We’re looking for someone curious, creative, and detail oriented to help us take our organic search game to the next level. You will help us sure up our fundamental SEO practices like author pages, URL structures and content refreshes. You will help us drive high value rankings starting at the bottom of the funnel, and you will help accelerate our evolution from traditional search optimization to a future where an increasing % of traffic and search happens with AI.

You will use current best practices + build your own roadmap of experiments to improve the impact of our SEO & GEO efforts. This role is equal parts builder, strategist, and innovator. You will collaborate closely with our SEO Lead, content, product marketing, and web development to bring your strategies to life, and you will obsess over the metrics of your work.

What You Will Do

• Obsess over creating winning content that ranks at the top of SERPs and LLMs for our highest value keywords
• Build creative and effective content workflows with tools like AirOps for content creation, refresh, and ongoing improvements
• Think beyond content quality to improve SEO rankings via site layout, internal linking, backlinks, product pages, and more

What You Will Need

• At least 2 years of experience in SEO or another analytical role—ideally in-house in SaaS, with demonstrated direct impact driving revenue
• Strong analytical skills and experience building automations/workflows - you should be able to derive the right insights from a data set and have demonstrated experience building automations/workflows in past work
• Experience quickly ramping + driving impact in your work. Past SEO/AI search experience is a nice to have, but if not, you should have demonstrated experience of ramping up on new skills/focus area and driving impact
• Strong writing and editing skills. You can craft a crystal-clear and engaging story, and you have strong intuition on what makes for high quality SEO / GEO content
• A strategic and experimental content mindset. You can make bets about what content to prioritize, update, and experiment with and rigorously track results.
• Impeccable project management. You land the plane. You’re a natural collaborator, clear communicator, and super organized.
• Curiosity and familiarity with emerging AI platforms and their role in shaping discovery. You should have experience (and ideally a few wins) optimizing for AI search

Nice-to-haves

• Experience driving optimization for AI-first search engines
