Careers at Citationly

Help build the category everyone will measure by

AI search is rewriting how the world finds products, answers, and brands. We are building the software that makes that world measurable, and we are hiring people who want their work to define a discipline.

Why now

A rare moment to join something early

Most careers in software mean improving an established category. Citationly offers something less common: the chance to help define one. Enterprise AI visibility software barely existed two years ago.

Today, CMOs at serious companies are asking how their brand appears in AI answers, and the methodology for answering them is being written right now, partly by us. Working here means your decisions compound.

Culture

How we work

Evidence wins arguments

Decisions run on observed data, tested hypotheses, and honest readings of results.

Ownership over assignment

We hire people we trust with problems, not tasks.

Speed with craft

AI search changes monthly, so we ship fast, but fast never means careless.

Direct and kind

Feedback here is specific, prompt, and delivered with respect.

Growth

How you grow here

Early-stage category work is the fastest professional development available. Everyone gets exposure to real customer conversations. Scope grows with demonstrated ability rather than tenure.

The expertise you develop here, in Generative Engine Optimization, answer engines, and AI search measurement, is expertise almost nobody else in the market has yet.

Benefits

What we offer

Competitive salary with meaningful equity.
