We’re looking for a Senior SEO Specialist who can turn organic and AI search into a predictable growth engine.

- Manage and expand link-building initiatives, including outreach and partnerships that improve domain authority.
- Monitor and report on performance, including rankings, traffic, CTR, engagement, and revenue contribution.
- Partner with web and engineering teams to ensure technical SEO best practices are implemented and maintained.
- Optimize site architecture, internal linking, crawl efficiency, and structured data.
- Stay ahead of search trends and propose innovative approaches to keep the program competitive.
- Lead special projects tied to organic growth goals — from site migrations and international SEO to new product launch support.
You’ll be a good fit if you have:
- 3+ years of hands-on SEO experience, ideally within B2B or SaaS environments.
- Strong command of keyword research, SERP analysis, and intent-driven content development.
- Deep familiarity with Google Analytics, Search Console, SEMrush, and similar SEO platforms.

- Experience partnering with developers and web teams to execute technical improvements.
- Extensive WordPress experience, including WPML and multi-language page management.
- Clear understanding of search engine algorithms, ranking factors, and SEO do’s/don’ts.
