At Commerce, our mission is to empower businesses to innovate, grow, and thrive with our open, AI-driven commerce ecosystem. As the parent company of BigCommerce, Feedonomics, and Makeswift, we connect the tools and systems that power growth, enabling businesses to unlock the full potential of their data, deliver seamless and personalized experiences across every channel, and adapt swiftly to an ever-changing market. We believe in harnessing AI responsibly to unlock new possibilities, and we’re looking for individuals who use it intentionally to solve problems, accelerate outcomes, and expand what’s possible in their role. Our purpose is to help businesses confidently solve complex commerce challenges so they can build smarter, adapt faster, and grow on their own terms. If you want to be part of a team of bold builders, sharp thinkers, and technical trailblazers who shape the future of commerce, this is the place for you.
We’re looking for a forward-thinking SEO/AEO/GEO Manager to lead our organic search and AI visibility strategy. This role sits at the intersection of traditional search optimization and the rapidly evolving landscape of AI-generated answers and generative engine results. You’ll own our keyword and AI prompt research, drive content strategy, manage contractors and agency partners, and use AI-powered tools daily to work smarter and faster. If you thrive in ambiguity, love being an early mover, and have a strong instinct for where search is heading, this role was built for you.
What You’ll Do
Search & AI Visibility Strategy
- Own keyword research and AI prompt research — identifying not just what people search for, but how they phrase queries to AI assistants and large language models.
- Develop and execute strategies to improve BigCommerce’s presence in AI-generated answers, featured snippets, and generative engine results (Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, etc.).
- Stay current on best practices for AEO and GEO, translating emerging trends into actionable on-site and content recommendations.
- Conduct regular site audits using Screaming Frog and other tools to identify technical SEO issues and opportunities for AI-readability improvements (structured data, heading hierarchy, clean HTML/markdown output).
Content Strategy & Blog Program
- Lead the blog and SEO content strategy, including editorial planning, content brief creation, and performance measurement.
- Partner with writers and content teams to produce high-quality articles optimized for both traditional search and AI citation.
- Identify and champion opportunities to develop proprietary research and data assets — original surveys, industry studies, and statistics hubs — that earn organic links and AI citations.
- Use Clearscope and Claude AI to develop detailed content briefs that give writers a clear roadmap for search-intent-aligned content.
AI-Powered Workflow & Analysis
- Leverage AI tools including Claude AI and Gemini as core parts of your daily workflow — for data analysis, content brief generation, competitive research, reporting, and identifying optimization opportunities.
- Build and refine prompt-based workflows that increase team output and quality without sacrificing strategic rigor.
- Analyze organic performance data using Google Search Console, GA4, Amplitude, and SEMrush, synthesizing insights into clear recommendations for stakeholders.
Link Building & Off-Page SEO
- Manage and evaluate external link building contractors and agency relationships, including quality control, performance tracking, and budget stewardship.
- Develop link acquisition strategies that complement content initiatives, including data-driven outreach, digital PR, and strategic partnerships.
- Maintain oversight of link tracking and ensure acquired links meet quality and relevance standards.
Contractor & Vendor Management
- Manage day-to-day relationships with SEO contractors and agency partners, including scope oversight, deliverable review, and renewal decisions.
- Coordinate with internal stakeholders (content, dev, design, web strategy) to ensure SEO and AEO recommendations are understood and implemented.
- Own tool renewals, licenses, and vendor relationships for the SEO tech stack.
Who You Are
- 5+ years of experience in SEO, with demonstrated results in organic traffic growth and search performance.
- Hands-on experience with AI search optimization (AEO/GEO) — or a strong, documented understanding of how AI-generated answers work and a clear track record of adapting quickly to new search paradigms.
- Fluency with the SEO and analytics tool stack: SEMrush, Google Search Console, Screaming Frog, Clearscope, Scrunch, GA4, and/or Amplitude.
- Comfortable using AI tools — Claude, Gemini, or similar — as genuine productivity multipliers, not novelties. You use them to analyze data, build briefs, and accelerate research.
- Strong content strategy instincts, with experience directing a blog or editorial program and measurable SEO outcomes to show for it.
- Experience managing contractors, agencies, or direct reports, with the organizational discipline to keep multiple workstreams on track.
- Solid understanding of link building strategies and the ability to evaluate link quality and vendor performance.
- Analytical mindset with the ability to translate data into a clear narrative for non-SEO stakeholders.
- Strategic thinker who stays hands-on — you can zoom out to set direction and zoom back in to execute, always focused on what actually drives results.
- Proven ability to navigate competing priorities and align stakeholders, keeping SEO/AEO projects moving from brief to live without losing momentum.
- Bonus: Experience designing or executing proprietary research initiatives (surveys, industry data, statistics hubs) to generate linkable, citable assets.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Seo Manager
Frame your Australian SEO credentials for U.S. roles
U.S. hiring managers may not recognize Australian agency names or local certifications. Translate your experience into U.S. market terms: reference traffic volumes, revenue impact, and tools like Google Search Console and Ahrefs that U.S. teams already use.
Search for employers with active LCA filings
Use Migrate Mate to find SEO Manager roles at companies that have already filed Labor Condition Applications for similar positions. Prior LCA history signals the employer understands E-3 visa sponsorship and won't need educating mid-offer.
Target in-house teams over agencies for sponsorship
In-house SEO roles at mid-to-large U.S. companies are far more likely to sponsor E-3 visas than agencies. Agencies often classify SEO work as contractor-eligible, which disqualifies the role from E-3 specialty occupation status.
Prepare your degree equivalency documentation early
An Australian three-year bachelor's degree is generally accepted as equivalent to a U.S. four-year degree, but your employer may request a credential evaluation. Have a certified evaluation from a NACES-approved evaluator ready before the offer stage.
Negotiate the LCA filing timeline with your employer
The DOL typically certifies an LCA within seven business days, but employers unfamiliar with the process often delay. Confirm your employer has legal counsel or use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork so the timeline doesn't slip after you accept the offer.
Clarify the specialty occupation case before your interview
USCIS requires that a bachelor's degree in a specific field be a standard requirement for the role, not just preferred. If the job posting says 'degree preferred,' ask the employer to update the internal job specification to 'required' before the LCA is filed.
E-3 Visa Seo Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find SEO Manager jobs that offer E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for roles with E-3 sponsorship. It surfaces SEO Manager positions at companies with verified sponsorship history, so you're not cold-applying to employers who have never filed an LCA. Filtering by role and visa type gets you to qualified leads faster than a general job search.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does an SEO Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3 visa?
Yes, provided the employer requires a bachelor's degree in marketing, communications, information technology, or a closely related field as a standard condition of the role. The degree must be specifically required, not merely preferred. Roles where any bachelor's degree satisfies the requirement, regardless of field, can face USCIS scrutiny at the consular stage.
How does the E-3 visa compare to the H-1B for SEO Manager roles?
The E-3 is available only to Australian nationals and has a 10,500 annual cap that has never been reached, so there's no lottery. You can apply and receive a decision at a U.S. consulate in Australia without waiting for a fiscal year cycle. H-1B requires employer sponsorship, a lottery registration, and up to a year of waiting before employment can begin.
Can I switch SEO Manager employers while on an E-3 visa?
Yes, but the E-3 is employer-specific. When you change jobs, your new employer must file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need to obtain a new E-3 visa stamp at a U.S. consulate before or at the time you start with the new employer. You can't simply transfer the existing visa to a new role.
