  • Measure brand and content visibility across AI-powered experiences, including ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI, evaluating citation share, mention share, source inclusion, competitor presence, answer accuracy, and visibility volatility.
  • Improve machine-readable content and entity representation across search engines, knowledge graphs, and AI systems.
  • Optimize schema markup, structured data, semantic HTML, metadata, content architecture, and passage-level content retrieval.
  • Identify opportunities to improve the representation of key entities, topics, services, experts, and locations across search and AI ecosystems.
  • Partner with engineering and product teams to translate technical SEO findings into prioritized and actionable enhancements.
  • Monitor changes in traditional search and generative/AI search behavior and recommend adjustments to content and optimization strategies.

Required Qualifications
  • 7+ years of hands-on SEO experience, including demonstrated success leading SEO strategy for enterprise-scale or complex brands.
  • Advanced knowledge of technical SEO, including crawlability, indexation, site architecture, structured content, site performance, and search visibility.
  • Strong analytical and data manipulation skills, including hands-on experience with Python, APIs, Google Search Console, Adobe CJA, and large-scale datasets.
  • Experience developing SEO measurement frameworks and connecting organic search performance to meaningful business outcomes.
  • Understanding of emerging AI search, generative search, and answer-engine optimization concepts.
