  • Assist with website troubleshooting and coordinate with technical teams to resolve issues quickly

  • Understanding of responsive design principles and good user experience
  • Strong analytical skills with experience using Google Analytics and other web analytics platforms
  • Ability to translate SEO and GEO insights into actionable content and website recommendations
  • Experience with website accessibility standards and regulatory compliance a plus

  • Ability to listen, understand, assess, and assist with any customer issues, asking questions as needed and giving detailed directions in response
  • Familiarity with Figma and Jira helpful

Why This Role Matters:

That makes this role the lever. Get the message right, ship it fast, keep it compliant, and the whole engine works better. This is where brand stops being decoration and becomes the thing that compounds.
