For decades, online search followed a simple exchange: customers typed keywords, engines returned links, and brands competed for clicks. AI search has changed that. What was once a way to locate information has become a way to interpret it — founders no longer just search for links, they ask complex questions, compare options, and rely on AI systems to synthesize answers they can act on. For Mercury, that shift is an opportunity: to shape how our expertise shows up across search and answer engines.
Mercury’s Organic Search team is hiring an Organic Search Marketer (SEO/AEO) to help define how Mercury shows up across search engines, answer engines, and AI-native discovery — for founders and entrepreneurs building companies, navigating complexity, and looking for trusted guidance in the moments that matter.
In this role, you’ll identify high-impact opportunities, develop SEO and AEO strategies that drive traffic and AI visibility for Mercury products (like Mercury's Business Credit Cards), experiment with new workflows and formats, and help turn Mercury’s expertise into content that is discoverable, authoritative, and genuinely useful. We’re looking for someone with strong commercial instincts, deep SEO/AEO fluency, an AI-native mindset, and the curiosity and ownership to help define what Mercury’s modern search strategy looks like.
