• Lead international SEO execution for India and EMEA, including hreflang and geo-targeting setup, region-specific keyword research, and localization alignment with regional content and marketing teams
• Plan go-to-market efforts for new regions and markets through SEO and content, identifying priority markets, keyword opportunity, and competitive gaps
• Track, analyze, and report performance using analytics tools, translating data into clear business impact and actionable recommendations
• Stay ahead of Google Core Updates, E-E-A-T, Helpful Content guidelines, and emerging AI-search behavior, adapting strategy proactively
• Collaborate cross-functionally with content, design, business, PR, and software teams.
