We are looking for an SEO Strategist / Growth SEO Lead with 5+ years of experience to own organic growth end-to-end at one of the fastest-growing voice AI startups ($60M ARR, 40 people). This is a high-ownership role where you'll be the in-house subject matter expert, building the SEO growth engine that has previously been managed by contractors and consultants. You'll design systems, build content moats, and create compounding leverage across Google search and AI-native discovery channels. We need someone whose primary focus and specialization is SEO — not a generalist who touches it occasionally.
What will you be doing?
Own SEO strategy end-to-end — defining how Retell wins across search and AI discovery channels (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.)
Build and execute the full SEO growth loop: from technical SEO and site architecture to content pillars and programmatic SEO at scale
Design scalable, repeatable content systems that turn one idea into hundreds of high-quality pages
Leverage AI tools deeply to generate, maintain, and evolve content workflows
Partner with product and engineering to embed SEO into product surfaces and drive organic growth from the product itself
Retell AI is using first principles to reimagine the call center with cutting-edge voice AI.
Thousands of companies now utilize Retell’s AI voice agents to handle sales, support, and logistics calls that once required large teams of human agents. Backed by Y Combinator, Alt Capital, and other leading investors, we have scaled to $60M ARR with a team of 40 people, up from $5M at the start of 2025.
Our vision for 2026 is to build a modern CX platform where entire contact centers are powered by AI. Instead of basic automation that needs constant human tuning, we’re creating intelligent AI “workers” that can act as frontline agents, QA analysts, and managers, continuously executing, monitoring, and improving customer interactions.
We’re growing quickly and looking for ambitious builders who want to tackle hard technical problems, move fast, and have real impact at one of the fastest-growing voice AI startups.
Let’s build the future together.

No applications, no recruiter spam. Just the intro.
A few questions to make sure this role is the right shape for you. Two minutes.
I write the intro, send it to the founder, and handle the back-and-forth.
If they’re a yes, I book the chat. You show up — that’s the whole job-hunt.
