Growth Lead (SEO)

$80K - $120K // 0.50% - 1.00% // San Francisco or Remote

About the role

We’re looking for a growth manager and writer to own all things search and written content at Anara - from blog posts and help guides to email campaigns and website copy.

What you’ll be doing:

• Lead Anara's SEO strategy – Optimize for traditional search engines and emerging AI-driven discovery models (LLMs, AI-generated search results, Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and TikTok SEO).

• Implement AI-driven workflows to scale SEO – Leverage AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, programmatic SEO techniques) for content optimization, keyword research, and automation.

• Optimize site structure & performance – Improve indexing, structured data, page speed, and overall technical SEO enhancements.

You’re likely a good fit if:

• You live and breathe SEO and written content knowing what works and what doesn’t.

• Have worked in a high-growth, fast-paced environment (ideally another startup) and can drive things forward with relatively little oversight.

We’re based in San Francisco with members of the team distributed across the US and Europe.

If you're interested in moving to SF, we're more than happy to sponsor your visa. We'll work with an immigration attorney to make sure everything goes smoothly.

We offer premium healthcare (medical, dental, etc.), flexible working hours and office space with a beautiful view of the SF marina and Golden Gate bridge.

To apply, reach out with a couple of sentences about you, links to your previous work and what you want to do for us starting next week. Applications without this information are automatically archived.

About Anara

Anara is AI for scientific advancement. We help researchers understand, organize and write scientific documents, together.

We started working on Anara 18 months ago. In that time:

• we’ve grown to 2M users spanning hundreds of major colleges and research-led companies,

• we reached $3M in yearly revenue and are fast approaching $4M,

• 200M+ people have seen our content across Instagram, TikTok and YouTube,

• and we raised $2.4M from YC and the founders of Github and Reddit.

Looking ahead, we’re expanding beyond summarization and writing assistance to address the broader challenges of information overload faced by academics and research teams.

We're a small, tight-knit team with huge ambitions. As a founding member of the team, you'll be instrumental in helping us scale revenue from $3M to $10M and then $10M to $100M+.

If you’re excited by the idea of being a part of that, definitely apply.
