### **Position Summary**



Harness is looking for a highly strategic Web Strategy & AEO/SEO Lead to own the global website experience and organic discoverability strategy for Harness.com. This role sits at the intersection of web strategy, SEO/AEO, content architecture, and growth and is responsible for ensuring Harness is discoverable across traditional search engines and AI-driven discovery surfaces (LLMs, answer engines, zero-click experiences).

You will act as the single-threaded owner of website strategy and offsite strategy: setting direction, defining standards, prioritizing initiatives, and orchestrating execution across internal partners and external vendors.



### **What You’ll Do**



#### **AEO & Discoverability**



- Own Harness’s organic discoverability strategy across traditional search engines *and* AI-driven answer engines (e.g. Google AIO, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude).
- Define and evolve an AEO / AEO strategy focused on entity authority, structured content, use-case clarity, and off-site citations optimized for LLM citation and summarization.
- Partner with Product Marketing and Content to ensure product positioning, narratives, and use cases are reflected in search- and AI-readable site architecture.
- Lead keyword strategy, content gap analysis, and competitive audits with emphasis on intent, topics, and entities over keyword volume.
- Establish standards for technical SEO, structured data, internal linking, and content templates that scale across modules and solutions.
- Own performance measurement across classic SEO metrics *and* indicators of AI discoverability (citations, visibility, zero-click exposure).
- Manage and direct external SEO / AEO agencies or vendors, setting strategy, reviewing output, and holding them accountable to performance outcomes.



#### **Web Strategy & Ownership**



- Own the end-to-end web strategy for Harness.com, aligning site architecture, content, and UX with business goals (pipeline, product adoption, brand).
- Act as the primary owner of the website roadmap, balancing strategic initiatives with ongoing production needs.
- Continuously evolve the website to reflect product launches, positioning updates, and market trends.



#### **Conversion & Performance Optimization**



- Optimize key conversion paths across the site (product pages, solutions, resources, demos).
- Run experiments (A/B tests, messaging iterations, layout changes) to improve engagement and conversion rates.
- Partner with demand gen on landing pages and campaign experiences.



### **About you**



- 6+ years of experience in SEO in a B2B SaaS or tech environment.
- Experience owning web and organic growth strategy through influence, prioritization, and vendor management, not just hands-on execution.
- Proven experience owning and operating a high-traffic, high-impact website.
- Strong hands-on SEO expertise (technical, on-page, and content)
- Strong understanding of B2B buyer journeys and how websites support demand generation.
- A proactive operator who sees problems, proposes solutions, and drives them to completion.


**Nice to have**

- Experience in DevOps, cloud, or developer-focused products
- Familiarity with marketing automation, personalization, or experimentation tools
- Experience partnering with global teams and supporting international sites
- Basic HTML/CSS knowledge or comfort working closely with developers
