About HeyGen

Our ambition is to build technology that equips more people with the power to reach, captivate, and inspire audiences.

- Operate and iterate on our custom content generation system (built in n8n with Postgres).
- Apply interlinking strategy to published content using our internal reference database.
- Propose and test improvements to prompt structures and content workflows.\
- Own publishing readiness: finalize titles, slugs, meta data, and content formatting.
Who You Are
- 3–5 years of hands-on SEO or content operations experience.
- Familiar with AI-assisted content workflows (e.g. Jasper, ChatGPT, Copy.ai, Notion AI).
- Strong eye for content quality and an understanding of what makes pages rank in 2025.
- Self-sufficient, systems-minded, and comfortable learning fast in a technical environment.\
- Able to balance speed with precision across a high volume of pages.
Preferred Experience
- Experience with prompt design, structured content, or AI writing tools.
