# Forward Deployed Marketer - SEO

**Company:** Single Grain
**Department:** SEO
**Location:** Remote
**Remote status:** Fully Remote

## Build AI-first organic growth systems with clients

We are hiring a Forward Deployed Marketer for SEO, AEO, and GEO who can diagnose a client’s growth problem and build the operating system that solves it. Include “AI-first SEO is cool” in the subject line. Otherwise, your application will be disqualified.

You will combine senior organic-search judgment with hands-on AI system building. You need to work directly with clients, turn ambiguity into a measurable plan, and ship workflows that improve visibility, citations, qualified traffic, pipeline, or revenue.

## About Single Grain

Single Grain is a revenue marketing agency. We build pipeline-focused systems that compound, not campaigns that expire. We have helped more than 500 companies, from venture-backed startups to the Fortune 500, drive measurable growth.

We operate as an AI-native team. Every role uses AI to improve speed, quality, judgment, and leverage. AI output still requires source control, brand accuracy, technical review, and human judgment.

## Your mission

Build and operate AI-first organic growth systems that improve a client’s approved business KPI, not only rankings or content volume.

Primary KPI: produce a measurable improvement in qualified organic or answer-engine visibility, pipeline, or revenue while shortening the time from insight to action.

## What you will own

- Diagnose the client’s market, search demand, answer-engine visibility, technical constraints, content system, and conversion path.

- Set the organic strategy, KPI, baseline, measurement plan, and prioritized roadmap.

- Build agents and workflows for research, briefs, content operations, internal linking, technical checks, refreshes, reporting, and opportunity discovery.

- Work directly with client leaders and operators to unblock implementation.

- Coordinate writers, developers, analysts, and strategists with clear acceptance criteria.

- Measure visibility, citations, qualified traffic, conversions, pipeline, and revenue where attribution permits.

- Document the system so it can be used, audited, and improved.

## What success looks like

In 30 days, you have completed a client diagnosis, set the baseline, and prioritized the first high-leverage system.

By 60 days, the first workflows are live, adopted, and producing measurable operating or visibility gains.

By 90 days, the client has a repeatable SEO, AEO, and GEO learning loop with clear ownership and business readback.

## Evidence we need to see

- At least six years of relevant SEO or organic-growth experience.

- Two recent SEO, AEO, or GEO examples with your exact client-facing and execution ownership.

- One AI agent or workflow you personally shipped and maintained.

- One quantified business result with a credible attribution explanation.

- Strong technical SEO, analytics, client communication, and prioritization judgment.

## This role is not

- A content-volume role with no business readback.

- A role for generic AI output or unverified claims.

- A strategy-only seat that hands implementation to someone else.

- A traditional account-manager role with no systems ownership.

## How the process works

1. Application and evidence review.

2. A focused strategy and systems screen.

3. The published Beat Claude SEO strategy challenge.

4. A live client-case and tradeoff review.

5. References and final decision.

## Work model and compensation

This is a fully remote, full-time role. The compensation range is $100,000–$150,000. Current benefits listed for the role will be preserved.
