SEO Specialist

Remote | India | Full-Time | 3–5 Years Experience

About the Role

We’re looking for a hands-on SEO Specialist who can take ownership of the day-to-day SEO function at Imprint Staff.

This is not a role where you’ll only receive a list of tasks and execute them. At the same time, you won’t be expected to figure out everything alone.

You’ll work within a setup where you have access to experienced SEO mentorship and strategic guidance, while having the independence to plan, execute, monitor, and continuously improve the work you own.

If you’re at a stage in your SEO career where you understand the fundamentals well, have handled real websites, and now want more ownership and exposure, this could be a strong next step.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

You’ll be the hands-on owner of SEO execution, including:

• Keyword research and search-intent analysis
• On-page SEO and content optimization
• Technical SEO audits and issue identification
• Coordinating technical fixes with development teams
• Internal linking and website structure improvements
• Content briefs and SEO recommendations
• Competitor and SERP analysis
• Off-page SEO and authority-building activities
• Google Search Console and GA4 monitoring
• Rank, traffic, and organic performance tracking
• Identifying SEO opportunities and recommending next actions
• Preparing meaningful SEO reports — not just exporting numbers
• Tracking implementation and ensuring recommendations actually get completed
• Monitoring algorithm updates and changes in search
• Exploring how AI-driven search and discovery are changing SEO

The important part is that you should be comfortable moving from:

Analysis → Recommendation → Execution → Measurement → Improvement

rather than stopping at any one stage.

How the Role Works

You’ll have support.

You’ll work with experienced people who can provide SEO mentorship, strategic direction, reviews, and guidance when needed.

But you’ll also have ownership.

Once the direction is clear, we expect you to independently take the work forward — plan your activities, coordinate with the right people, follow through on implementation, monitor results, and come back with recommendations.

We don't believe good SEO happens when someone has to tell you what to do every day.

We want you to gradually become the person who says:

“Here’s what I found. Here’s what I think we should do next.”

What We’re Looking For

Ideally, you have:

• 3–5 years of hands-on SEO experience
• Experience independently working on websites and SEO campaigns
• Strong understanding of on-page and technical SEO fundamentals
• Practical experience with keyword research and content optimization
• Working knowledge of Google Search Console and GA4
• Experience with commonly used SEO tools
• Ability to understand SEO data and translate it into actions
• Enough technical understanding to identify issues and work effectively with developers
• Good written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to organize and prioritize your own work
• Curiosity to investigate problems rather than immediately escalating them

You don’t need to know everything.

What matters more is whether you know how to find the answer when you don’t.

The Person We Think Will Do Well Here

Someone who is:

Hands-on.

You’re comfortable actually doing the work, not just recommending it.

Independent.

You don’t need someone following up every day to keep things moving.

Curious.

When rankings drop or something unexpected happens, you want to understand why.

Accountable.

If you own something, you follow it through.

Open to learning.

You’re comfortable receiving feedback and learning from people with deeper experience.

Comfortable speaking up.

If you disagree with an approach or spot a better opportunity, we want to hear it.

How We Work

This is a fully remote role for candidates based in India, working with a distributed international team.

The working hours will be from 1 PM IST to 10 PM IST, which means your typical working schedule in India will be during the afternoon and evening.

Our team works across different locations and cultures, so clear communication and being comfortable collaborating remotely are important.

We offer a flexible working environment, but flexibility comes with ownership. We care less about someone appearing busy and more about whether the work is moving forward.

Why This Role Could Be Interesting

You’ll get something that can be difficult to find in a typical SEO role:

Independence without being left on your own.

You’ll have experienced people around you to challenge your thinking, review your approach, and help you grow — while still having enough space to actually own the work.

You’ll also get exposure to an international working environment and an opportunity to understand how SEO connects with content, technology, AI-driven search, and actual business growth.

If you’re looking for a role where you can execute, learn, experiment, take ownership, and become a stronger SEO professional, we’d like to hear from you.
