SEO Specialist

Getecube, Fruit Cove, FL, United States


WANTED! The World’s Most Strategic SEO Specialist — Jacksonville, FL MindShift Studios is a results-driven digital marketing agency headquartered in Fruit Cove, FL, just south of Jacksonville. We build marketing systems that help ambitious founders grow — with the precision, creativity, and accountability top‑tier clients expect.

Our primary focus is

longevity

— working with practitioners, clinics, and founders in the health and wellness space who are building the future of how people live longer, healthier lives. That includes longevity clinics, functional medicine practices, wellness brands, and health‑focused founders. We also serve clients across real estate, professional services, and other emerging industries.

We operate on four core values: the Gift of Uniqueness, the Pursuit of Clarity, the Spark of Creativity, and the Spirit of Disruption.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR We’re hiring a full‑time SEO Specialist to work out of our Fruit Cove office. This is an in‑office role, not remote. If you’re not local to Jacksonville (or willing to relocate), this isn’t the right fit.

Our SEO Specialist owns organic search performance across a portfolio of client accounts — and owns the client relationship that goes with it. You’ll handle technical audits, content strategy, on‑page optimization, link building, client communication, and Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) — how brands show up in AI search tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and Google AI Overviews.

This is an AI‑forward role. We’re not looking for someone who occasionally uses ChatGPT. We’re looking for someone who has made Claude a core part of their workflow and sees AI as a force multiplier.

You’ll report to both our Project Manager and our COO, and you’ll be the primary point of contact for your clients.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Own client communication

for your portfolio. Lead monthly strategy calls, deliver reports, and serve as the primary day‑to‑day contact.

Deliver monthly SEO performance reports

for 8–10 client accounts with clear rankings, traffic, and next steps.

Execute technical SEO audits and fixes

— site speed, crawl errors, schema, Core Web Vitals, indexation. Comfortable in Google Search Console, Ahrefs/Semrush, Screaming Frog.

Develop and execute content strategies

— keyword research, content briefs, topic clustering, editorial calendars.

Build and manage backlink campaigns

through quality outreach and digital PR. No spam. Real links from real sites.

Pioneer our GEO and AI search optimization practice

across AI‑powered search platforms.

Build and improve AI‑powered workflows

using Claude and other tools.

Report to the Project Manager and COO

through daily standups and weekly one‑on‑ones.

QUALIFICATIONS

Proficiency with Claude (claude.ai) is required.

You should be actively using Claude in your daily work and able to demonstrate how.

Client‑facing experience.

Comfortable leading calls, managing expectations, and delivering hard truths.

Strong analytical thinking.

You see stories and patterns in data others miss.

Genuine curiosity

about search engines, AI platforms, and how they evolve.

Clear, confident communication

in English (written and verbal).

Self‑directed and accountable.

We don’t micromanage.

WordPress and HTML familiarity is a plus. Experience in longevity, health, wellness, or functional medicine is a bonus, not required.

SALARY AND GROWTH SEO Specialist pay ranges from $20 to $30 per hour, based on experience, demonstrated skill, and trial period performance.

You’ll start by learning our systems, tools, and client communication standards.

Within 60 days, you’ll own a full portfolio with autonomy over strategy and execution.

Performance is graded on client retention, satisfaction, traffic growth, and ranking improvements.

We promote from within. Strong SEO Specialists have a clear path to leading our organic search practice.

WHO THRIVES IN THIS ROLE People driven by curiosity and results. Resourceful problem‑solvers who don’t wait for permission. They see AI as an extension of their brain, not a threat. They’re confident on client calls, comfortable delivering hard truths, and care about client success like it’s their own business.

Cracking tough ranking problems

Building AI workflows that eliminate tedious work

Building trust with clients over months and years

Working with ambitious founders doing meaningful work

In‑office work

at our Fruit Cove, FL location, five days a week.

Client‑facing responsibility.

You’ll be the primary contact for your clients.

AI‑forward culture.

Everyone here uses Claude daily. If you think AI is “cheating,” this isn’t your place.

Reporting to two leaders

— our Project Manager and our COO.

60‑day trial period.

Don’t leave a comfortable job unless you’re confident.

Multiple verticals.

Primarily longevity and health, but you’ll adapt across industries.

Fast pace.

Priorities shift. Not for those who need predictability.

Camera on

for all virtual meetings.

OUR VALUES Pursuit of Clarity:

No jargon. No vague reports. If something isn’t working, we say so. Truth is the starting point.

Spark of Creativity:

The best solutions aren’t in playbooks. We test constantly and aren’t afraid to try something new.

Spirit of Disruption:

We work with founders challenging the status quo. Question everything. Push back. Make it better.

Select one value and tell us what it means to you and how you’ve lived it.
