SoFi is looking for an enthusiastic and experienced writer/editor hybrid to help support production of On the Money, our flagship personal finance newsletter, as well as future newsletters. On the Money cuts through the noise of day-to-day financial news to bring readers a more thoughtful point of view on what’s important to their bottom line.
Reporting to the Deputy Newsletter Editor, the Senior Newsletter Editor will be responsible for nurturing and producing high quality stories that educate, inform, and inspire our audience. We are a mission-driven team that cares deeply about financial literacy and helping people fulfill their ambitions. The ideal candidate is an experienced wordsmith with a nose for news and experience covering the economy, investing, and financial products. They should be a resourceful, detail-oriented multi-tasker capable of not just writing, researching, and fact-checking, but embracing the technical aspects of assembling a newsletter.
Candidates with at least three years of experience editing for a top-tier news outlet or personal finance newsletter are preferred. This is a full-time contract position.
What you’ll do
- Edit stories: You will support our small but mighty team of writers at every stage (i.e. brainstorming story ideas, making structural suggestions, getting into the weeds of a line edit).
- Write stories: This includes identifying newsworthy trends and topics, researching them to develop expertise on the fly, and delivering polished, compelling copy. You will have an opportunity to leverage AI responsibly and creatively to drive story development and accelerate and enhance our workflow.
- Support the editorial pipeline: You will help ensure that everything we publish is well-written, thoughtful, 100% factual, objective, and compelling (with bonus points for funny).
- Collaborate and cooperate: Putting out a newsletter is a team sport, and you will need to cultivate great relationships with writers, other editors, our compliance team, and cross-functional partners from across the organization. Good news: They’re all great!
Who you are
- Ideally, a journalist with experience covering personal finance news.
- Passionate about financial literacy and committed to producing excellent work.
- Versed in financial products and services.
- Capable of managing every stage of the editorial process, including collaboration with legal and compliance functions.
- Organized enough to keep multiple projects moving forward simultaneously.
- Comfortable giving and receiving candid, constructive feedback.
- Committed to bringing positivity, empathy, and respect to every interaction.

What We Do
SoFi wasn’t built to be a bank. Or a technology company. We were built for one mission: help people achieve financial independence so they can realize their ambitions. Redefining an entire industry isn’t easy work—and it’s not for the faint of heart. It takes a certain kind of team. People with diverse perspectives and expertise, united by a common sense of purpose. People willing to challenge assumptions but always do the right thing. People proving that innovation and responsibility don’t have to compete, but can come together to create something truly unconventional in the world. For the last eight years, we’ve been charting this new path forward. We call it The SoFi Way. At SoFi, we don’t just talk about culture: we live it. The SoFi Way is how we show up every day, how we make decisions, and how we build for our members, clients, and each other.
Why Work With Us

We’re a next-generation Fintech company using innovative, mobile-first technology to help our members reach their goals.
