Job Qualifications and Technical Skill Sets:
-
2+ years of experience in editing financial, legal, or business content. Experience in startup finance, venture capital, equity structures, and/or cryptocurrency is a huge plus but not required. However, you must be comfortable fact-checking and refining content in this space.
-
This includes understanding nuances of fundraising and venture capital financing, including SAFE notes, priced rounds, and pro-rata rights, as well as 409A valuation, secondary sales, cap tables, employee equity, and relevant tax law and compliance regulations.
-
-
Strong developmental editing, copy, and line editing abilities. You also include meticulous fact-checking skills in your editing to verify financial, legal, and regulatory claims.
-
Ability to simplify complex topics (e.g., SAFE notes, dilution modeling, 409A valuations). You can take these concepts and transform them into clear, engaging narratives for a mixed audience of financial experts, startup founders, and employees.
-
Familiarity with cap table management tools and equity software is a plus.
-
Time management and organizational skills. You always meet your deadlines—or communicate in advance when you may need a deadline pushed back.
-
A passion for startups, venture capital, cryptocurrency, and financial storytelling. You stay updated with industry trends and enjoy making complex topics digestible. You also exhibit excellent written and verbal communication skills, as well as healthy analytical and critical thinking skills.
-
Ability to provide clear, actionable feedback to writers while maintaining a positive, constructive approach.
-
SEO experience. You’re not new to marketing and understand the various considerations that inform a piece of SEO content. You know how to help writers search-optimize their content without sacrificing quality, and can balance the needs of both your client and reader.
-
Positive attitude. You’re kind, passionate, curious, and friendly! You’re open to exploring new ideas, staying updated on trending topics in the venture-backed financial space, and are passionate about crafting excellent content. You welcome feedback and love learning how to improve your craft.
-
Experience with both print and digital media formats. You’re also proficient in word processor programs such as Microsoft Word and Google Docs and PDF software such as Adobe Acrobat.
Other Preferred Qualifications:
-
Experience editing in a B2B SaaS, fintech, or venture-backed startup environment.

-
Understanding of crypto-based equity compensation and alternative financing models.
