  • Conduct keyword research and search intent analysis across Career Certified's industries, products, states, license types, and customer journeys.

  • Ability to explain what you have tested in AI search, what you measured, and what you learned.
  • Comfortable working in an area where best practices are still developing and many industry claims have not been proven.
  • Comfortable owning execution on a lean team without requiring a large support structure.

Preferred
