Jr SEO Specialist (No Experienced Needed | 1:1 Training)

This is a specialist role, not a generic “VA” position. You’ll be trained and mentored to become an SEO pro.

[Who We Are]

We’re an established e-commerce company helping businesses make their in-person events unforgettable through custom signage. You can check us out at Upgrade to see actual info.

During the pandemic, we launched a second brand that now has over 65,000 happy customers: a niche engraving shop called Stamped With Love. Both brands are growing - and we need more hands on deck.

[Who We’re Looking For]

We're hiring a full-time Junior SEO Specialist to work directly with our SEO Manager. No SEO experience? No problem. You’ll receive 1:1 mentorship and real-world training to grow into the role.

This is not a short-term gig. We're looking for someone who wants to join a tight-knit, fast-moving team and grow with us long-term.

Your first two core tasks will be:
+ Format and upload blog/page content to Shopify (with zero formatting errors)
+ Manage off-page SEO activities, including: Outreach campaign coordination and Finding and qualifying backlink prospects

You’ll also contribute to ongoing SEO initiatives and help test new campaigns every month or quarter. Your role will evolve over time - so flexibility and curiosity are key!

[Communication & Availability]

We work asynchronously via Slack and email, but have required live meetings:
+ Weekly check-in: Mondays at 8:30 AM EST
+ Quarterly strategy meetings

You must also be available for at least 3 hours/day overlapping with 8 AM - 1 PM EST for:
+ Live Slack huddles
+ Spot training
+ Support if you get stuck

Tech Requirements:
+ Reliable internet (10 Mbps download / 1 Mbps upload)
+ Working laptop or desktop
+ Backup power/internet plan preferred

[Onboarding & Reporting]
+ First 3 months: Submit a daily task report
+ After that: Shift to weekly updates
+ Training is mostly asynchronous (via Loom videos, Slack, SOPs)

[Compensation & Perks]

+ $5 / hour
+ 13th month pay
+ 2 weeks paid vacation per year
+ 5–10 sick leave days per year
+ Stable, long-term position with growth potential

[Why You’ll Love Working With Us]

+ We’re a nimble, no-fluff team that communicates often and gets things done.
+ We run on 90-day goals and move fast - but we always support each other.
+ You’ll get exposure to multiple brands, real mentorship, and a chance to grow.

We don’t hire resumes. We hire people who give a damn.

[How to Apply]

To apply, include the word “hot sauce” at the top of your message so we know you read this.

Also include a 1-minute video intro (Loom or YouTube link is fine). In the video, tell us:
