We are looking for an experienced SEO Specialist to support our agency and client accounts on an hourly and/or project basis. This role is best suited for someone with a strong understanding of the technical and on-page sides of SEO who can independently analyze websites, identify opportunities, develop recommendations, and translate SEO findings into actionable strategies.

- Identify technical issues and prioritize recommendations based on SEO impact and level of effort.
- Evaluate website architecture and make recommendations for improving search engine accessibility and user experience.

- Analyze search intent and identify opportunities based on how users are searching.
- Perform competitive SEO research and identify gaps and opportunities.

- Provide recommendations for page topics, keyword targeting, search intent, headings, content structure, internal links, FAQs, and other on-page opportunities.
- Review existing content and recommend updates, consolidation, expansion, or optimization.
- Provide guidance on how content can better satisfy search intent and compete in the SERPs.
- Work with content teams to ensure SEO strategy is incorporated into content development.
SEO Reporting & Analysis
- Create clear, client-friendly SEO reports and audits.
- Analyze organic traffic, rankings, conversions, visibility, and other relevant SEO performance indicators.
- Translate data into meaningful insights and actionable recommendations rather than simply presenting metrics.
- Identify trends, opportunities, and potential issues within SEO performance.
- Be comfortable working with tools such as Google Search Console, Google Analytics/GA4, SEMrush, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, and similar SEO platforms.
SEO & LLM / AI Search

- Have familiarity with Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and other LLM-driven search/discovery experiences.
- Understand emerging concepts around Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), AI search visibility, entity optimization, structured content, and content designed to be understood and surfaced by AI systems.
- Evaluate websites and content for opportunities to improve visibility across both traditional search engines and AI-driven search experiences.
- Stay informed about changes in how users discover information through search engines and LLMs.
