Lead SEO Strategist

Success Matcher Recruitment · California, MO, USA ·

Job type:
Full Time

We’re partnering with one of the fastest-growing AI companies in Silicon Valley to find an exceptional SEO leader who wants to build something from the ground up.
This is not a role where SEO sits on the sidelines of marketing initiatives. You will own organic growth strategy end-to-end and become the in‑house subject matter expert responsible for defining how the company wins across traditional search and emerging AI discovery channels.
Why this is a great opportunity: Own the entire SEO function with executive visibility and influence across the business.
Build the SEO growth engine from scratch rather than inheriting legacy processes and systems.
Shape strategy not only for Google Search, but also for AI‑native discovery platforms such as ChatGPT and Perplexity.
Work at the intersection of SEO, AI, product, and engineering to create durable competitive advantages.
Join a rapidly scaling AI company with strong market traction and substantial growth momentum.
Receive meaningful equity and the opportunity to create outsized impact at an early stage.
What you’ll be doing: Define and execute the company’s SEO strategy across search and AI discovery channels.
Own technical SEO, site architecture, content strategy, and programmatic SEO initiatives.
Build scalable content systems that transform individual ideas into hundreds of high-quality pages.
Leverage AI tools to improve content production, optimization, and workflow automation.
Partner closely with product and engineering teams to embed organic growth directly into product experiences.
Develop sustainable content moats and long‑term growth loops that compound over time.
What we’re looking for: 5+ years of SEO experience where SEO has been your primary area of expertise.
Deep experience with technical SEO, programmatic SEO, and content‑led growth strategies.
Strong command of tools such as Ahrefs, SEMrush, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, and Google Analytics.
Experience using AI tools to improve content generation and operational efficiency.
A builder mindset with the ability to operate independently in fast‑paced environments.
Curiosity about how AI is changing search behavior and organic acquisition.
This role is ideal for someone who wants to move beyond optimizing rankings and instead help define what organic growth looks like in the AI era.
