Agency context

Built for agency work, not generic remote hiring.

SEO Agency accounts create pressure around ranking movement, content delivery, technical blockers, link velocity, and slow client patience. Vela searches for operators who understand audits, content plans, technical tickets, rank movement, and monthly reporting, not generic remote hires who need the agency model explained from scratch.

Working-call vetting
  • A live working-call exercise around a workflow audit with scattered reporting inputs and repeated manual handoffs.
  • Tool familiarity across Ahrefs, Semrush, Screaming Frog, Google Search Console, GA4, plus the project and communication surfaces the agency already uses.
  • Prompt judgment: turning messy account context into client-ready output without inventing facts.
AI month one
  • Workflow documentation and automation briefs from call notes, task movement, and reporting context.
  • Weekly summaries that connect visibility changes to what the team shipped and what happens next.
  • Documented workflow improvements from the operator's first four weeks back to the team.

Every placement includes 4 live 1-on-1 AI instructor sessions in the first four weeks post-placement.
