We are looking for a Senior Content Optimization Manager to lead our SEO, GEO/AEO (Generative Engine Optimization), and content performance strategy. This isn’t a traditional marketing SEO role; it requires a technical approach to understand complex articles and developer workflows, and strong data analysis skills.
You will be joining the Developer Content Programs team. We produce, manage, and amplify high-quality technical content across our 3 Labs: Elasticsearch Labs, Observability Labs, and Security Labs. We also own the Elastic Dev X account and the Community YouTube channel. Our goal is to provide genuine technical value to practitioners (devs, SREs, and SOC analysts) by delivering content that is deep, accurate, and helpful. It will be your job to optimize the Labs content and make sure it's discoverable (whether on google or in LLMs like ChatGPT and Gemini), and then measure its performance and implement any insights.
You'll partner closely with our core team, as well as all of the engineers writing content and the broader PMM, SEO/GEO and content strategy teams at Elastic.
If you're a strategic problem solver, seasoned SEO specialist, data lover and gifted communicator - we’d love to meet you.
