About this role
The Role
As Technical AEO Manager, you own Aiven's visibility in AI answer engines. Developers and engineering leaders now find, compare and choose infrastructure through ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and AI Overviews more than through a results page, and increasingly the one asking is a coding agent such as Claude Code, Cursor or Copilot, provisioning a Kafka cluster or debugging a PostgreSQL connection on a developer's behalf. Your job is to make Aiven the answer in both cases, make sure an agent acting on that answer can complete the task through our docs, MCP server, CLI, Terraform provider and API, and prove what that visibility delivers in signups, pipeline and revenue.

- As Technical AEO Manager, you own Aiven's visibility in AI answer engines. Developers and engineering leaders now find, compare and choose infrastructure through ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity and AI Overviews more than through a results page, and increasingly the one asking is a coding agent such as Claude Code, Cursor or Copilot, provisioning a Kafka cluster or debugging a PostgreSQL connection on a developer's behalf.

You serve two audiences with different needs: developers and builders who want deep, accurate technical content, and engineering decision makers who want to understand why Aiven for cost, reliability and scale.
- Key ResponsibilitiesAI visibility and agent performance measurement: Own how Aiven measures its presence in AI answers. Run Peec and Ahrefs for competitive visibility and citation tracking, and maintain a curated set of high-intent prompts across both audiences, including agentic tasks such as provision, configure, connect and troubleshoot. Build the analysis the platforms don't offer: product-alignment scoring, intent gap detection, and end-to-end task completion across leading coding agents, tra
