Job Summary

You will own cross‑functional discovery, engineering partnership, and requirements development to safeguard and advance organic search performance while leading analytics, reporting, and stakeholder communication across the program.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Cross-Functional Discovery & Relationship Management: A significant portion of your time will be spent proactively engaging with technology and business teams across the enterprise to understand their upcoming roadmaps and identify activities that could materially impact organic search performance. Most of these teams are not thinking about SEO - your job is to get ahead of those changes, flag risks early, and develop mitigation strategies before a roadmap change derails the organic search presence. Building and maintaining these relationships is the most critical ongoing responsibility of this role.
  • Engineering Partnership & SEO Roadmap Execution: You'll work closely with engineering partners to drive the SEO technical roadmap forward - writing user stories, organizing backlogs, running agile ceremonies, and coordinating the development of internal tooling that makes SEO implementation scalable across millions of product pages. The business SEO strategy and requirements are already defined - your job is to translate those requirements into executable engineering work and keep delivery moving.
  • Discovery & Requirements Development: You'll conduct discovery work across technology and business teams - understanding feature requests, CMS change requirements, third-party platform capabilities and limitations, and what it takes to stand up proprietary tooling. You'll synthesize that discovery into product requirements documentation, user stories, and roadmap updates that engineering teams can act on.
  • Analytics, Reporting & Stakeholder Communication: You'll pull together business presentations, update roadmaps, and communicate SEO program status and risks to stakeholders. You'll leverage tools like Google Search Console, BrightEdge, Tableau, and BigQuery to read reports, surface insights, and support data-driven decision making. Basic SQL proficiency is expected - you don't need to be a data engineer, but you need to be comfortable enough with the data to work through it independently.
  • Testing Coordination: You'll coordinate end-user testing within product roadmaps - not owning the engineering-side testing process, but ensuring testing activities are accounted for in planning and that you can validate the end-user experience as features are delivered.
  • Create business presentations, update roadmaps, and communicate program status and risks to stakeholders across the organization
