Jobbeschreibung

The groundwork for inbound is live: programmatic pages across 500+ document types, an llms.txt index, an MCP server. What it doesn’t have is someone who owns the funnel and the number.

The number is inbound qualified pipeline . Not traffic, not impressions. Meetings with real buyers that exist because of channels you built, counted when sales accepts them. An engineer builds your tooling. You own everything else.

What you’ll do

The charter

Own inbound end to end

Every channel that can bring a lead in is yours to test. SEO, content, landing pages, paid experiments, events — you ship yourself, not through an agency.

Get Talonic cited by AI, not just ranked by Google

GEO, AEO, answer engines. Talonic already has an llms.txt and an MCP server. You extend that signal into every relevant AI assistant and knowledge base.

Test fast, kill what doesn’t produce

One channel that produces beats six that impress. You go deep on what works and stop everything else quickly.

Use AI to do the work of a team

Research, production, distribution, analysis. You build systems with AI — you don’t just use it.

Report inbound qualified pipeline, not vanity metrics

Every channel has a number next to it, and you can defend both. Traffic without meetings doesn’t count.

What success looks like

The scorecard

PIPELINE

Qualified meetings arrive every month from channels you built

Not one-off spikes. A repeatable inbound motion that runs as a system, not a heroic effort.

CHANNELS

Every channel has a number next to it, and you can defend both

One channel scaled deep, not six touched shallow. You know what each channel costs and what it produces.

SYSTEM

The funnel runs as a system, not a heroic effort

You’ve built something that keeps working without you having to touch every piece every week.

Who you are

The profile

// Strong fit

• You ship yourself Pages, content, campaigns, tracking. You don’t wait for someone else to build the thing before you can test it.
• You know classic SEO and AI discoverability GEO, AEO, answer engines — you understand how AI assistants discover and cite content, not just how Google ranks it.

• You deliver strategy decks and wait for others to ship The output here is pipeline, not slide decks.
• You report reach when asked for pipeline Impressions, traffic, and MQLs that don’t close aren’t the number. Qualified meetings are.
• You have only marketed with big budgets at late-stage companies This is zero-to-one. The constraints are real and the ownership is total.
