SEO Manager

From your everyday PowerPoint presentations to Hollywood movies, AI will transform the way we create and consume content. Today, people want to watch and listen, not read — both at home and at work. If you’re reading this and nodding, check out our recent Synthesia 3.0 event.

Despite the clear preference for video, communication and knowledge sharing in the business environment are still dominated by text, largely because high-quality video production remains complex and challenging to scale — until now….

We're on a mission to make video easy for everyone. Born in an AI lab, our AI video communication platform simplifies the entire video production process, making it easy for everyone, regardless of skill level, to create, collaborate, and share high-quality videos. Whether it's for delivering essential training to employees and customers or marketing products and services, Synthesia enables large organizations to communicate and share knowledge through video quickly and efficiently. We’re trusted by leading brands such as Heineken, Zoom, Xerox, McDonald’s, and more. Read stories from happy customers and what 2,300+ people say on G2.

In 2023, we were one of seven European companies to reach unicorn status. In February 2024, G2 named us the fastest-growing company in the world. In 2025, we announced our Series D funding. In total, we’ve raised over $330M in funding from top-tier investors, including NEA, Atlassian Ventures, WiL, PSP Growth, and existing investors such as Accel, Nvidia, Kleiner Perkins, GV, and top founders and operators from Stripe, Datadog, Miro, Webflow, and Facebook.

We’re looking for a hands-on SEO Manager to join our Marketing team and help us strengthen Synthesia’s organic growth engine. This is a role for someone who loves experimentation, automation, and creativity as much as analytics, and who’s excited to work at the frontier of AI-driven search.

You’ll play a critical role in building the future of Synthesia’s organic growth engine, collaborating with smart, highly motivated peers. You’ll have the freedom to experiment, test bold ideas, and explore how AI and automation are reshaping search optimization. We move fast, value experimentation over theory, and encourage you to break the “SEO rulebook” when it leads to better outcomes.

Managing end-to-end SEO initiatives — from developing off-page systems that drive high-quality links and mentions, to optimizing landing pages, automating workflows, and extracting insights from data to inform strategy. We move very fast and prefer doing > talking.
