• Conduct in-depth analyses of search engine data from first-party and third-party data sources (e.g., SEO traffic data, rankings data, search console data, etc) and partner with software engineers to build new internal tools to procure data when it’s not available from an existing source.
• Conduct experiments to test hypotheses you develop through data analysis; analyze and share experiment results.
• Provide guidance to category managers, site merchandisers, vendor partners, and product managers to build SEO requirements into their workflows and processes.
• Exhibit a strong sense of ownership, bias for action, and superior communication skills; be willing to roll up your sleeves to get the job done.

• Strong desire to execute an SEO strategy in a way that improves the customer experience.
• Excellent analytical skills with demonstrated experience turning data into actionable insights.
• Deep understanding of how search engines crawl, render, index, and rank web pages.

• Excellent written and verbal communication and data presentation skills, including an ability to effectively communicate with both business and technical teams.
