Requirements

What we're looking for

You've built SEO at real scale before, full-time. Not "co-owned SEO alongside other things" but SEO as your main job, with results to show for it. Industry (tech, consumer, anything) matters less than the scale you've operated at.
International SEO experience, you know how to approach markets beyond your home market
Fluent in English

Nice to have

Strong copywriting skills (an SEO person who can write well is rare and valuable)
Hands-on with website tools like Webflow or similar

The role

You are fonio's in-house SEO lead. Your job: make us rank #1 on Google and in AI search tools (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.) for every relevant query, not just in DACH but internationally. You own strategy and execution, guide the website team on how pages should be structured, and set the direction for keyword research across all markets. We'll work with agencies here and there, but the expertise lives with you.

What you'll do

Own SEO strategy and execution across all our markets, starting with DACH and expanding internationally
Define how pages are built and structured, working closely with the website and engineering teams on technical SEO
Lead keyword research and decide how we go after both traditional search and AI-generated results
Commission or write the content needed to rank
Manage a €20.000-€30.000/month SEO budget
Work with external agencies where it makes sense, but hold the strategy yourself

Hiring process

15 min intro call
30 min skill interview
20 min Culture fit with the founders
