Senior Staff Content Designer

Our craft here is called Content Design, but maybe you’re a Content Strategist, UX Writer, or just someone who’s experienced and passionate about humanizing product experiences, untangling jargon, and who loves writing clear, concise content.

We’re empathetic people advocates. We're interested in what our clients need to know, and what they don't. We’re also simplifiers at heart. We  organize and present content in the most straightforward, useful, and inclusive way. And we’re not just wordsmiths (although we are good at that, too). We partner strategically with our product management and product design counterparts to shape client experiences.

Wealthfront empowers our clients to manage and grow their money, and our content gives them the clarity and confidence they need to do so.The right content, made accessible, empowers people to achieve their financial goals. 

We are looking for a master craftsperson who will be leading content for our investing products. This is a best-in-class Content Design leader who is a systems-thinker, exceptional writer, and passionate about solving problems of all sizes  and levels of complexity through the unique skill-set of content design. Although this is an Individual Contributor role, you will be a senior leader who sets the standard for content excellence at Wealthfront. You will uplevel other content designers through coaching and feedback. The quality of your own project work will set the bar for content.

You’ll be someone who shapes and leads content critiques, where you foster a culture of deep craft and critical thinking. You will support other content designers  learn how to improve and scale the impact of their work throughout the product development cycle. You’ll empower other content designers to develop clear rationale for their decisions and solutions. You will also introduce team members to content frameworks and ways of thinking about content design that help the team as a whole evolve their craft and strategic thinking. 

You’ll also collaborate very closely with cross-functional counterparts on product design, user research, product management, engineering, legal and compliance to solve some of the most complex challenges around our investing products. You’ll shape product experiences that solve for a more holistic set of investing needs and aim to improve the financial outcomes of people we serve.

You’ll also partner with our creative brand team to craft our brand voice and tone, and bring it to life across our product experiences. You’ll champion content that’s empowering, enlightening and authentic, but adjust tone based on where the client is in their journey.  

You should genuinely care for our mission to “build a financial system that favors people, not institutions” and be a zealous advocate for client needs. This genuine passion motivates you to proactively identify areas that require greater attention, bring solutions to address them and mobilize more people to prioritize the improvements. 

We’re a remote friendly team and open to candidates from both the US and Canada. We’re unapologetic word nerds, we love to experiment and challenge the status quo, and we approach everything with an open mind. Are you ready to immediately take on meaningful, strategic projects to shape experiences that help our clients navigate their financial situations? We’d love to hear from you!

Wealthfront started with the ambition to transform the investment advisory business, with the goal to unlock access to high quality investment advice for millions who were underserved by the traditional institutions. We built the first automated investment product that allows you to invest in a personalized portfolio of thousands of companies in seconds for a remarkably low fee; we then expanded into banking which made it remarkably easy for people to automate their finances end-to-end and eliminated the hassle of money management, all of which resulted in attracting more than $27 billion of our client’s hard earned savings, created the robo-advisor category and transformed the broader industry. And yet, we have a long way to go to achieve our mission to build a financial system that favors people, not institutions. 

Wealthfront’s vision is to make it delightfully easy to build long-term wealth on your own terms. This vision is more relevant than ever because millions more people are getting into the market early and investing their hard earned savings in a handful of stocks. While this is a great way to start, it is inconsistent with building long-term wealth. We want to empower young investors to expand their horizon, and easily explore and execute on a wider range of investing strategies, make informed investment decisions that are consistent with their values and beliefs while also making it effortless to grow and compound their savings exponentially, that’s transformational to their lives and their long-term future.
