This is a freelance position, compensation will be built on a "Per article" basis
Titan is the rebel challenger in a very old industry. The present era is run by ancient players: Fidelity, Schwab, & Goldman Sachs. The problem is that none of them were built on modern rails and have horrible user experiences. There have been new things built (think: “investing apps”). They are either 1) gimmicky casinos or 2) sleepy commodities. We won’t say names. Why hasn’t anyone built a modern Goldman Sachs for everyone? That’s our mission.
Titan is a next-generation investment firm. We aspire to lead our generations’ wealth.
We are fighters at heart. We fight to build products that are truly democratized. For example, we launched the first institutional grade cash management product open to everyday investors via Titan Smart Cash. We launched the first ever Venture fund for everyday investors in partnership with Cathie Wood’s ARK. We’ve been able to raise significant capital from some of Silicon Valley’s best, like a16z and General Catalyst.
Now let’s talk about you. We’re highly selective with who we choose to bring onto the team, but if you resonate with the above, we’d love to meet you.
Role Overview
As our Investment Writer, you'll work closely with our team of leading investment professionals to transform their latest on-the-ground insights into captivating, approachable, and engaging written analysis.
You will be responsible for producing short-form, news cycle driven content, and lead the curation of our daily newsletter sent to hundreds of thousands of engaged clients.
Our coverage universe is wide and leans heavily toward the themes and companies that will have the most impact on transforming and shaping our collective futures - from seed-stage startups to multi-billion dollar technology giants. We focus heavily on unearthing the hidden implications that drive important consumer and investment outcomes, and focus less on headline repetition and noise.
The ideal candidate will be deeply passionate about business writing and harnessing the power of the written word to empower everyday investors with "behind the curtain" insights that are typically reserved for Wall Street insiders.

Strong familiarity with or background in investing, business, or technology
Passionate about bringing access to historically guarded investment insights to a diverse and underserved audience of everyday readers and investors

Comfort iterating quickly in deadline-driven environments
