Mercury is changing how startups bank*. We’re a financial technology company that helps startups spend less time banking and more time building their companies. In 2023, we grew transaction volume by 90% to $95B total and we have even larger ambitions. In April we announced expansion into personal banking, in May we announced new products to help finance teams do their daily work, and we have more coming this year.

In the late 1990s, Ethan Zuckerman, a programmer and designer for Tripod.com invented the “pop-up ad.”  Zuckerman used JavaScript to open another window on a web page, which allowed him to launch ads in separate windows.  Zuckerman has since apologized. 

30 years later, digital advertising has gotten more sophisticated, more productive, and we hope, much less annoying. In our view, beautiful advertising, crafted with care, and designed for performance can be a surprising, refreshing, and even pleasant experience for prospective customers.  

We believe in our product and we want to deliver it to the right people, at the right time, through performance digital marketing channels and everywhere else that founders, entrepreneurs, and growing companies are. Our Marketing organization aims to make Mercury the obvious choice for startups.  

We’re seeking a Performance Marketer to join our Marketing Org. This role will support the team by launching, optimizing, and reporting on the digital marketing campaigns that help Mercury achieve our aggressive growth goals.

As set forth in Mercury’s Equal Employment Opportunity policy, we do not discriminate on the basis of any protected group status under any applicable law.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
