Who we hire
We look for people who can hold two things at once: deep fluency in crypto and the discipline to explain it plainly to a reader who is smart but busy. Across editorial and engineering, the common thread is intellectual honesty — a willingness to say “we don’t know” and to correct a mistake in public.
- Reporters and editors with a real beat — markets, DeFi, protocols, adoption or regulation — and a track record of sourced, original work.
- Data engineers who can keep live market feeds and the prediction pipeline accurate, fast and failing safely.
- Product and design people who care about making complex data legible.
The standards you’d work to
Everyone at TheWeal works to the same published rules: named bylines, sourced claims, disclosed conflicts and holdings, predictions framed as scenarios rather than promises, and corrections made in the open. Read them in full in our editorial guidelines and ethics policy before you apply — they are the job, not the fine print.
Current openings
We hire continuously rather than in big waves, and we keep this list honest: when there is no specific role open, we say so. Right now we are accepting general applications and pitches from contributors in all five beats. We are particularly keen to hear from freelance reporters with first-hand on-chain or regulatory expertise.
How to apply
Send a short note about the beat you cover, two or three pieces of work you are proud of, and — for editorial roles — one thing the rest of crypto media gets wrong. Use our contact page and mark your message for the editor. We read every application from a real person and reply to those we want to take further.
TheWeal is an equal-opportunity employer. We assess people on the quality of their work and judgement, nothing else.
