Job Description
SEO, AEO Copywriter – Contract
Zip
• 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 across product marketing, research, and our advisory team to ensure technical accuracy and depth
Job Requirements
- 3+ years of experience writing SEO content in B2B SaaS, fintech, or enterprise software with ranking results you can point to
- A portfolio that demonstrates entity-based, topic-cluster thinking, not just "I wrote a blog post targeting [keyword]"
- Strong understanding of how LLMs and answer engines (Perplexity, ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews) retrieve and cite information, and a proven ability to write content that is both human-readable and structured for AI crawlability
- You default to covering the full scope of a user's intent rather than obsessing over keyword density if someone hands you 50 keywords, you know you don't need to use all 50
- Ability to write in a clear, authoritative, non-generic voice. We're not looking for content that reads like it was written by a prompt. Zip's content is direct, a little opinionated, and never boring
- Comfort writing about complex topics (procurement workflows, AP automation, spend management, AI agents) for a senior enterprise audience without dumbing things down or losing clarity
- Experience with SEO tools like Ahrefs, SEMrush, Clearscope, or similar
- Familiarity with CMS publishing workflows (we use Webflow)
