You are fonio's in-house SEO lead. Your job: make us rank #1 on Google and in AI search tools (ChatGPT, Perplexity, etc.) for every relevant query, not just in DACH but internationally. You own strategy and execution, guide the website team on how pages should be structured, and set the direction for keyword research across all markets. We'll work with agencies here and there, but the expertise lives with you.

Hands-on with website tools like Webflow or similar
