This role goes beyond traditional SEO. We want someone who understands how search is evolving across Google, AI answers, and knowledge-based discovery, and can build authority, not just rankings.

    • “People Also Ask”

    • AI-generated answers

  • Work closely with content teams to create clear, authoritative, citation-worthy content

  • Acquire links through:

Team Management

  • Lead and mentor internal SEO team members

  • Set priorities, review output, and maintain quality standards

  • Build scalable SEO processes, documentation, and workflows


Vendor & Agency Management

  • Manage external SEO agencies, backlink vendors, and content partners

  • Brief vendors clearly with goals, guidelines, and success metrics

  • Evaluate vendor ROI and decide what to outsource vs keep in-house

  • Ensure timelines, quality, and compliance are met


Reporting & Optimization

  • Track performance using GSC, GA, Ahrefs/SEMrush, and related tools

  • Translate data into insights and action plans

  • Report clearly to leadership with a focus on outcomes, not just metrics


Required Experience & Skills

  • Proven experience as an SEO Lead / SEO Manager for US-market SaaS, EdTech, or B2B platforms

  • Strong team management and vendor management experience

  • Demonstrated success with:

    • AEO / answer-based search optimization

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities.

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.
