Wealthfront is looking for a Senior Content Designer to join the money movement team within our Cash product—our much-loved high-yield savings and checking experience. Cash is the hub of Wealthfront’s financial ecosystem. Clients love it for its instant money movement, joint account access, and the way it simplifies earning more with their cash. This role reports directly to the Cash Design Director and is built for a designer who is energized by simplifying complexity and crafting clear, delightful experiences for our clients.
Wealthfront pioneered automated investing by offering broad access to sophisticated investing strategies at a fraction of the cost of traditional financial advisers. That formed the beginning of a much broader vision for how our products can serve our mission to build a financial system that favors people over institutions. Since then, we’ve continued to expand the ways we help our clients build long-term wealth through saving, investing, and more.
As a Senior Content Designer on the Cash team, you will be a key part of expanding how we help clients build long-term wealth by improving our money movement experiences. The Move team crafts all of the surfaces that enable our clients to access and deploy their cash in the Wealthfront ecosystem and beyond. You won't be designing in a silo; you’ll be connecting the dots between Cash and the broader Wealthfront ecosystem to create a seamless financial home.
Designers at Wealthfront transform complex financial technology into simple and delightful experiences. Our commitment to our clients and high bar for craft set us apart from traditional financial institutions—fostering trust with our clients and empowering them to build lasting wealth on their own terms.
We pride ourselves on our meticulous attention to detail, consistently striving for excellence in all areas of our craft. We place just as much emphasis on the words we use to communicate with our clients as we do the interactive elements of our experiences. This shows up in our team structure: we have nearly a 1:1 ratio of content designers to product designers. Design plays an important role in the success of our business and we are active participants in various leadership forums.
Collaboration is at the core of our approach. We work closely with our counterparts in engineering, product management, research, data science, legal, and compliance to define opportunities and explore solutions. We are equal partners in making strategic decisions and defining impactful roadmaps. We embrace a culture of continuous learning and prioritize the magnitude of our successes over the percentage of times we are successful.
Most importantly, we love what we do! We are passionate about our mission, the financial technology space, and our clients. We take pride in our high bar, low ego culture.
