About Content Design at Wealthfront
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. 

About this role
We are looking for a Content Designer, solid in both craft and strategic thinking,  who is excited to bring their skills to conceptualizing new products from the ground up as well as enhancing the value of our existing products. You will lead Content Design for our Cash product and work in lock-step with a cross-functional team end-to-end on all sizes of problems to deliver product experiences that inspire healthy financial behaviors and make money management effortless. 
You’ll collaborate very closely with cross-functional counterparts on product design, user research, product management, engineering, legal and compliance. You’ll leverage your content expertise to influence large and small decisions that lead to best-in-class client experiences while also leading to greater business impact. 
You must be exceptional at the craft of UX writing and care deeply about the details, but are also a systems-thinker. You’re interested in understanding client behavior and are motivated to craft content that speaks to clients emotionally, as well as rationally. You’re comfortable presenting to senior stakeholders and can clearly articulate the rationale behind your decisions, or tradeoffs. You are proud of your copy docs and your figma files because they are emblematic of the love you have for your craft. 
You’ll be expected to identify and drive content-led initiatives that are relevant,  aligned with the product and company strategy, and are important priorities on the roadmap.
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. 

The mindset that excels at Wealthfront:

  • Someone who embraces complexity, loves engaging in intellectually rigorous discussions, critically evaluates trade-off, both from a customer and business perspective
  • Someone who turns ambiguity into clarity and navigates the organization to drive alignment
  • Someone who consistently thinks about the company and team first and has the resilience to work tough situations, steps up and leads the team 
  • Someone who is enterprising and also demonstrates high agency. You don’t wait for change but instead move with urgency and come to the table with proposals on how to improve
  • Someone who deeply cares about learning and growing with the company

Relevant experiences we’d like to see. Ideally, you have:

  • 5-6+ years of experience as an individual contributor
  • A collaborative mindset, with experience working across disciplines and with multiple stakeholders (ex: product and marketing managers, UX and visual designers, and engineers)
  • The ability to think strategically and shape the user experience overall, beyond just content
  • A self-starter with the ability to manage multiple projects across teams and navigate ambiguity
  • Confidence working in an iterative, agile environment, and can quickly tailor and design effective, appropriate content approaches within constraints
  • Experience working in consumer tech companies shipping exceptional quality products in a fast paced environment
  • A portfolio that demonstrates how a range of content challenges, solutions to which led to clear and streamlined customer experiences for web and mobile
  • Solid understanding of content standards and best practices for web and mobile interfaces
  • An eye for the details and an interest in the finer points of wordsmithery
  • Proficiency with design tools such as Figma, Sketch, InVision, etc
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.
