Responsibilities

• Own the end-to-end organic discovery strategy: technical SEO, on-page optimization, local SEO for our center locations, and content strategy in partnership with the content team.
• Lead our answer engine optimization (AEO) and generative engine optimization (GEO) strategy so Cortica is accurately represented and recommended in AI assistants and AI-powered search (ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, AI Overviews).

• Own strategy, budget, and performance across paid search, paid social, and display/video (Google Ads, Meta, etc.), executing directly or through agency partners.

• Ensure compliant targeting and measurement appropriate to healthcare advertising (e.g., platform health policies, HIPAA-aware tracking).
• Own corticacare.com and related digital properties end-to-end: roadmap, UX, performance, conversion paths, and content publishing.
• Make hands-on updates and improvements directly — page builds, template changes, landing pages, forms, tracking — using HTML/CSS/JavaScript and our CMS.
• Run a continuous CRO/testing program (A/B tests, landing page iteration, form optimization).
• Manage web development agency/contractor relationships for larger projects.
