About Us SEO Dons is a fast-growing UK SEO agency. We rank solar and renewable energy installers above competitors with 10x their review count — through smart technical SEO, programmatic location pages, and a network of exact-match-domain (EMD) lead-generation sites. We're scaling fast and need a developer who can build and deploy SEO-optimised websites at speed using AI tooling. The Role You'll build and maintain client websites and our own EMD portfolio. The twist: you'll work with AI tools (primarily Claude Code) to write, edit, and deploy code — not by hand from scratch. We need someone who understands how to direct an AI coding assistant effectively, review its output, and ship clean, fast, crawlable sites. This is roughly: • 60% building & editing websites (Astro static sites, location pages, on-page SEO), • 25% directing Claude Code / AI tools to generate site builds and content frameworks, • 15% technical SEO implementation and fixes What You'll Do • Build static websites using Astro SSG + Tailwind CSS, deployed via Netlify (we deploy through the Netlify API/CLI), • Use Claude Code to scaffold sites, write components, and automate repetitive build tasks — then review and correct its output, • Create programmatic location pages at scale (2,500+ words each, unique local content — never template-swapping town names), • Implement on-page SEO: meta tags, header structure, internal linking, schema markup (LocalBusiness, FAQ, Review schema), • Migrate older sites and fix technical issues (e.g. ensuring crawlers see fully rendered HTML, fixing redirects, adding security headers), • Manage DNS records and domain setup, • Use SEO data tools (DataForSEO, Google Search Console) to inform builds Must-Have Skills • Hands-on experience with Claude Code (or strong experience with another AI coding assistant — Cursor, Copilot, etc. — and willing to learn Claude Code fast), • Solid understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and modern static site frameworks (Astro preferred; React/Next.js experience is a plus), • Working knowledge of technical SEO: schema markup, page speed (Core Web Vitals), crawlability, internal linking, meta optimisation, • Comfort with Git, command-line / terminal basics, and API-based deployment, • Excellent written English (you'll be writing SEO content and page copy), • Self-directed and able to work from terse instructions — we move fast and don't over-explain Nice-to-Have • Experience with Netlify, Tailwind CSS v4, or OVH DNS, • Familiarity with local SEO (Google Business Profile, citations, location targeting), • Experience in the solar / renewables or home-improvement niche, • Tailwind + Astro combined project examples How to Apply • Send a short message telling us one website you've built with AI assistance and what the AI did vs. what you did., • Include links to 2–3 live sites you've built or worked on (Astro or static sites preferred)., • Answer this: "A React single-page-app site ranks badly because Google sees an empty HTML shell. What's your fix?" — a short, practical answer is fine., • Put the word "DONS-DEV" at the top of your application so we know you read the full post., • We review applications that follow all four steps first.
