SEO & AI Search Marketing Intern

Search is being rewritten. Come help us shape what's next. Buyers used to start on Google. Now they ask ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini which vendors to trust. Getting recommended by an AI assistant is a different problem from ranking on a search page — some people call it Generative Engine Optimization (GEO), some call it AEO, and the field hasn't agreed on a name yet. That's how early this is. At Flexspring — the leading expert in HR data integration — we're investing in it now rather than waiting for the playbook to be written. You'll work directly with our VP of Marketing and SEO Specialist across both halves of the job: the SEO discipline that's thirty years old and well understood, and the AI-search side that's about two years old and largely unmapped. You'll run experiments, analyze results, and help build our approach. You'll own real projects and leave with a portfolio that shows measurable business impact. What you'll do Run keyword research and build the topic clusters and content roadmap that come out of it Figure out what actually makes AI assistants cite a company as a source — and apply it to us Track how we appear in Google, AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini Handle on-page optimization and support technical SEO audits Support backlink outreach and digital PR across HR tech and enterprise software publications Use AI tools to accelerate research, competitive analysis, and reporting Analyze rankings, traffic, and AI citations to recommend what we do next What you'll walk away with A full audit covering both traditional search and AI visibility for a real iPaaS company. A keyword strategy and content architecture you built. Technical recommendations backed by your own research. Practical experience measuring how a brand shows up inside AI assistants — something very few marketers can claim yet. What we're looking for This is a new field. There's no textbook and no established playbook, so we're screening for evidence you move
