Job Description – SEO & AI Search Manager
About Us:
At Near, we help top talent in Latin America find remote roles with US companies. Our mission is to create better lives by fostering a remote work culture that transcends borders.
About Our Client:
Our client is a fast-growing, bootstrapped B2B SaaS company building the data layer of the creator economy. Its platform provides creator and influencer data through a database, APIs and AI-ready integrations, powering discovery, enrichment and analytics for marketing teams. More than 600 companies use its data, including some of the world’s biggest consumer brands, tech companies and AI platforms. The team is lean, fully distributed across Europe and the US, and growing quickly, with a strong culture of ownership, experimentation and AI-first work.
About the Role:
Join our client on their mission to turn creator data into real business results for brands and startups worldwide. We are looking for an SEO & AI Search Manager to own how both people and AI models find the company.
The site already brings in more than 150,000 organic visits a month. Your job is to grow that into a compounding acquisition channel that drives signups and revenue. You will also win the channel that is replacing search as we know it: making the company the creator data source that ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and Google’s AI Overviews cite and recommend.
This is a hands-on role with full channel ownership. You’ll report directly to the Head of Growth & Marketing, set the strategy and execute it yourself, with engineering and content support behind you and room to build a team as the channel grows.
Note: This is a fully remote role. You can work from any timezone.
Key Responsibilities:
Own SEO strategy and execution end to end: technical, content and off-page.
Grow organic traffic (150k+ monthly visits) into a channel that drives signups and revenue.
Build and own the measurement framework and its live dashboard, covering rankings, AI citations, share of voice and organic signups.
Increase visibility across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gemini and AI Overviews through entity coverage, structured data and answer-level content.
Track how AI models cite and recommend the company, using tools like Profound or Peec or building in-house solutions with engineering.
Run and expand the programmatic SEO engine, which already has hundreds of pages across niches, geographies and rankings.
Lead the digital PR motion, including reviews, roundups and data studies that earn high-authority links and LLM citations.
Launch and promote free tools designed to earn links, mentions and traffic.
Turn proprietary creator data into original content and studies that competitors can’t publish.
Collaborate closely with the growth, content and engineering teams to ship fast, using AI tools and agents every day.
What We’re Looking For:
4+ years of experience in SEO, with measurable wins you can walk us through.
Strong technical SEO fundamentals: site architecture, indexing, structured data and Core Web Vitals.
Experience with programmatic SEO or content at scale.
Hands-on AI search (GEO/AEO) experience: content that earned citations, experiments you ran, visibility you moved.
Proficiency in Semrush or Ahrefs, Google Search Console, GA4 or Amplitude, and WordPress.
An ownership-driven, experimental and data-pragmatic mindset: you ship, measure and iterate.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain what’s working and why.
Proficient English level.
Nice to Have:
B2B SaaS background, ideally with data products or APIs.
Digital PR and link-earning experience.
Basic HTML/CSS and comfort working directly with engineers.
Experience building workflows with AI tools and agents.
Perks – What’s in It for You?
Competitive compensation in US dollars.
Fully remote, from any timezone, in a culture built on trust and autonomy.
Full channel ownership: your strategy, your roadmap, your results.
A running start: 150k+ monthly visits, a live programmatic engine and free tools that already earn links.
A proprietary data moat that lets you publish studies and pages no one else can.
Work at the frontier of AI search, at a company whose product is built for the AI era.
An AI-forward team where modern tools and workflows are the default.
Fast growth opportunities inside a scaling startup, with room to build your own team.
