Conversion Rate Optimization Specialist (Contractor)

Location : Austin, TX or Remote
Reports To : Chief Digital Officer
Team : Revenue Analytics

The Opportunity

At Intellibright, traffic is not the finish line. Conversion is where performance is proven.

We invest heavily in driving qualified demand across paid media, SEO, and content. The Conversion Rate Optimization Specialist owns the next multiplier. Turning that demand into measurable business outcomes.

This role is for a hands-on optimizer who understands that small, disciplined improvements in user experience, clarity, and flow can unlock outsized gains in revenue. You will analyze how visitors behave, identify where intent breaks down, and systematically remove friction across websites, landing pages, and forms.

This is not about making pages prettier. It is about making them perform.

As a contractor, you will work directly with strategy, analytics, and media teams to ensure on-site experience aligns with traffic intent and campaign goals. Your work will amplify ROI across every channel we run.
