About the Team
This is a pioneering, cross-functional growth hub at the heart of OLX , where product, engineering, data science, and marketing converge to build the future of organic search and AI search discovery. We experiment at a global scale, with billions of indexed pages, millions of users and multi-category platforms, to crack continuous audience growth and AI Search challenges in marketplaces. Our mission is simple. Architect scalable, AI-ready organic growth frameworks and unlock the next generation of discovery and acquisition experiences.

About the Role
This is a deep-specialist, hands-on role. You will own the organic search health and grow agenda for two assigned categories within OLX 's Horizontals classifieds platform. Where the SEO/GEO lead sets the strategic direction across the platform, you go deep - diagnosing, executing, iterating at the category level.

You will be directly embedded in marketing, product and engineering process for your categories. Attending as the SEO voice in the room, not as a peripheral stakeholder. You translate organic search intelligence into prioritizing engineering work, and you track it through to implementation.

Please note that this position can be based in Portugal, Poland, or Romania. OLX does not provide relocation support, so you must already be based in and eligible to work from one of these locations.

- Monitoring post-implementation impact and iterating

- Documenting canonical and URL architecture decisions for engineering alignment

Growth Niche Exploration: Surface emerging and underserved search demand within your categories. Validate opportunities and propose scalable ways to capture them.
