[Hiring] SEO & AI Search Manager @Selection Book

Role Description

We're looking for an SEO & AI Search Manager to own how people and AI models find our influencer marketing data platform.

Our site already brings in 150,000+ organic visits a month. Your job is to grow that number, and to win the channel that's replacing search as we know it: making our platform the creator data source that ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google's AI Overviews cite and recommend. You'll report directly to our Head of Growth & Marketing. This is a hands-on role with full channel ownership. You set the strategy and execute it yourself, with engineering and content support behind you, and room to build a team as the channel grows.

What You'll Do

• Own Organic Growth
  • Own SEO strategy and execution end to end: technical, content, and off-page
  • Grow 150k monthly organic visits into a compounding acquisition channel that drives signups and revenue
  • Build and own the measurement framework and its live dashboard: rankings, AI citations, share of voice, and organic signups
• Win AI Search
  • Grow our visibility across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini, and AI Overviews through entity coverage, structured data, answer-level content, and everything LLMs read about us
  • Track how AI models cite and recommend us, with tools like Profound or Peec, or by building our own
  • Run our digital PR motion: reviews, roundups, and data studies that earn the citations LLMs trust
  • Work with a rare advantage: our data already powers AI workflows through our API and MCP integrations
• Scale Programmatic SEO
  • Run and expand our programmatic page engine: hundreds of pages across niches, geographies, and rankings
  • Launch and promote free tools built to earn links, mentions, and traffic
  • Turn our proprietary creator data into content and studies nobody else can publish
• Work Across Teams
  • Partner closely with growth, content, and engineering to ship fast
  • Use AI tools and agents daily
  • Bring the outside in: what's changing in search, and what we should do about it

Qualifications

• 4+ years in SEO with measurable wins you can walk us through
• Strong technical SEO fundamentals: site architecture, indexing, structured data, Core Web Vitals
• Experience with programmatic SEO or content at scale
• Real AI-search work you can show us: content that earned citations, experiments you ran, visibility you moved
• Fluent with the standard stack: Semrush or Ahrefs, Search Console, GA4 or Amplitude, WordPress

Requirements

• B2B SaaS background, ideally data products or APIs
• Digital PR and link-earning experience
• Basic HTML/CSS and enough technical comfort to work directly with engineers
• Experience building workflows with AI tools and agents

Mindset

• Ownership-driven: you treat the channel like it's your business
• Experimental: AI search has no playbook yet, and that excites you
• Pragmatic with data: you ship, measure, and iterate
• Strong communicator who can explain what's working and why

Benefits

• A running start: 150k+ monthly visits, a live programmatic engine, and free tools already earning links
• A data moat: proprietary creator data means you can publish studies and pages competitors simply can't
• Full channel ownership: your strategy, your roadmap, your results
• The frontier of search: own AI/LLM visibility at a company whose product is built for the AI era
• An AI-forward team: modern tools and workflows are the default here
• Fully remote, any timezone, built around trust and autonomy
• Fast growth opportunities inside a scaling startup

Details

• Fully remote, any timezone
• $3,000-4,000/month
• Full-time preferred. Part-time works for the right person
