The Role

General Motors (GM) is a global leader in automotive manufacturing and technology, with innovation spanning electric vehicles, autonomous driving, and connected services. Our in-house search team ensures that our brands (Chevrolet, Cadillac, GMC, Buick, etc.) remain discoverable and competitive across both traditional search engines and emerging AI-driven surfaces. As search evolves from “10 blue links” to AI-powered summaries and conversational experiences, Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) has become a critical extension of our SEO program. We are seeking a highly motivated and analytical GEO Senior Specialist (L6) with 3–5 years of hands-on SEO experience and emerging GEO experience to help optimize our digital properties for both traditional and generative search. In this role, you will drive technical GEO/SEO audits, performance analysis, and hands-on implementation in partnership with cross-functional teams and agency partners.

What You’ll Do

  • Conduct comprehensive technical SEO and GEO audits of GM’s websites and experiences, identifying issues related to crawlability, indexability, site speed, mobile usability, structured data, and international SEO, with a specific focus on how these factors affect generative AI visibility.
  • Partner with development and engineering teams to prioritize and implement technical recommendations (e.g., HTML, CSS, JavaScript optimization, XML sitemaps, robots.txt, canonicalization, hreflang, schema markup).
  • Monitor and troubleshoot technical issues impacting both traditional search and generative experiences (e.g., server errors, broken links, rendering problems, and content gaps surfaced by GEO tools).
  • Track, analyze, and report on key performance metrics across organic and generative search , including traffic, rankings, conversions, user engagement, and visibility in LLM-powered experiences.
  • Develop and maintain dashboards, scorecards, and recurring reports to communicate GEO + SEO performance and insights to stakeholders across media, product, analytics, and brand teams.
  • Support the execution and interpretation of outputs from GEO/SEO tools and platforms such as Adobe LLM Optimizer, Profound, Brandlight, Bluefish, and traditional SEO tools (e.g., Google Search Console, Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, SEMrush, Ahrefs).
  • Conduct in-depth keyword, topic, and entity research to identify new opportunities for organic and generative search growth, including queries that commonly surface generative answers.
  • Evaluate how GM content and experiences are represented in generative AI search engines and LLMs , documenting risks, gaps, and opportunities, and translating findings into clear, prioritized recommendations.
  • Provide GEO + SEO best practices and strategic input for new website content, site refreshes, experience enhancements, and ongoing content optimization and experimentation.
  • Collaborate on the development of page templates and experience patterns so GEO/SEO best practices are built into new development cycles from the start.
  • Partner effectively with product, development, UX/UI, content, analytics, and brand/marketing teams to ensure GEO + SEO considerations are integrated throughout the digital product lifecycle.
  • Serve as a day-to-day coordination point with agencies and vendors (e.g., Dentsu and GEO/SEO partners) for report intake, quality checks, follow-ups on recommendations, and validation of implementation and impact.
  • Help maintain central documentation, playbooks, and intake/prioritization workflows for GEO + SEO requests and recommendations, and contribute to the broader GEO/SEO roadmap and strategic initiatives.

  • Proven track record of driving measurable organic growth through technical implementations and data-driven strategies; experience contributing to GEO-related initiatives is a plus.
