Meet the team!
As part of Preply’s inbound marketing team, you’ll work alongside SEO managers, content marketers and digital PR specialists, reporting to the Head of SEO. We're looking for a curious and forward-thinking SEO & LLM Specialist to help us grow our visibility across emerging search platforms, especially ChatGPT. This role sits at the cutting edge of AI-powered search. There’s no set playbook - just big opportunities. We’re looking for someone confident, analytical, and eager to experiment and learn fast.
You’ll help shape our strategy for LLMs as search engines, complementing our current SEO efforts with unique, high-impact content that resonates with both users and AI.
What you’ll be doing:
Visibility in LLMs & AI Search Engines
- Support the development and execution of strategies to gain visibility in AI-powered search platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Perplexity, etc.
- Reverse-engineer how LLMs surface sources and identify actionable strategies to influence inclusion and prominence.
- Contribute to defining a framework for LLM visibility tracking and reporting—building new measurement systems and OKRs where needed.
Analytical & Strategic Thinking
- Develop data-driven hypotheses and insights on what LLMs prioritize and how Preply can align.
- Build dashboards or tracking solutions to monitor progress, influence, and ROI from AI search platforms.
- Own LLM-specific performance KPIs while maintaining alignment with core SEO and business metrics, especially revenue impact.
Multimedia, Tools & Enrichment Initiatives
- Lead the creation and scaling of rich content assets—interactive tools, language learning exercises, lead magnets, videos, white papers, etc.—that increases both user engagement and LLM relevance.
- Collaborate with content, design, product, and social teams to ideate and launch assets that boost our authority and usefulness to both users and AI search tools.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Work closely with team members leading AI-generated content and third-party reputation efforts to amplify their impact through LLM-focused lenses.
- Partner with product and engineering on technical requirements to surface structured data, schema, and other signals potentially consumed by LLMs.
- Coordinate with social and brand teams to explore how social signals may influence AI rankings.
Support Broader SEO Initiatives
- Contribute to ongoing SEO projects such as page creation, optimization, CTR improvement, and behavioral metric analysis.
- Support reporting, insights, and experimentation to improve overall SEO performance.
What you need to succeed:
- 4+ years of SEO experience, ideally with exposure to AI, content marketing, or growth experimentation.
- Deep curiosity and understanding of how LLMs and AI search tools function and evolve.
- Strong analytical skills, with the ability to design KPIs and tracking systems for emerging platforms.
- Excellent problem-solving and critical thinking, able to reverse-engineer opaque systems like ChatGPT’s browsing model.
- A creative mindset for ideating high-value content formats that appeal to users and AI alike.
- A user-centric, business-savvy approach—you think in terms of value, experience, and revenue, not just rankings.
- Clear communication and collaboration skills, with a track record of working across teams.
- Bonus: experience with structured data, programmatic content creation, or video content strategy.
