Director of Organic Growth

Role Overview

We are looking for a strategic, high-ownership Director of Organic Growth to lead and scale Quillbot’s organic acquisition engine across all major discovery surfaces. This role goes well beyond traditional SEO—you will own the full spectrum of organic growth, including Search Engine Optimization (SEO), App Store Optimization (ASO), Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), and Extension Store visibility (Chrome Web Store, Safari Extensions Gallery, and others). As a Director, you will set the vision, build and manage the roadmap, and lead the existing SEO & Organic Growth team. You’ll partner closely with Product, Engineering, Content, Brand, and International teams to embed organic growth into Quillbot’s product and go-to-market strategy. Your work will directly influence organic traffic, sales, install volume, revenue, and brand visibility on a global scale.

  • Cross-Functional Partnership: Serve as the organic growth voice in cross-functional planning with AI, Product, Engineering, Content, Brand, Marketing Operations, and International Expansion teams. Ensure organic considerations are embedded in product launches, site architecture decisions, and content strategy.
