About the role
- 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.
Responsibilities
- Own Harness's organic discoverability strategy across traditional search engines and AI-driven answer engines (e.g. Google AIO, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude).
- 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.
- 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.
- Own the end-to-end web strategy for Harness.com, aligning site architecture, content, and UX with business goals (pipeline, product adoption, brand).
- Optimize key conversion paths across the site (product pages, solutions, resources, demos).
