What are the responsibilities and job description for the Content Marketing Manager position at Maxima?
Maxima is the first agentic AI platform for enterprise accounting, purpose-built to deliver SOX-compliant, real-time close. Our founders have experience coming from both sides of the problem: from overseeing the finance org at Rubrik, to building month-end close systems at companies like Twitter and Netflix.
We recently raised our $41M seed series A funding, from top tier investors like Redpoint Ventures and Kleiner Perkins and are backed by finance leaders at companies such as Rippling, OpenAI, and Ramp.
The role
We are hiring a Content Marketing Manager to build Maxima’s content function from zero and scale it into a durable growth engine. This is a hands-on, builder-operator role. You will set the strategy, do the writing, build the system behind it, and measure what matters. We are looking for someone who can combine editorial judgment, SEO depth, AI-native execution, and strong operator instincts.
Our audience is controllers and senior accounting leaders at mid-market and enterprise companies. They are pressed for time, allergic to hype, responsible for some of the highest-stakes workflows in the business, and as such, we we want to have our content strategy and production reflect that.

- Build SEO strategy end to end, including site architecture, crawlability, schema, internal linking, keyword research, long-tail ranking, backlink acquisition, and LLM-friendly formatting
- Monitor and improve Maxima’s visibility across AI answer engines including ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI Overviews
- Comfort writing about complex topics and workflows for a senior enterprise audience in a clear, authoritative, credible way

This role will define how Maxima shows up in the market and build a content engine that compounds.
