Turning organic
search into measurable
growth & revenue.

I'm Kiran Babu Thatha — a senior SEO and product analyst with 8+ years shaping organic strategy across high-growth e-commerce and tech platforms. I work where technical SEO, data, and AI intersect: from millions of pages on global stores to ML-powered internal linking and LLM-driven content systems.

My background sits at the seam between SEO strategy and applied data engineering. I started as a support engineer in banking and HR systems — writing SQL, automating thousands of manual workflows — before moving to Berlin for a Master's in Digital Engineering and joining Wayfair, where I scaled from intern to Senior Product Analyst.

At Wayfair, I owned organic growth across multiple international markets, partnering with Engineering, Product, and Content to align organic visibility with revenue. I shipped ML-based sentence-transformer models for internal linking, built a Python AI system for multilingual content generation, and ran end-to-end experimentation programs — 15+ A/B tests, full statistical design through rollout decisions.

What I care about: scale without manual toil. Most of my work ends in an automated pipeline, a self-service tool for non-technical teams, or a dashboard that replaces a recurring meeting. I'm bullish on AI-driven search (GEO/LLM optimisation) as the next layer of the discipline — and I've been integrating OpenAI and Anthropic APIs into production SEO workflows since well before it was the default.

Outside of work I'm a hackathon person — runner-up at the Cyprus Hackathon for Workwise, an AI agent app — and I read widely on culture, travel, and how systems get built.

A decade of building.

From banking ETL pipelines in Hyderabad to multilingual SEO at Wayfair Berlin — every role has been about scale, automation, and decisions backed by data.
