## What they're looking for

- 5+ years in SEO or organic growth, with experience owning a program and delivering measurable results. We weigh what you've built more heavily than time in seat
- You've run hands-on AEO experiments and can explain what you tested, how you measured it, and what you learned
- You understand technical SEO well enough to diagnose problems, prioritize fixes, and work through implementation with engineers
- You have strong editorial judgment. You can write a useful brief, edit a page yourself, and recognize when content needs original expertise or research
- You use AI tools regularly and can build or adapt workflows with APIs, scripts, or automation platforms
- You can distinguish a promising signal from a result that needs more testing, and explain both clearly
