Job Description

Lead Organic Growth Engineering as a technical expert for SEO and organic social sharing/deeplinking on Realtor.com.

Responsibilities

Set technical strategy for SEO at scale, including crawl budget, indexation, canonicalization, robots, sitemaps, and rendering for millions of pages
Own QA and regression testing methodology for SEO changes before production
Define standards and work hands-on on the highest-leverage SEO and platform issues
Set technical strategy for organic social sharing and deeplinking
Own shared listing link resolution, including AppsFlyer link generation, attribution, and in-app vs. web fallback
Establish reliability standards for share links, aligned to crawl-path rigor
Run SEO and deeplinking incident response across edge/delivery, bot management, routing, rendering, content services, and attribution/MMP infrastructure
Build and own the escalation framework and conduct war rooms to drive fixes across the right owners
Ensure post-mortems close the loop into new alerts, gates, and runbooks
Define SEO and social-sharing reliability direction using SLOs/SLIs and an on-call model with the observability engineer
Own observability focus across crawl/indexation health and deeplink resolution/attribution health
Maintain visibility into changes affecting organic-critical pages and the share/deeplink path in partnership with Organic Growth PMs, including the Director, Organic Growth
Lead log-file, crawl-budget, and deeplink-performance analysis; define what to look for in crawler behavior (crawl waste, over-crawl patterns, index drift) and deeplinks (resolution failure rate, attribution loss, in-app vs. web fallback rate)
Raise the technical bar through engineering standards, design reviews, and hands-on mentorship of engineers through the work
Partner with the Organic Growth product team on the “what and why” while owning the “how” for the platform systems underneath

Requirements

Experience with federated GraphQL and API gateway architectures
Experience with CDN, WAF, and bot-management layers
Familiarity with search engine indexing APIs
Experience with dynamic rendering or prerender approaches
Direct experience with AppsFlyer (or Branch/Adjust) SDK integration, OneLink/deferred deep linking, and attribution reconciliation
Experience defining SLOs and real-time alerting for a customer-facing platform

Data and analysis skills using SQL against a cloud data warehouse for log-file, crawl-budget, and deeplink-performance analysis
CI/CD and automation experience building regression gates and automated quality checks
Cross-team technical leadership as an IC: drive fixes and influence design without positional authority and act as calm incident commander

Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent experience
8+ years of software engineering experience, including experience owning technical SEO or crawl/rendering infrastructure
