About the role SoFi is launching a weekly crypto newsletter for everyday investors interested in crypto ownership, long-term investing, and the future of finance. We are seeking a Deputy Editor to lead this editorial franchise and serve as a primary crypto editorial voice for SoFi — overseeing the newsletter's voice, curation, aesthetic, and execution, while also developing a broader portfolio of crypto education content across formats. This is an opportunity to build a unique editorial franchise at the first and only nationally chartered bank where consumers can bank, borrow, invest, and buy, sell, and hold crypto. This role is ideal for a journalist with deep crypto subject matter expertise — someone who can report authoritatively on markets, regulation, and infrastructure — and the editorial instincts to translate that expertise into a must-read weekly. Equally important is a fluency with AI-assisted tools: you'll design and operate workflows that use AI to accelerate research, sourcing, and production, while ensuring every word published is human-reported, human-written, and human-edited. This is not an AI-generated newsletter. It's a human one, built by someone who knows how to use every tool available. SoFi’s mission is to help people get their money right. The Educational Content team’s role is to show them how through content that’s credible, relatable, and empowering. We believe financial literacy unlocks ambition, and we build resources that help members feel confident about both their money and the products they use to manage it. This is a full-time contract position.
