SEO/GEO Manager

130k – 170kSan Francisco, CAOtherOnsite5+ YOE
Summary

Own end-to-end SEO and GEO strategy to drive organic visibility for commercial insurance queries across Google, Bing, and AI platforms like ChatGPT and Perplexity. Requires 5+ years SEO ownership with strong technical and content skills.

About the role

What you'll do

  • Own search strategy. Develop and execute Harper's end-to-end SEO and GEO strategy — from keyword research and content planning to technical optimization and authority building.
  • Drive organic visibility. Build and manage programs that increase Harper's rankings across high-intent commercial insurance queries: coverage types, industry-specific terms, and informational searches at every stage of the funnel.
  • Lead GEO development. Research and execute strategies for improving Harper's visibility in AI-generated answers across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google SGE, and emerging platforms.
  • Partner with content. Work hand-in-hand with the content team to develop and optimize content that ranks, earns links, and answers the questions small business owners are actually asking.
  • Manage technical SEO. Audit and maintain site health; work with engineering to implement structured data, crawlability improvements, and performance optimizations that support ranking.
  • Build measurement and reporting. Track organic performance against traffic, ranking, and conversion metrics — and translate the data into clear strategic recommendations.

Who you are

  • You've owned SEO for a company that competes in a high-volume, competitive search landscape and moved the needle meaningfully.
  • You've started thinking seriously about GEO and have a point of view on what it takes to show up in AI-generated answers.
  • You think about content strategically — not just as a ranking mechanism, but as a way to build authority and answer real questions.
  • You're as comfortable reviewing a technical audit as you are briefing a writer on what to create.
  • You track algorithm updates and model the second-order effects on your strategy before most people have written about them.
  • You can translate search insights into content and product recommendations that non-SEO stakeholders can act on.
  • You're based in San Francisco or willing to relocate.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of SEO experience with ownership of organic search performance at a company with a significant content footprint
  • Proven track record improving rankings and organic traffic for competitive, high-intent keyword categories
  • Strong technical SEO skills: site audits, crawl optimization, structured data, Core Web Vitals, and indexation management
  • Experience developing content strategies tied to keyword opportunity and search intent
  • Working knowledge of SEO tooling (Ahrefs, SEMrush, Moz, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, or comparable)
  • Familiarity with the GEO landscape and the emerging practices for optimizing content for AI-generated search experiences

Nice to have

  • Experience in financial services, insurance, legal, or another YMYL category with high editorial standards
  • Direct experience optimizing for AI-powered search surfaces (Google SGE, Perplexity, ChatGPT Browse, or comparable)
  • Background building link acquisition programs or digital PR campaigns
  • Experience with programmatic SEO or large-scale content production at volume
  • Working knowledge of HTML/CSS and ability to implement minor technical changes independently

Compensation & logistics

  • Salary: $130,000–$170,000, plus performance bonus and equity
  • Location: On-site, San Francisco. Based here or willing to relocate.
  • Schedule: Monday–Friday, long days, in the building with the team.
