Would you be interested in writing articles that help people understand and prevent heart disease?
90% of heart disease is preventable, but it remains the #1 cause of death, claiming more lives annually than all cancers combined. At Veevo Health, our mission is to build a future free of heart disease.
We are looking for two founding health content writing interns to help us create clear, engaging, actionable educational blog articles on preventive heart health. You will research SEO heart health topics and write educational articles for Veevo Health.
This role is ideal for aspiring health journalism writers. You do not need to be a medical expert. You do need to be curious, a fast learner, and able to explain complex ideas in clear, engaging language.
A note on AI: it's your friend. It's a tool. Use it for research, outlining, and drafting, but the final edits should have a human touch, stay on the topic, and carry your voice. A tool should elevate quality and rigor, not compromise.
Responsibilities
- Research topics where we can stand out and provide meaningful heart health education to readers.
- Write clear, engaging educational blog articles, usually ~1,000 to 2,000 words, with occasional deeper guides when the topic needs it.
- Use AI tools thoughtfully for outlining, drafting, and editing.
- Verify every medical claim against credible sources.
- Translate complex topics into plain English for non-medical readers.
- Revise drafts based on editorial and clinical-review feedback.
Qualifications
- You are studying or recently studied journalism, health journalism, public health, biology, pre-med, science writing, English, communications, or a related field.
- You write clearly and can explain complex ideas simply.
- You are comfortable using AI tools, but are not willing to compromise on quality.
- You care about preventive health, longevity, public health, or cardiovascular disease.
- You can take feedback and improve a draft quickly.
- You want your work to have real-world impact.
