before proposing it, and can talk to designers and engineers in their terms.

Writing craft A portfolio showing clarity, structure, and restraint, not just polished sentences. Can explain why a piece of copy works, not only that it reads well. Attention to word-level craft, with judgement about when that level of detail matters.

Ways of working Handles ambiguity and shifting requirements without stalling. Communicates clearly in writing and in presentations. Takes feedback from stakeholders who are not writers and turns it into the underlying problem. Nice to have Public sector or large-scale enterprise product experience.

Accessibility work beyond compliance checklists, such as writing for assistive technology testing. Familiarity with content tooling, terminology databases, or version-controlled hand-off workflows.
