Partner with ecommerce and development teams to improve site architecture, crawlability, indexation, and technical SEO health.

Build and manage content optimization plans for category pages, product pages, technical content, blogs, whitepapers, and high-intent landing pages.

Identify opportunities for calculators, guides, FAQs, and other high-value content that drives organic traffic and conversions.

Monitor performance using Google Search Console, analytics platforms, and SEO tools to track traffic, rankings, and revenue impact.

Analyze search data to identify growth opportunities and provide clear reporting to leadership and stakeholders.

Establish and maintain SEO governance across brands, including taxonomy, internal linking, schema, and content standards.

Optimize content for AI-driven search experiences, including answer engines and generative search results.

Stay current on search engine algorithm updates, AI search trends, and industry best practices.

Support the development of a centralized SEO and Search Visibility Center of Excellence.
