Hey,

Short list this week. 4 remote SEO roles — but there's a pattern I have to call out.

Every single job in this batch explicitly mentions AI search / GEO / AEO in the JD.

Not "nice to have." Not "familiarity with." Core to the role. Two weeks ago I was flagging AI-native SEO as an emerging trend. It's not emerging anymore — it's the baseline expectation on senior SEO roles right now.

Ranked by how interesting I think they are 👇

1. AI Search Performance Lead (SEO + GEO/AEO) — Publitas 🏆

$60K–$73K/yr USD · Fully remote · SaaS · AI-native required

This is the sharpest JD I've read in months. Publitas turns dead PDFs into shoppable digital experiences for global brands. They want someone who owns the lead number — not traffic, not rankings, actual qualified leads from organic + AI search.

The hard filter: you already ship automation with Claude Code + LLM APIs + Python. They explicitly say they're "not looking for AI-curious candidates." You either use AI to do better work or you don't apply.

The good news: posted salary band, fully remote, and you own one of their core growth channels end-to-end.

2. SEO Lead — DeepSense

Competitive salary + performance bonus · Fully remote · 4+ yrs · iGaming plus

DeepSense is building a large-scale international content platform. Not "maintain rankings" — build a category leader. You'd own SEO strategy across product, engineering, and content teams for a multi-market international project.

Nice-to-haves that signal the niche: iGaming/casino/affiliate SEO, programmatic SEO, AI-powered SEO workflows. If you've worked on high-volume affiliate/iGaming sites, this is your natural fit.

3. SEO Specialist — Visibility SEO

Salary not posted (competitive) · Fully remote · 5+ yrs · Closes July 17

Straightforward senior SEO role at a UK agency. Full stack — technical, on-page, off-page, content collaboration. 28 days paid annual leave and remote working confirmed in the JD.

The catch: applications close July 17. If you're going to apply, do it this week.

4. SEO / AI SEO / GEO Strategist — Siana

Salary not posted · Fully remote · US-based only

Early-team role at Siana. You'd own client relationships and drive strategy for construction, architecture, and design firms. The JD is refreshingly honest — they want people who "bring solutions, not just status updates."

Hard filter: US-based only. But if you're US-based and want ground-floor equity-vibe upside at an agency that's genuinely excited about GEO/AEO as the next channel, this is worth a serious look.

🏢 In-office bonus: 2 roles worth flagging for locals

Not remote, but strong roles if you're in the right city (or willing to relocate).

5. Senior SEO Expert (3 openings) — OneLittleWeb

BDT 70K–120K+/mo · In-office, Dhaka · 5+ yrs · SaaS/B2B focus · Apply by July 31

If you're in Dhaka, this is one of the better SEO Expert roles I've seen locally. OneLittleWeb runs audits for international SaaS clients targeting the US, Europe, and Australia. Senior technical SEO role, real agency experience, and they explicitly want someone who mentors juniors.

6. SEO/GEO Manager + Senior SEO Specialist — Briskon

Salary not posted · In-office, Bengaluru (likely) · Multiple SEO roles

Briskon is a Bangalore-based digital marketing + software agency. They're hiring for two SEO roles: SEO/GEO Manager (AI Search & Organic Growth) and Senior SEO Specialist.

The SEO/GEO Manager role stands out — it's one of the few "AI Search" titled roles I've seen at an Indian agency. If you're Bangalore-based and want to work on GEO/AEO without leaving the country, this is worth the application.

This week's pattern

Six job posts total. Zero of them treat AI search as optional.

Two years ago, "GEO" wasn't even a term SEO teams used. Today, it's a core deliverable in every senior role I'm surfacing — remote or in-office.

If you're still writing "familiar with AI search" on your CV — upgrade the language. Hiring managers want to see specific tools (Profound, Otterly, AthenaHQ, Ahrefs Brand Radar), specific outcomes (citations won in AI overviews), and specific workflows (agent-based content systems). Vague "AI curious" doesn't cut it anymore.

That's it for Tuesday. See you Friday.
