We’re looking for a Technical SEO Manager to scale and optimize our global SEO efforts, drive high-intent organic traffic, and improve revenue growth. This is a unique opportunity to join the Global Growth Marketing Team and shape the technical foundation of our SEO approach.
In this role, you’ll support the Director of SEO in developing a best-in-class technical SEO strategy, ensuring our site architecture, performance, and discoverability set us apart. You will be a "hybrid" contributor—someone who can identify problems, write Jira tickets for the engineering team, and, when necessary, get your hands dirty in the codebase to implement fixes. You’ll work cross-functionally with Growth Marketing, Content Marketing, Product, RevOps, Data, and Engineering teams to deliver impactful technical solutions.
This role is based in San Francisco.

Requirements

• 4+ years of SEO experience, with at least 2+ years specifically in a technical SEO role (preferably in-house for B2B, SaaS, or Fintech).
