Part-Time Technical Writer

Work from home Full-time role Hiring

Ostium is on a simple mission: make it possible for anyone with a digital wallet to trade stocks, commodities, currencies, and crypto with full transparency. No brokers, no freezes, no hidden spreads. We’re replacing the opaque, offshore brokerage model with a transparent, permissionless trading stack built onchain. Every trade, deposit, and withdrawal is verifiable through open, auditable code. We’ve raised $27.9M+ from General Catalyst, Jump, LocalGlobe, Susquehanna (SIG), GSR, Alliance DAO, Soma Capital, Balaji Srinivasan, Meltem Demirors, and others.

About the Role

Weʼre hiring a part-time Technical Writer who understands markets and can translate complexity into sharp, credible content across Twitter, our blog, and medium-form memos. The role sits at the intersection of macro, trading, and onchain infrastructure. Youʼll turn events, new asset listings, protocol changes, and market structure topics into content traders actually want to read - not fluff, not AI mush. This is ideal for a current student at a top university who naturally reads about markets, understands derivatives, and can explain how smart contract changes affect trader experience.

What Youʼll Own

1. Market-Driven Commentary

  • Timely pieces that react to major market events (ex. gold rally, USD volatility, earnings cycles)

  • Connect macro events back to what traders can do on Ostium - new positions, hedges, strategies

  • 2. Asset Launch Memos

  • Medium- or long-form posts for new markets we list, outlining:

  • Why the asset matters

  • The opportunity set

  • How traders can express views using Ostium

  • Should read like a blend of research, market structure, and product explanation

  • 3. Technical Updates

  • Translate smart contract and protocol changes into plain language:

  • How risk engine tweaks change liquidation behavior

  • How funding, execution, or pricing improves

  • What users should expect the next time they trade

  • 4. Thread + Blog Writing

  • Short-form: concise, sharp threads or articles aligned with our voice and market reality.

  • Long-form: deeper insights that build authority with serious traders.

  • Youʼd Be a Great Fit If You:

  • Have strong familiarity with markets (derivatives, macro, onchain trading, risk engines)

  • Can write clearly and quickly - no jargon for the sake of jargon

  • Understand or are willing to learn how our smart contracts and pricing models work

  • Naturally follow market news & up and coming dexes

  • Are comfortable interviewing engineers and founders to get clarity

  • Nice to Have

  • Youʼve written research, memos, or commentary read by investors/traders

  • You have some trading experience (even hobbyist) and basic familiarity with trading architecture. Exposure to perps, spot, options, or futures is a plus

  • Technical background (solidity, quant, research) is a mega plus

  • Time Commitment

  • 5-15 hours per week, flexible

  • Asynchronous with occasional syncs

  • Compensation

  • Competitive with other part-time startup roles

  • Possibility of long-term engagement depending on output quality

  • Our past interns went on to become quants at leading trading firms
