Credit Karma is a mission-driven company, focused on championing financial progress for our more than 100 million members in the U.S., Canada and U.K. While we're best known for pioneering free credit scores, our members turn to us for tips as they work on their financial goals, including helping them monitor their credit, identity monitoring, searching for credit cards, shopping for loans (car, home and personal), filing their taxes with Credit Karma Tax and growing their savings* -- all for free. Credit Karma has grown significantly through the years: we've added more than 70 million members in the last five years alone and now have more than 1,100 employees across our offices in San Francisco, Charlotte, Los Angeles, Leeds, London and soon Oakland.

Ideally, you’re a UX designer who happens to use words as your design language. If you care as much about how screens flow into each other as you do what the words on them say, you’ll fit right in. We spend as much time perfecting our internal positioning as we do our user facing copy, and believe in showing the math behind our work. If you love being a specialist in writing and user experience and you want to make experiences that improve people’s lives, we’d love to talk to you!

What you'll do:

  • Write UI copy for Credit Karma’s product (web + mobile).
  • Articulate the strategy around your copy in compelling ways.
  • Treat content as equal parts art and science: showing and inviting people in on your strategy and how words seek problems is a creative endeavor that is improved by an excellent process.
  • Develop a vision for your product area and help the team build toward it.
  • Drive alignment between partners, serving as the capable storyteller who can articulate why any given project fundamentally matters to our users or to the business.
  • Collaborate with product designers, product managers, researchers, and engineers to bring your creations to life.

What’s great about the role:

  • As a company we’re offering free tools to people that helps them to improve their financial lives.
  • As a team we are bringing clarity to users around how they can use these tools -- is fundamental to the company’s success.
  • We are a relatively new team within the company, so the landscape is wide open in terms of defining the best ways to work and ways to influence product definition.
  • You own not only the language of the features you’re responsible for, but the broader future that these experiences help people achieve.
  • You have a built-in audience of 100 million+ people who rely on our product for help.

Additional experience you bring:

  • At least 5 years content strategy experience
  • Experience working in UX (with designers or product managers)
  • Ability to work in a fast paced environment
  • Handle a fair amount of autonomy, as your manager is likely will be in a different office
  • Good social skills – ability to give and take constructive criticism
  • Strong opinions on how content fits into great products
