Backlink and SEO Specialist

Altss is the largest verified global database of family offices and institutional investors (LPs), built on live OSINT data. We’re creating a next-generation intelligence platform that maps allocators, funds, and deals — in real time — through relationship graphs, signals, and deep institutional coverage.
We already compete head-to-head with legacy players like Preqin, PitchBook, and FINTRX, and are scaling our SEO and LLM visibility faster than any platform in this category.

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Backlink & SEO Specialist who combines technical SEO expertise with strategic link-building execution.
This role isn’t just about sending outreach emails — you’ll be responsible for growing Altss’s domain authority, organic visibility, and topic dominance across 150k+ public pages and 100+ blog posts.

You’ll work directly with the founder to lead link-building strategy, manage outreach campaigns, and optimize on-page and technical SEO performance.

Responsibilities

SEO & Technical Strategy

• Develop and execute a comprehensive SEO strategy (on-page, off-page, and technical).
• Audit site health, crawlability, indexing, Core Web Vitals, and schema optimization.
• Track rankings and keyword performance (Google Search Console, Ahrefs, SEMrush).
• Optimize internal linking and anchor strategy across thousands of entity pages.
• Recommend improvements for meta data, sitemaps, structured data, and page hierarchy.

Link-Building & Authority Growth

• Plan and execute white-hat backlink campaigns in SaaS, VC, and finance ecosystems.
• Research and prioritize backlink opportunities (guest posts, lists, interviews, citations, etc.).
• Personalize outreach and negotiate placements with editors, journalists, and partners.
• Maintain backlink tracking dashboards and report DR/ref-domain progress weekly.
• Identify high-trust domains and avoid low-quality or spammy placements.

Content & Collaboration

• Collaborate with content and growth teams to align keyword targets and anchor texts.
• Suggest blog topics that attract natural backlinks and topical authority.
• Support content optimization for Google and LLM indexing visibility.

Requirements

• 3+ years of combined experience in SEO + link building.
• Proven success increasing organic traffic and DR through quality backlinks.
• Expertise with Ahrefs, SEMrush, Google Search Console, Screaming Frog, and SurferSEO (or similar).
• Strong understanding of ranking factors, search intent, topical authority, and entity SEO.
• Excellent written English and ability to create persuasive outreach messages.
• Analytical mindset — comfortable interpreting SEO metrics, backlink data, and crawl reports.
• Self-organized and proactive — able to plan and execute with minimal oversight.

Nice to Have

• Experience working with SaaS, Fintech, or OSINT / data platforms.
• Understanding of LLM-first SEO or AI search optimization.
• Familiarity with Notion, Sanity CMS, or similar content systems.
• Prior success earning backlinks from high-authority sites (TechCrunch, Yahoo Finance, VentureBeat, etc.).

What We Offer

• Remote work flexibility — focus on results, not hours.
• Competitive base pay with bonuses tied to DR growth, backlinks, and traffic.
• Fast-paced startup environment with high visibility and global exposure.
• Direct collaboration with the founder on SEO roadmap and strategy.
• Opportunity to build one of the most visible OSINT-driven brands in finance
