I would then establish an entity-led content architecture, structured-data standards, authoritative supporting content, and an off-site citation plan. Measurement would combine organic traffic and rankings with share of voice, cited-source visibility, branded mentions, zero-click exposure, and conversion quality. Describe how you would prioritize the Harness.com website roadmap when product launches and SEO improvements compete for resources. I would use a transparent scoring model based on business impact, strategic alignment, audience reach, conversion opportunity, effort, risk, and dependencies. Product-launch requirements would be planned with marketing and product teams early, while foundational SEO and performance work would be treated as durable platform investments. I would publish roadmap trade-offs, define owners and milestones, and revisit priorities using performance data. What technical SEO issues would you assess first on a high-traffic B2B SaaS website? I would assess crawlability and indexation, site architecture, canonicalization, redirects, page speed and Core Web Vitals, JavaScript rendering, internal linking, duplicate or thin pages, XML sitemaps, schema markup, and international-site implementation where applicable. I would connect each issue to affected business pages and potential pipeline impact. The output would be a prioritized remediation plan shared with engineering and content stakeholders. How would you improve conversion performance on product and solution pages? I would first establish baseline performance by audience, traffic source, device, and page intent, then identify friction through analytics, session behavior, user research, and form data. I would test clearer value propositions, proof points, information hierarchy, calls to action, navigation paths, and page speed improvements. Each experiment would have a defined hypothesis, success metric, guardrail metric, and documented learning for future iterations. How do you manage an external SEO agency while retaining strategic ownership? I set a clear operating model that defines business goals, deliverables, quality standards, reporting cadence, approval paths, and measurable outcomes. The agency can provide specialized execution and research, but internal strategy, prioritization, brand positioning, and final decisions remain owned by the web lead. I review recommendations critically, track implementation and outcomes, and hold regular performance reviews tied to agreed KPIs. Harness is the AI Software Delivery Platform company, led by technologist and entrepreneur Jyoti Bansal (founder of AppDynamics, acquired by Cisco for $3.7B). Harness has raised approximately $570M in funding and is valued at $5.5B, backed by leading investors including Goldman Sachs, Menlo Ventures, IVP, Unusual Ventures, Citi Ventures, and more. As AI accelerates code creation, the real bottleneck has shifted to everything after the code – testing, deployments, application security, reliability, compliance, and cost optimization. Harness brings AI and automation to this “outer loop,” helping teams ship software faster while maintaining security and governance throughout the entire software delivery lifecycle. Powered by Harness AI and the Software Delivery Knowledge Graph, the Harness Platform applies deep context and intelligent automation across the software delivery lifecycle with governance and policy-driven controls embedded throughout the platform. Over the past year, Harness powered over 185M deployments, 82M builds, 18T flag evaluations, 8M security scans, 9.1B optimized tests, 3T protected API calls, and helped manage $2.8B in cloud spend — enabling customers like United Airlines, Morningstar, and Choice Hotels to accelerate releases by up to 75%, reduce cloud costs by up to 60%, and achieve 10x DevOps efficiency. With a global team across 26 offices and 27 countries, Harness is shaping the future of AI software delivery — and we’re looking for exceptional talent to help us move even faster. ### 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.
