Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Jerry is building an AI-powered app to simplify car and home ownership, including insurance, repairs, financing, and maintenance. The Editor-in-Chief will lead the company’s editorial strategy and content quality across owned and external platforms, while building an AI-native production system and driving SEO, AEO, organic traffic, conversions, and authoritative YMYL content.
Responsibilities
- Content strategy: Own Jerry's editorial engine across [jerry.ai](http://jerry.ai) and external platforms — roadmap, architecture, resource allocation, and the organic traffic and conversion targets that follow. Define the strategy and hit the numbers
- AI-native production: Design and run the brief → AI draft → human edit → QA → publish workflow. Manage and develop the prompt libraries, QA gates, and quality-drift metrics that let output scale without degrading. You set the policy on what AI handles and where the human stays in the loop
- SEO, AEO, and off-domain authority: Build pages and clusters that rank on Google and earn citations from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and AI Overviews — structuring content with answer capsules, question-based headings, FAQ schema, and entity optimization. Stay on top of the ever evolving landscape and make sure model updates work in our favor. Track citation presence across search and AI answer engines and own the gap-closure roadmap
- E-E-A-T and YMYL compliance: Set and enforce Jerry's voice and style guide across writers, freelancers, and AI output. Build the trust infrastructure YMYL finance content requires — named expert authors, sourcing discipline, editorial review processes, and transparent credentials
Skills
- A strong writer with an editor's instincts. You can write a clean, persuasive piece from a blank page and edit an AI draft to a meaningfully higher standard. You also think in systems and can navigate briefs, templates, QA checkpoints effortlessly. You know that taste without process doesn't scale
- An AI director. You've already shipped a real AI-assisted content pipeline in production. Not a prototype, but a running workflow with guardrails that held quality at scale. You know where AI earns its place and where it creates risk, and you can articulate exactly where the line is
- An AEO practitioner. You already track how brands appear in AI answer engines and have opinions and examples on what moves the needle. AEO is part of your current practice, not something you've read about
- A YMYL realist. You've worked in a regulated or high-stakes content category — insurance, personal finance, health, or legal — and you understand that accuracy is the product. Close enough isn't
- 7+ years in content and editorial roles, with 3+ years leading an SEO-driven content program at a consumer, fintech, insurtech, or marketplace brand — or at a content-led media or affiliate site
- A measurable organic growth result you can point to: sessions grown, publish volume scaled, a topic cluster built, and the dashboard to back it up
- Hands-on command of LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) for drafting and research, plus SEO and content tools such as Sitefire, Surfer, Clearscope, MarketMuse, or Frase
- Fluency in GSC, Semrush or Ahrefs, and GA4 — comfortable owning a traffic target, not just reporting on it
- Experience managing at least one writer and/or a freelance bench, while continuing to produce content personally
- A portfolio that demonstrates voice, editorial judgment, and accuracy — not only keyword density
