- About Zip

Zip builds AI for procurement. We help enterprises bring order to organizational spend, and we're backed by some of the top investors in the world. Our content punches above its weight, which is how we've built authority in a category we're defining.

About the Role

We're hiring a contract SEO & AEO Copywriter to work directly with our SEO/AEO Manager and alongside our content marketing team. You'll be responsible for producing high-quality blog posts, landing pages, and web copy that rank in traditional search and get cited by AI answer engines like Perplexity, ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews and others.

This isn't a keyword-stuffing gig. We need a writer who thinks in topic clusters, writes for real humans first, and understands that today’s rules of search are changing fast. Every new product we ship and every category narrative we push creates dozens of content opportunities. You'll help us capture them.

What You'll Do

- Write and optimize blog posts, pillar pages, landing pages, and web copy targeting high-value keyword clusters in the procurement and finance space

- Structure articles using an "answer-first" framework: lead with a direct, specific answer to the reader's question, then layer in context and depth, optimizing for AI Overviews and answer engines, not just traditional SERPs

- Build out topic clusters that comprehensively address the sub-questions a user might have around a given theme, rather than mechanically targeting individual keywords

- Refresh and update existing content to improve rankings, incorporate new messaging (e.g., agentic AI, procurement orchestration), and align with current search intent

- Write compelling meta titles, H1s, and descriptions that earn clicks, short-form copy matters here as much as long-form

- Collaborate with Zip’s SEO/AEO Manager on content briefs, keyword research inputs, and editorial calendars

- Work with subject matter experts a
