Responsibilities

- Consult on site architecture recommendations: URL structure, internal linking, canonical tags, hreflang/language attributes, and crawl budget optimization
- Stay current on how search engines and AI crawlers (Googlebot, GPTBot, and similar) discover, render, and interpret site content, and adjust strategy accordingly
- Act as the primary technical liaison between Content, Development, and Client Strategy teams, ensuring technical SEO requirements don't get lost in translation
- Translate technical data into clear, actionable insights and recommendations for the Content team and for client-facing reporting
- Communicate project progress, risks, and recommendations to clients and internal stakeholders in a clear and professional manner
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to support client presentations, including performance reviews and strategy discussions
