SEO & AEO

WE ARE AN APPLIED AI LAB BUILDING END-TO-END SOFTWARE AGENTS.

We're the makers of Devin, the first AI software engineer.

Our team is extremely talent-dense. Among our founding team, we have world-class competitive programmers, former founders, and leaders from companies at the cutting edge of AI including Scale AI, Palantir, Cursor, Waymo, Tesla, Lunchclub, Modal, Google DeepMind, and Nuro.

Building Devin is just the first step—our hardest challenges still lie ahead. If you’re excited to solve some of the world’s biggest problems and build AI that can reason on real-world tasks, apply to join us.

The Role

Search is changing rapidly. People still search Google, but increasingly they discover products through AI assistants, answer engines, technical communities, and other new interfaces.

We're looking for an SEO & AEO leader to build Cognition's organic demand engine from the ground up.

You'll own both the strategy and execution behind how Cognition gets discovered by the people and companies looking for what we're building—from engineers researching AI software development to enterprise technology leaders evaluating how to bring agentic software engineering into their organizations.

This is not a traditional SEO role, and it is not a traditional content marketing role.

Product Marketing owns our core positioning, messaging, product content, research, and customer stories. Your job is to turn that expertise into a search-optimized content engine that captures high-intent demand and converts it into pipeline.

You'll identify the searches we need to win, determine the right experience for each search, create and optimize the pages and resources needed to capture that demand, build our authority both on and off our website, and continuously improve our ability to rank, get cited, engage, and convert.

You'll have significant ownership over technical SEO, content strategy and production, on-page and off-page SEO, information architecture, enterprise search, AI-search visibility, and organic conversion.
