Operator, SEO & AEO

Flodesk is recognized in the Inc 5000 as one of the world's fastest-growing email marketing companies, built to help entrepreneurs sell online and design emails that people love to get. We're committed to giving small businesses simple and intuitive tools that help them grow, nurture, and monetize their email list.

We're a remote-first company headquartered in San Francisco with a globally distributed team, including in-person hubs in Da Nang (Vietnam), Barcelona (Spain), and Menlo Park (California). Our team reflects the diversity and creativity of the people we serve. Join our mission to level the playing field for small business owners through good design.

Search behavior is shifting fast. A growing share of our customers discover Flodesk through ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. We're hiring a Growth Operator to own how Flodesk shows up in those answers and turn AI search into a durable acquisition channel.

You'll lead AI search optimization across Flodesk's content portfolio. The role sits at the intersection of SEO, content strategy, and applied AI: pruning what no longer serves us, rebuilding what does, and making sure LLMs cite us accurately when prospects ask about email marketing, automations, and selling online.

This is a hands‑on operator role reporting to the Group Product Manager, Growth. You'll run audits, ship changes through our CMS stack with AI-assisted tooling, draft and edit content to a publishable standard, and report on Search and AI visibility. You'll work closely with growth, brand and marketing to inform the content strategy and ensure Flodesk’s voice and positioning are captured.

• AI content structuring. Evolve how Flodesk content is structured for AI discoverability. Set and refine templates and patterns (AI summaries, citation-ready formatting, schema), measure and iterate based on what's actually getting cited.

• Technical execution. Ship changes on our sites and maintain technical SEO hygiene (structured data, canonicals, site speed, crawlability).
• Measurement and experimentation. Track AI search visibility (share of voice, citations, sentiment across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews) alongside traditional SEO metrics. Run a steady stream of small, structured tests, measure deltas against a baseline, and report biweekly on what's working, what's not, and what you're testing next.
• Multi-platform distribution. Expand beyond  into Reddit, Youtube and other content platforms as the on-site foundation matures.

• 3 to 5 years in SEO, content marketing, or growth, with experience working on AEO / GEO / AI search optimization.
• A track record of moving growth metrics: organic traffic, AI citations, qualified sign-ups. You can point to specific work and explain what you did, how you did it and why.
• Strong technical SEO foundation: structured data, internal linking, redirects, crawl health, Search Console.
• Hands‑on comfort in Webflow or other CMS platforms. You can ship content changes end‑to‑end, autonomously.
• Exceptional AI prompting skills. Given our brand guidelines, you can produce drafts that are accurate, on brand, and worth a reader's time.
