Original job description
<p>Appear is building the infrastructure that helps brands get cited by AI: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Gemini. We're early, we're growing fast, and we need someone who can sell a category that didn't exist two years ago. </p>
<p><strong>Context</strong> </p>
<p>Search is shifting. When someone asks ChatGPT which law firm, clinic, or software to use, the brands that get cited win the business, and most companies have no idea whether they're showing up. Appear fixes that. We measure AI visibility, identify the gaps, and build the content infrastructure to close them.</p>

<li>Familiarity with the broader GTM tech stack (Slack, Gong, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Zapier/Workato, or similar) and experience integrating new tools into HubSpot.</li>
<li>Experience using AI-powered enrichment or automation tools (e.g., Clay, ZoomInfo, Apollo, or similar) to keep CRM data fresh and accurate at scale.</li>

<li>Excellent cross-functional communication; you can translate between technical systems and business needs.</li>
<li>Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving startup environment.</li>
</ul>
<p>Real category upside. GEO is where SEO was in 2004. You're early enough to matter.</p>
<p>Founders in the room. Direct access to the CEO, CRO, CMO, and GTM. No bureaucracy between you and decisions.</p>
<p>We're not looking for someone to fill a seat. We're looking for someone who looks at a category that barely exists, sees the opportunity, and wants to be the person who figured out how to sell it.</p>
