Content Marketer

At Zoya, we're building software that helps the nearly two billion Muslims of the world align their faith with their finances. We're best known for pioneering free shariah compliance screening data that enables over 100k+ Muslim investors worldwide to build and monitor a halal investment portfolio with confidence and clarity. Despite being such a large portion of the global population, the Muslim market has largely been neglected by conventional fintechs. We've launched a mobile app that allows users to research equities and help them ensure their investments are aligned with their values, but that's just the starting point. We're looking to launch features around portfolio management, trading/investing, zakat/charity, and other areas of personal finance this year. We are a well-capitalized, VC-backed startup. Our team is 100% remote and comes with experience across the tech and finance landscape from companies such as Amazon, Bloomberg, and JPMorgan. **If you join us, you’ll be an early team member in helping shape:** - Our company culture - The direction and focus of our products - Who we hire **The role** As a Content Marketer at Zoya, you will be the voice of the company and shape the future of personal finance content for Muslims. You'll be in charge of creating online content like articles, newsletters, social media posts, white papers, and potentially audio and video content too. So far, we have focused all of our effort on organic network effects. As a result, a passionate community has formed and is rapidly expanding—consisting of casual investors to expert-level traders and everyone in between. Typically, they are smart, young, and ambitious but don’t have a background in finance or investing so they love our simple and accessible approach to the world of halal investing.
