Senior SEO / Evergreen Crypto & Fintech Editor

About the role

CryptoSlate is looking for an experienced SEO and evergreen content editor to lead, edit, and improve high-intent crypto and fintech content across reviews, guides, comparisons, and project coverage.

This role is for someone who already understands the crypto industry — not someone looking to learn it from scratch. You should be comfortable working with content on crypto exchanges, crypto cards, wallets, launchpads, presales, token projects, DeFi tools, and beginner-to-advanced crypto guides.

The right candidate combines editorial judgment, SEO discipline, crypto-native knowledge, and a practical command of AI-assisted workflows. AI tools should make research, outlining, editing, refreshing, and quality control faster — without weakening accuracy, sourcing, originality, or reader trust.

Who you'd be joining

Upshift Media — which owns and operates CryptoSlate — is a lean, AI-first team of fewer than seven people (the two-pizza rule, on purpose). We run on four values: We Own Outcomes · We Run on AI · We Get Shit Done · We Grow Together. You'd own a real surface, not a queue of tickets — with the autonomy and AI tooling to punch far above your weight.

It's also a place to level up fast: you'll work with the most advanced AI editorial workflows in the industry every day, and leave world-class at applying AI in crypto media — the kind of operator any company fights to hire.

The deal: fully remote — work whenever and wherever you do your best work (small HQ in Cyprus); a competitive base plus a high-margin performance bonus; co-working covered if you're outside Cyprus; and once a year we fly the whole team to Cyprus to celebrate. We hire culture-first — only apply if you genuinely share these values.

What you'll work on

Crypto exchange reviews and comparisons.
Crypto debit and credit card reviews.
Crypto wallet reviews — hot, cold, mobile, hardware, and self-custody tools.
Crypto guides, explainers and how-to content for beginner to advanced readers.
Launchpad reviews and token-launch coverage.
Coin, presale and crypto project reviews.
Best-of pages, listicles, commercial SEO pages and comparison content.
Content refreshes where facts, fees, features, rankings or market context have changed.

Key responsibilities

Edit long-form SEO content for clarity, accuracy, structure, search intent and reader usefulness.
Review content for factual accuracy — fees, supported assets, KYC, security, proof of reserves, jurisdictional availability, tokenomics, roadmap claims and product features.
Ensure every material claim is properly sourced, current and not overstated.
Shape articles to answer search intent quickly, then provide useful depth.
Improve headings, intros, metadata, FAQs, internal links, comparison tables, verdicts and review structures.
Work with writers and AI-assisted drafts to turn rough copy into publishable editorial content.
Identify weak, generic, outdated or unsupported claims and replace them with specific, evidence-backed analysis.
Refresh evergreen pages when products, fees, features, rankings or project details change.
Maintain a consistent editorial voice across crypto reviews, fintech guides and commercial SEO pages.
Collaborate with SEO, content and publishing teams to prioritise updates, new articles and revenue-driving pages.

Required experience

Previous professional experience in crypto, fintech or digital-assets content.
Strong understanding of exchanges, wallets, stablecoins, DeFi, token launches, presales, trading products, custody models, staking and common user risks.
Proven experience editing SEO-driven evergreen content.
Experience with commercial content — reviews, comparisons, best-of pages, buying guides, product-led explainers.
Strong fact-checking ability with primary sources: official product pages, help centres, whitepapers, docs, terms pages, fee schedules, regulatory pages, block explorers and reputable market data.
Ability to spot unsupported hype, vague claims, affiliate-style filler and generic AI copy.
Strong on-page SEO: search intent, keyword placement, metadata, internal linking, structure, FAQs and refresh strategy.
Excellent English — making complex crypto topics clear without oversimplifying.
Comfort with Notion, Google Docs, WordPress or another CMS, and common SEO tools.

How you use AI

You already work like an AI-native editor — and you know exactly where AI breaks. We're not impressed by "I use ChatGPT." We want someone who builds systems and catches what AI gets wrong before it ships:

You build repeatable AI workflows — briefs, audits, refreshes, comparison tables, FAQs, metadata, internal links — not one-off prompts.
You catch hallucinations, vague claims and templated phrasing, and cross-check every material claim against primary sources.
You know precisely when not to trust AI — current prices, fees, rankings, and legal or regulatory claims always need a human and a source.
You turn AI drafts into copy that reads like expert human editorial — because readers can always tell.

Nice to have

Editing for a crypto publication, fintech brand, exchange, wallet company or affiliate SEO site.
Ahrefs, Semrush, Screaming Frog, Search Console, Analytics, Surfer, Clearscope or similar.
Editing YMYL content where accuracy, sourcing and trust are critical.
Understanding of E-E-A-T applied to crypto, investing, fintech and product reviews.
Tokenomics, smart contracts, vesting, audits, liquidity, market cap, FDV and on-chain data.
Building editorial templates, scoring methodologies, review frameworks or QA processes.

What we offer

While we'd prefer you do it for the love of the game, this is a role where that interest gets applied to real ownership — reading product docs, challenging claims, improving structure, and turning noisy crypto information into useful pages.

A remote role focused on crypto and fintech content, not generic SEO work.
Ownership over evergreen reviews and guides readers actually use.
The chance to build editorial systems — templates, scoring frameworks, refresh processes, AI workflows and QA checks.
A practical AI-forward workflow: better output, faster, without sacrificing accuracy or judgment.
Direct collaboration with the CryptoSlate team on search strategy, content quality and review standards.
Flexible remote work with clear expectations, fast feedback and meaningful ownership.
Competitive compensation based on experience, skill level and scope.

How to apply

Send us:

CV or LinkedIn profile.
Two to three examples of crypto, fintech, investing or SEO content you've edited or written.
A short note on your crypto/fintech experience.
A short note on how you currently use AI in your editorial workflow.
Any experience with SEO tools, CMS platforms or content-ops systems like Notion.

You may be asked to complete a short paid editing test on a crypto exchange, wallet, card, coin, presale or launchpad article.
