9d•$75,000 - $90,000•Hybrid

About The Position

seoClarity is looking to surface an Enterprise Senior Technical SEO Analyst who knows that the most valuable insights in SEO rarely sit at the top of a report. Based in our Downtown Chicago office, this role sits at the intersection of technical SEO strategy, enterprise data analysis, and client-facing consultation. seoClarity is the technology leader in Search Engine Optimization (SEO) marketing analytics, and our technology platform and services help the world’s biggest brands optimize their websites so they can be discovered, trusted, and chosen by their customers. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys digging deeper than surface-level metrics. You understand that behind every ranking shift, crawl anomaly, or indexing issue is a story waiting to be decoded. Rather than simply running audits or exporting reports, you’re someone who enjoys connecting the signals across data sources to uncover what is actually happening beneath the hood of large, complex websites. If you’re the kind of person who can’t help but dig one layer deeper into the data, who enjoys unraveling complex technical puzzles, and who gets genuine satisfaction from turning messy signals into clear, actionable insight, this role was built for you!

Requirements

5+ years of employment experience in SEO, with a strong emphasis on technical SEO analysis for large or complex websites.
Proven experience diagnosing technical SEO challenges by analyzing multiple data sources and identifying patterns beyond what automated SEO tools surface.
Experience analyzing large, complex websites (thousands to millions of URLs) and identifying technical patterns that affect crawling, indexation, internal linking, and overall site architecture.
Strong understanding of how search engines crawl, render, index, and rank web content, along with the technical factors that influence those processes.
Experience working with multiple SEO data sources including crawl data, server logs, analytics platforms, and search performance data to uncover insights and diagnose root causes.
Ability to translate complex technical SEO insights into clear, actionable recommendations and confidently communicate those findings to clients and internal stakeholders.
Experience working with enterprise-scale organizations, either in-house, through a technical SEO agency, or within an enterprise SEO platform environment.
Strong analytical thinking and investigative instincts, with the ability to form hypotheses, diagnose complex technical challenges, and prioritize recommendations based on likely impact.
Advanced proficiency in Excel or similar data analysis tools with the ability to organize, interpret, and synthesize large datasets.
Working knowledge of web technologies such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript sufficient to understand how websites are built and where technical SEO issues can arise. This role does not require software development experience, but candidates should be comfortable reading and interpreting code.
Experience working with analytics platforms such as Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, or similar tools.
Strong familiarity with technical SEO initiatives such as site migrations, CMS migrations, template updates, internal linking architecture, canonicalization, rendering challenges, and indexation management.

Nice To Haves

Exposure to SQL, Python, or AI-assisted analysis tools is a plus, particularly in environments where large datasets require deeper exploration.
Experience with data visualization tools such as Looker, Power BI, or Tableau is a plus.
