Lead complex, cross-functional SEO/AEO initiatives, including site architecture improvements, migrations, and platform changes
Drive Analytics, Reporting & Insights
Own SEO measurement strategy, including reporting, dashboards, performance tracking, technology stack and adoption of new tools or automations
Partner with analytics to ensure data accuracy, integrity, and scalability of measurement and translate data into actionable insights
Establish measurement frameworks for SEO and AEO, including emerging AI visibility metrics and deliver regular reporting on performance
Drive a test-and-learn culture, implementing experimentation frameworks to validate and scale new SEO and AEO tactics
What You Will Need:
10+ years of SEO experience, with ownership of strategy, execution, and performance in enterprise environments
5+ years of experience leading and developing high-performing SEO or digital marketing teams
Proven success driving measurable organic growth tied to business outcomes (e.g., traffic, conversion, pipeline, revenue)
Deep expertise in technical SEO, search algorithms, and modern SERP and AI-driven search features
Experience with AEO/GEO concepts, including optimizing for AI-generated answers, conversational search, and entity-based discovery
Advanced analytical capabilities, with experience building measurement frameworks and delivering executive-level insights
Proficiency with SEO and analytics platforms (e.g., BrightEdge, Ahrefs, STAT, Google Search Console, GA4)
Familiarity with HTML/CSS and technical SEO fundamentals, including site architecture and structured data
Strong leadership, communication, and influencing skills, with the ability to drive alignment across senior stakeholders
What You Will Get:
