SEO Automation Engineer

LinkGraph / Search Atlas

Location: Remote

Compensation: $17.32 – $28.86/hour USD

Benefits: 15 days PTO. Christmas Day and New Years Day paid off.

Fair warning: the pace is intense and the ambiguity is real. But youll feel yourself growing every single week, even the rough ones, and youll be doing it next to people who actually celebrate your wins and have your back.

LinkGraph is the agency and services side of Search Atlas. Were AI native from day one. Were not joining a category, were defining it.

Were looking for someone who will replace the manual work of three editors with systems that publish content across 100+ client sites automatically, with zero errors. If your idea of automation is a Zapier workflow strung together with some no-code tools, this role will be a hard adjustment.

What youll do

Automation development (50%)

• Build automated systems that publish content across WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, and custom CMS setups. No manual uploads.

• Use Claude Code daily to write automation scripts, build API integration layers, and refactor code as the pipeline evolves.

• Apply real SEO knowledge, on page, off page, and technical, so automated content actually performs, not just publishes correctly.

Technical quality assurance (30%)

• Build QA layers that catch bad or obviously AI sounding content before it reaches a client site, not after.

• Track every code change, get it reviewed, and test it on a staging site before it goes live on a clients site.

• Before switching AI models to cut cost, test the new model against real examples and prove its just as good. Dont just swap it and hope.

Project coordination (20%)

• Document what you build so the team isnt stuck needing you to explain it later.

• Sync with content and fulfillment teams to keep the pipeline moving smoothly.

Youll thrive here if...

• Claude Code is already how you build things, not something youre still getting used to.

• You test somewhere safe before anything touches a real client site.

• You write your own code to build automation. You dont rely on no-code tools like Zapier or n8n.

• You dont wait to be told what to do. You see the gap and you move.

• Deadlines dont rattle you. Ambiguity doesnt either.

• You communicate clearly, especially when things are unclear.

• You can laugh at a chaotic week on Friday and mean it.

What were looking for

• 5+ years working with CMS platforms at a technical level. WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, or similar.

• Real hands on experience with Claude Code. Connected to a repo, using context files, not just Claude.ai in a browser.

• Strong scripting in Python or JavaScript.

• Experience with Git and code review. You test changes on a staging site before publishing to a live client site.

• Hands on experience building your own API integrations and automations, webhooks or similar. Not just connecting no-code platforms like Zapier or n8n.

• Experience with automated testing, Playwright, pytest, or similar.

• Solid, current SEO knowledge. On page, off page, technical.

What working here actually looks like

High expectations. Real ownership. Your first project is an enterprise client account that becomes a case study. Things move fast and we dont apologize for it.

We use AI every day, across every function. Thats just how we work.

Our process

• Recruiter interview

• Hiring manager interview

• Leadership interview

What we stand for

• We are obsessed with our customers, and making them obsessed with us

• We figure it the f**k out

• We go to war on our problems quickly

• We are strategic. We work smart, not just hard.

• Were fun AF
