• Partner with Content, Product Marketing, and PLG Product to define content, schema, and UX patterns that increase visibility, reliability, and quality of our presence in AI-driven results

• Translate complex technical and AI-search concepts into simple, actionable narratives for non-technical stakeholders
• Represent Global SEO and PLG in relevant working groups (e.g., growth squads, AI/ML initiatives, analytics and attribution programs)
• Build strong, trust-based relationships with Engineering, WebOps, Product, Marketing, and regional teams to ensure alignment on priorities and trade-offs
• Create and maintain documentation, playbooks, and standards for technical SEO, AEO, and SEO QA processes
• Informally mentor teammates and partners, raising the overall SEO and AEO literacy of the PLG and Marketing organizations
