About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Own Mahally’s organic search strategy end-to-end across technical SEO, content and organic growth, and AI-driven discovery (GEO/AEO).
Own technical SEO for a large-scale marketplace, including crawl budget, indexation, canonicalisation, pagination, faceted navigation, internal linking, sitemaps, Core Web Vitals, and JavaScript rendering.
Diagnose and resolve index bloat by determining which page types should be indexed and enforcing decisions through robots directives, canonical strategy, and sitemap hygiene.
Define URL handling for stores or products that disappear to prevent equity loss when merchants leave.
Partner with Engineering on an SEO backlog using clear specifications, acceptance criteria, and measured post-release impact.
Design and grow durable category, collection, brand, city, intent, and comparison pages.
Own the organic content roadmap, including Arabic-first keyword and intent research, briefs, publishing cadence, and refresh cycles.
Optimise store and product templates, including titles, meta data, headings, structured data, on-page copy, and merchandising signals.
Build internal linking as a scalable system.
Define and execute Mahally’s strategy for generative and answer engines, including crawler access policy, structured data, entity clarity, citable content, and brand presence in AI answers.
Decide which AI crawlers to allow and justify the trade-off between control and visibility.
Track and report Mahally’s appearance in AI answers for commercial Saudi queries and close visibility gaps.
Own Google Search Console, GA4, Ahrefs/Semrush, and log-file analysis.
Build reporting connecting organic performance to sessions, orders, and GMV.
Set up rank, indexation, and coverage monitoring with alerts.
Run structured tests on page templates and title/meta patterns and report causal findings where possible.
Brief and influence Engineering, Product, and Content teams without owning their roadmaps.
Guide merchants on content and imagery that improve ranking and conversion.
Present organic performance, risks, and opportunities to leadership with a clear point of view and ask.
Help build a scalable organic acquisition engine that increases qualified discovery, durable search surfaces, and visibility across traditional and AI-powered search.
