🤝 Cross-Functional Collaboration & Advocacy 

• Serve as the technical SEO expert, partnering with Product, Editorial, and Development teams to integrate SEO best practices throughout site projects. 

• Translate complex technical SEO concepts to non-technical stakeholders to drive alignment on priorities. 

• Produce detailed reporting on technical SEO performance using tools like GSC, GA4, Screaming Frog, and log file analyzers.
