SEO Manager (Technical + Growth, Hands-On)

Job Description

Role Overview
We are looking for an SEO Manager who owns organic growth end-to-end and can execute across both technical SEO and link acquisition.

This is a hands-on role — you will work directly in WordPress and custom-coded environments, implement changes yourself where possible, and drive measurable outcomes: traffic, backlinks, and conversions (signups, sales calls, revenue).
You should combine a developer mindset, a growth focus, and the ability to deliver consistent, predictable SEO output (especially backlinks).

Key Responsibilities

1. Organic Growth Ownership (Traffic → Signups → Revenue)

• Own and grow organic traffic as a key acquisition channel
• Optimize for business outcomes, not just traffic:
• Signups
• Paid subscriptions
• Conversion into sales calls
• Identify and execute SEO opportunities that directly impact pipeline

2. Technical SEO + Hands-On Implementation

• Work directly with:
• WordPress
• Custom-coded website (staging + production)
• Implement SEO changes independently where possible:
• On-page optimization (meta, headers, internal linking)
• Schema and structured data
• Indexation and crawlability fixes
• Run technical audits and resolve:
• Rendering issues (including JS SEO)
• Site structure and internal linking
• Core Web Vitals / performance
• Operate comfortably across testing and production environments

3. Backlink Acquisition (Core KPI: Consistent Output)

• Build and execute a scalable backlink strategy
• Deliver a predictable number of quality backlinks every month
• Execute outreach and partnerships directly
• Focus on links that improve rankings, not vanity placements
• Track and report backlink impact on rankings and traffic

4. Analytics & Execution

• Use tools like:
• Google Search Console, GA4
• Ahrefs / SEMrush
• Screaming Frog
• Monitor performance and continuously optimize
• Run SEO experiments and iterate based on results

Requirements

Proven Performance

• Demonstrated success in growing organic traffic
• Ability to present at least 2 strong case studies, including:
• Clear strategy
• Actions taken
• Measurable results (traffic, rankings, conversions)

Technical & Execution Skills

• Strong technical SEO expertise
• Ability to work with:
• WordPress
• Custom-coded websites (HTML, CSS, basic JavaScript)
• Comfortable implementing changes directly (not dependent on dev team)
• Understanding of staging vs production workflows

Backlink & Output Discipline

• Proven experience in link building
• Ability to deliver consistent, predictable backlink output monthly
• Focus on execution and results, not just strategy

SaaS & Growth Understanding

• Experience working with SaaS products
• Understanding of:
• Acquisition funnels (traffic → signup → paid → sales call)
• How SEO contributes to revenue, not just visibility
• Ability to align SEO efforts with product and GTM strategy

Nice to Have

• Experience in B2B SaaS
• Programmatic SEO experience
• Basic scripting (Python/SQL)
• Experience working in early-stage or high-growth environments

What Success Looks Like

• Consistent growth in:
• Organic traffic
• Signups and paid users
• Reliable delivery of monthly backlink targets
• Technical SEO issues identified and resolved proactively
• SEO becomes a predictable, revenue-driving channel

Benefits

• Competitive Compensation – Attractive salary package.
• Flexible Work Environment – Fully remote option with flexible hours to balance personal and professional life.
• Innovative Culture – Work in a collaborative, dynamic environment where your insights directly impact business outcomes.
• Paid Time Off – Generous vacation policy, sick leave, and company holidays.
