## Job description

## COMPANY

Credit Genie is a mobile-first financial wellness platform designed to help individuals take control of their financial future. We leverage artificial intelligence to provide personalized insights and are building a financial ecosystem by offering tools and services that provide instant access to cash, and building credit. Our goal is to empower every customer to achieve long-term financial stability.

Founded in 2019 by Ed Harycki https://www.linkedin.com/in/ed-harycki/, former Swift Capital Founder (acquired by PayPal in 2017 https://techcrunch.com/2017/08/10/paypal-acquires-swift-financial/). Backed by Khosla Ventures and led by industry pioneers from companies such as; PayPal, Square, and Cash App, we are well positioned to build the future of inclusive finance through cutting-edge technology and customer-centric solutions.

Overview:

Credit Genie is looking for its first dedicated Organic Marketing hire, a strategic and hands-on leader who will build our organic acquisition engine from the ground up, spanning SEO, AEO, and content. This is a rare opportunity to define Credit Genie's organic growth strategy and execute it end-to-end for a fast-growing fintech.

We're looking for someone who is equal parts strategist and executor: able to build the SEO/AEO roadmap and topic strategy, and also roll up their sleeves to research, write, publish, and optimize the content that drives it. You'll own organic growth end-to-end — from keyword and topic research, to technical SEO and structured data, to writing and publishing high-quality, search, and answer-engine-optimized content, to measuring results and iterating.

What You'll Do:

You will work closely with design, growth marketing, product marketing, research, data, engineering, social media, compliance, and product teams to build a cohesive organic growth strategy for Credit Genie. If you can think strategically about search and answer engines, write compelling content yourself, move quickly, and connect content to measurable organic growth — this role is for you.

- Own Credit Genie's organic growth strategy end-to-end, including the SEO/AEO roadmap, topic and keyword strategy, and editorial calendar — and execute it yourself from research through publishing.
- Write and produce high-quality SEO/AEO optimized content across all channels including blogs, website pages, in-app copy, and guides, with a focus on content built to rank in search and get cited by AI answer engines.
- Drive technical and on-page SEO, partnering with engineering on site architecture, structured data and schema markup, crawlability, and Core Web Vitals to support organic visibility.
- Manage and optimize the SEO/AEO ecosystem using tools like Google Search Console, GA4, and Ahrefs or SEMrush to track rankings, traffic, and answer-engine citations, turning findings into action.
- Translate briefs, insights, and product requirements into compelling, on-brand copy that supports organic growth and business goals.
- Maintain and evolve brand voice, ensuring consistency, clarity, and trust across every touchpoint.
- Leverage AI tools for ideation, drafting, and optimization while refining outputs to meet quality, compliance, and SEO/AEO standards.
- Analyze performance and optimize content, using data to improve engagement, acquisition, and conversion across channels.

Requirements:

- 7+ years of experience managing content marketing in a B2C environment
- Proven track record of writing and editing skills across multiple formats
- Fluency in SEO content best practices. Hands-on experience with SEO/analytics tooling (Google Search Console, GA4, Ahrefs/SEMrush/Moz, Screaming Frog)
- Track record of measurable organic growth (e.g., specific traffic, ranking, or share-of-voice gains)
- Familiarity with emerging AEO/GEO practices like structured data and optimizing for AI-generated answers
- Comfort using AI tools for ideation, drafting, and optimization
- Exceptional attention to detail and brand voice; experienced in refining AI-generated content to maintain clarity, compliance, style consistency, and brand integrity
- Strong blend of strategic thinking and hands-on execution. You can write, analyze, and execute as effectively as you can plan.
- Comfortable working in fast-paced, dynamic environments where you can help create structure and influence outcomes.
- Experience in fintech, financial wellness, or adjacent industries is a plus.
