Job Description

We are seeking a highly driven and systems-oriented Content Strategist to join our team and help scale our content operations. This is a pivotal role for a specialist who is ready to move beyond traditional blogging and take true ownership of content performance at scale. You will be responsible for bridging the gap between high-level SEO and the new era of AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), ensuring our clients dominate both traditional search and AI-driven discovery engines.

The ideal candidate has experience developing complex content strategies for a diverse portfolio of clients. You should possess a "test-and-learn" mindset regarding AI-generated content and have the technical curiosity to build AI design systems that streamline production without sacrificing quality.

Key Responsibilities

  • Strategic Ownership: Act as the primary architect for content strategy and execution across your accounts. You are accountable for organic growth, topical authority, and visibility within AI answer engines (Perplexity, SGE, etc.).
  • Deep SEO/AEO Research: Perform advanced keyword and entity research. You will map out content structures that satisfy both traditional search intent and the structured data requirements of LLM-driven search.
  • AI Content Systems: Design and manage AI-assisted workflows. You will be responsible for building systems that ensure brand consistency and high-quality output across high-volume content plays.
  • Full-Funnel Content Structure: Plan and oversee the execution of complex content hubs, ensuring internal linking and site architecture are optimized for both crawlers and users.
  • Performance & Innovation: Stay at the forefront of the industry, testing new methods for content velocity and "human-in-the-loop" AI editing frameworks to maintain a competitive edge.
  • Reporting & Analysis: Use GA4, Search Console, and AEO tracking methods to provide deep-dive insights. You will report on ROI and conversion growth rather than just output volume.

Qualifications

  • Experience: Proven experience developing and executing content strategies at scale, ideally within an agency environment.
  • Technical Skills:
    • Search Mastery: Deep understanding of SEO/AEO, content clustering, and semantic search.
    • AI Literacy: Hands-on experience with AI-generated content tools and building prompt-based systems to scale production.
    • Data Fluency: Ability to translate complex search data into actionable business strategies.
    • Analytical Tools: Proficiency with Ahrefs/SEMRush, Google Search Console, and GA4.
  • Attributes: High attention to detail, a proactive "can-do" attitude, and the ability to thrive in a fully remote, fast-paced environment.

Bonus Points (Nice to Haves)

  • Claude Code / MCP: Experience using Claude Code or Model Context Protocol to streamline marketing operations, data analysis, or content deployment.
  • Technical Architecture: Experience with CMS platforms to manage content design and structure.
  • Design Systems: A background in creating modular content or design systems that can be systematized via AI.

What We Offer

  • Competitive salary ($60k--$75k) and benefits package.
  • A fully remote, flexible work environment.
  • Opportunities for professional development in the latest agentic AI and marketing technologies.
  • A collaborative culture that values results and high-level systems thinking.

To Apply:

Please submit your resume and a brief cover letter or portfolio. In your note, explain a specific instance where you scaled a content strategy using AI or advanced SEO/AEO tactics to drive measurable ROI.
