Meet founders and department leads to finalize compensation, start date, hardware preferences, and welcome you to the team.

Everything you would want to ask first.

What is the work culture like at Local SEO Agency Ireland?

We value three things - craft, character, and curiosity. You should ship work you are proud of, collaborate with high ownership and zero drama, and actively want to learn the next layer down in modern AI and search algorithms.

Do I need extensive AI engineering experience to apply?

No - for non-AI engineering roles, what matters most is your curiosity and willingness to adopt AI as a multiplier in your daily workflow. Every team member works alongside copilots and agents; we train the specifics, we don't train the mindset.

What is your policy on hybrid and remote work?

Most engineering, design, and SEO roles enjoy flexible hybrid schedules aligned with our Dublin (Grand Canal Dock) or Ahmedabad (S.G. Highway) hubs. We also offer fully remote arrangements for specialized senior roles where timezone overlap works effectively.

What does a typical working day look like?

Async morning standup, uninterrupted deep-work focus blocks with AI tools, afternoon collaboration or client sync, and bi-weekly demo Fridays. We believe in being quiet on paperwork and loud on shipping results.

How do professional development and evaluations work?

• Every team member receives a €2,500 annual learning stipend for courses, books, and conferences, backed by biannual transparent compensation reviews.
