Your Role

Hi, I’m Pedro Marzagão, Digital Marketing Director at WebPros, and your future manager. I lead the Digital Marketing team that works across WebPros brands such as cPanel, Plesk, and others, covering SEO, paid, content, and marketing operations.

This role is for an SEO Senior Specialist/ Lead and owns organic growth for a set of brands. You will continue growing by working in parallel with our SEO Manager, Tejas Vernekar, who leads a different set of brands, and co-manage the relationship with our external SEO and content agencies. We want your focus on turning organic visibility, in classic search and in AI answers, into pipeline and revenue.

Key Responsibilities

Own the SEO roadmap for your brands and execute against the existing strategy, so that organic growth stays consistent while you add ideas that evolve it.

Prioritize SEO opportunities by expected business impact, so that effort moves from traffic to pipeline and revenue.

Work with our external SEO and content agencies through clear briefs, reviews, and quality standards (accuracy, E-E-A-T), so that deliverables tie to business goals.

Lead technical and on-page SEO with web development teams (crawlability, structured data, Core Web Vitals, migrations, international), so that our sites are easy to find and index.

Grow brand visibility in AI search (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini) and measure brand demand beyond clicks (branded search, share of voice, AI citations), so that we understand our real reach.

Build your own dashboards and AI-assisted workflows with GA4, Google Search Console, and MCP integrations, so that reporting and audits are fast, accurate, and less manual. No manual spreadsheet fill-ins.

Coordinate stakeholders across product, brand, and development teams in Jira, Slack or existing operation trackers, so that SEO work is visible, prioritized, and delivered on time.

Your Qualifications

Must-haves

• 6–8 years of hands-on SEO experience across technical, on-page, content strategy, and measurement, preferably on the brand side rather than primarily in an agency environment.
• Proven ability to independently own SEO initiatives from strategy to execution, and to turn ideas into prioritized work tied to business impact, connecting organic performance to revenue rather than traffic alone.
• Experience managing external agencies or vendors, with strong project management skills across multiple stakeholders and tools like Jira or Monday.com.
• Strong analytical skills in GA4 and Google Search Console, and hands-on experience using AI tools and MCP integrations to combine data and build your own dashboards.
• Based in Mumbai and open to working from the office 5 days/week.

Nice-to-haves

• Has built AI-assisted or automated workflows (agents, scripts, or pipelines) that measurably reduced manual SEO or reporting effort.
• Experience connecting organic performance to pipeline and revenue – by creating forecast models.
• Hands-on experience improving visibility in AI search (GEO/AEO), with examples of experiments and results.
• Experience across multiple brands or markets, including international SEO.
• Background in B2B SaaS, hosting, or other technical products with developer or sysadmin audiences.
• Your Impact in the First 120 Days
• 30 days (Learn & Integrate): Complete onboarding, get to know the brands, the existing SEO strategy, and the agency partners, and meet your peer SEO Senior Manager and key stakeholders.
• 60 days (Contribute & Collaborate): Take ownership of the roadmap for your brands, run the agency check-ins, and share your first prioritization ideas based on business impact.
• 90 days (Take Ownership): Run your brands’ SEO initiatives with minimal supervision, with your own dashboards and reporting in place, and deliver your first measurable results.
• 120 days (Drive Growth): Own the role end to end, including agency performance and revenue-focused reporting, and propose your first improvements to the strategy, backed by data.

You Might Thrive Here If You

• Take initiative and solve problems without waiting for direction
• Enjoy turning data into decisions, and decisions into business results
• Collaborate openly across teams, agencies, and time zones
• Look for ways to use AI to work smarter, while keeping human judgment in the loop
• Care about quality and the end-user experience

You Might Struggle Here If You

• Prefer to execute hands-on rather than guide agencies and partners
• Measure success mainly by rankings and traffic rather than business impact
• Are uncomfortable giving and receiving feedback
• Prefer rigid structures and top-down direction
• Are not comfortable with using AI to improve workflows and reporting
