Hey @julianrubisch! I'm a SEO (been at it since early 2021) and I believe it comes down to if you want to be able to do SEO yourself and how much time you could dedicate to learning/implementing it.
Going the DIY route can be awesome for the long-term but time-consuming in the short-term - if you'd rather get quicker results and hire, I'd recommend starting with a SEO audit because I just checked out your site and its actually missing important foundational optimizations that should ideally be fixed before anything else.
Also, don't know how familiar/unfamiliar you are with Ahrefs, but I don't believe it'd be super helpful if, in your case, you're not too familiar with SEO. Last thing - if you'd rather DIY, some great resources for learning SEO for free are the Backlinko, SEMrush, and Ahrefs blogs and YouTube channels.
Hope that helps! Feel free to lmk if you have any follow-up questions.
