Real opportunities. Real impact. Your career, redefined.

(NOTE: A human reviews every application at Oceans, so please apply for only one position and only once a year—if you're a better fit for another role, we’ll route your application accordingly and if we’re not quite ready for you, we’ll reach back out later).

At Oceans, we believe that talent knows no boundaries. That’s why we connect the best and brightest professionals with career-defining opportunities that challenge, inspire, and accelerate their career growth. Our community, whom we call Divers, don’t just work—they dive deep, solve complex challenges, and make a real impact with global industry leaders. And in doing so, they don’t just support bold ideas—they expand their skills, broaden their expertise, and grow their careers.

We’re hiring an SEO & Content Writer to partner with a performance-driven digital agency helping brands improve search visibility, authority, and lead generation. You’ll combine technical SEO, local SEO, and emerging Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) strategies with powerful, high-quality content writing that drives measurable growth.

If you’re equal parts strategist and storyteller, comfortable with analytics, and excited about using AI tools like ChatGPT to elevate your writing, this role is designed for you.

Accountability

As an SEO & Content Writer, your success will be measured by your ability to audit, optimize, and elevate underperforming websites while creating content that ranks, engages, and converts. You’ll use your technical and creative strengths to shape strategies that drive sustained performance improvements.

Here’s how you’ll make an impact:

SEO Strategy & Execution

  • Audit and optimize underperforming websites following technical SEO best practices.
  • Improve site structure, crawlability, indexing, and on-page SEO to increase search visibility.
  • Build and implement strategies to strengthen both local and national rankings.
  • Apply Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) strategies to improve visibility on AI-driven search platforms.
  • Leverage Google Analytics, Google Search Console, and SEO tools (SEMrush, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog) to identify issues and uncover opportunities.

Content Creation & Optimization

  • Write and edit keyword-rich, engaging content optimized for both users and search engines.
  • Use AI tools such as ChatGPT or Jasper to streamline content creation while maintaining originality and accuracy.
  • Ensure all content adheres to U.S. English standards and is aligned with brand voice and conversion goals.
  • Collaborate with SEO specialists on keyword research, on-page optimization, and internal linking structures.

Collaboration & Performance

  • Partner with marketing and SEO teams on content planning and strategy.
  • Track performance and continuously improve based on insights from engagement and conversion metrics.
  • Contribute to building frameworks, processes, and playbooks that enhance the agency’s SEO delivery.

Colleagues

You’ll collaborate closely with internal stakeholders on content planning, keyword research, and on-page SEO improvements to deliver measurable improvements in visibility and performance.

At Oceans, you’ll also receive guidance and support from our Operations Manager, who will help you succeed in the role and ensure that you’re continuously growing and developing in your career.

As an SEO & Content Writer, your vertical focus will be on technical SEO and content creation, while your horizontal focus will include collaboration, analytics, and adaptability to emerging AI-driven search ecosystems.

  • AI Familiarity: Experience using AI writing tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Jasper) to enhance efficiency and creativity.

Bonus skills:

  • Knowledge of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) strategies.
  • Experience writing for multiple industries or diverse client profiles.

  • Analytics & Insight: How you interpret SEO data and measure performance improvements.
  • Innovation: How you incorporate AI and GEO principles into SEO workflows.
  • Collaboration: How you work with teams to align SEO strategy and creative execution.

You will, however, be expected to be present for in-person training programs during your first 90 days with us. During the offer process, we’ll share more information about our benefits and compensation philosophy, considering both market trends and individual factors.
