About Simply.TV

At Simply.TV, we're redefining how the world experiences TV metadata. As a leading provider of advanced, AI-driven metadata solutions, we empower broadcasters, streaming platforms, and telecom operators to deliver smarter, more engaging content discovery experiences. From next-gen EPG (Electronic Program Guide) data to rich content enrichment, we enable our partners to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving media landscape.

Headquartered in Copenhagen, but supported by 300+ employees worldwide, our data fuels user interfaces that are used by millions of viewers every day — and we’re just getting started. Whether you're passionate about media technology, data engineering, or product innovation, Simply.TV is the place to shape the future of TV — and have fun doing it.

Join us, and let’s make content discovery simple, powerful, and inspiring!

The Role

At Simply.TV, we believe that great metadata is what separates a good TV experience from a world-class one. As a Program Synopsis Writer, you'll play a hands-on role in making that happen — researching and writing program descriptions, proofreading for accuracy and consistency, and maintaining our ever-growing content database to the highest editorial standards. You'll collaborate closely with a team that cares deeply about quality, move fast without cutting corners, and take real ownership of the data you deliver. If you're detail-obsessed, love the world of TV and streaming, and want your work to reach millions of viewers through the operators we serve — you'll feel right at home here.

Requirements

You are successful when:

  • You have researched missing television program synopses using broadcaster and official source materials, ensuring full understanding of content requirements.
  • You have reviewed, proofread, and edited synopsis content to ensure accuracy in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and US English standards.
  • You have verified all program descriptions for factual correctness, completeness, and editorial consistency before entry.
  • You have created, updated, and entered synopsis records into internal systems.
  • You have identified gaps, inconsistencies, and duplicates in program metadata and resolved them through research and correction.
  • The data delivered is accurate, complete, consistent, and error-free, meeting quality standards and deadlines.

Please note that training will be provided on US English editorial and language standards.

Qualifications

You'll thrive in this role if you:

  • Have a university degree in a relevant area, e.g. English, Journalism, Mass Communication, Business, Data, or a related field.
  • Have excellent proofreading and editing skills with strong attention to detail
  • Work very structured, and are so detail oriented that you can spot errors from a mile away
  • Love working at a fast pace
  • Are very comfortable with data search, computers, and databases
  • Get energy from learning something new and making yourself better every day
  • Have great collaborative skills that make others love working with you
  • Are passionate about our product and what great metadata can do
  • Show a strong willingness to get your hands dirty and a strong drive to succeed
  • Are able to thrive in a fast-paced environment where no day is the same
  • Want to grow a career in Simply.TV
