Why This Job is Featured on The SaaS Jobs
In B2B SaaS, organic acquisition is being reshaped by AI answer engines alongside traditional search, and this SEO/GEO Lead role sits directly at that intersection. Harvey operates an enterprise-grade platform with a global customer base, which makes discoverability less about single keywords and more about becoming a consistently cited source across multiple surfaces where buyers research complex solutions.
For a SaaS career, the role offers unusually broad leverage: building a search program that connects technical foundations, content systems, and revenue attribution. Ownership of both SEO and AEO/GEO measurement encourages a modern skill set that many SaaS companies are still forming, including experimentation discipline, pipeline-oriented reporting, and cross-functional influence with engineering and product marketing. Experience gained here tends to transfer well to other B2B SaaS environments where buyer journeys are long and credibility signals matter.
This position is best suited to a senior individual contributor who prefers setting standards and operating with end-to-end accountability. It will fit someone who enjoys blending technical SEO with analytics and stakeholder communication, and who is motivated by creating repeatable processes rather than one-off optimizations.

Job Description
Why Harvey
At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.
This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.
Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you.
At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.
Role Overview
We're hiring our first dedicated SEO / GEO Lead. You will own Harvey's visibility across both traditional search (Google, Bing) and the fast-growing AI answer layer: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, AI Mode, Claude, and emerging agentic interfaces.
This is a high-ownership individual-contributor role with a clear path to building a team. You'll define the roadmap, set the standards, and execute - partnering closely with content, product marketing, web, engineering, and data to make Harvey the authoritative answer wherever our buyers are looking.
The person who succeeds here is not an SEO purist and not an GEO theorist - they're someone who understands that both disciplines are now inseparable, and who can build the infrastructure and content strategy that wins in both worlds.
What You'll Do
Own Harvey's Organic Search Strategy
Define and execute the SEO strategy and roadmap across harvey.ai and all Harvey web properties, balancing quick wins with compounding investments.
Build and maintain an SEO playbook: processes, templates, and guardrails, that scales content production without sacrificing quality or search integrity.
Own the content calendar for SEO-driven pieces in partnership with content, PMM, engineers, spanning buyer journey stages from awareness to purchase.
Develop and own Harvey's AEO / GEO strategy: ensure Harvey is consistently cited, referenced, and surfaced when our buyers query AI answer engines.
Implement entity consistency across all Harvey web properties and optimize content for extractability.
Partner with thought leadership to grow Harvey's LLM citation footprint with earned mentions.
Build a monitoring infrastructure to track Harvey's presence and accuracy in AI-generated answers across major platforms.
Partner with engineering on web infrastructure decisions that affect crawlability and indexing
Establish SEO observability: automated alerting for ranking drops, crawl anomalies, indexing failures, and Core Web Vitals regressions.
Analytics, Measurement & Experimentation
Build and own analytics that track organic performance: from keyword rankings and impressions to pipeline attribution.
Design and run controlled SEO and CRO experiments with statistical rigor; translate results into recommendations and report findings to leadership.
Develop a measurement framework for AEO.
Connect organic performance to revenue outcomes: pipeline, demo requests, trial signups, and attributed ARR.
Cross-Functional Leadership
Collaborate with engineering on infrastructure and platform decisions that affect search performance.
Partner with content, PMM, and design to embed SEO and AEO best practices into the content creation workflow from the start.
Present SEO/AEO strategy, roadmap, and performance to marketing leadership and company stakeholders
Proactively identify and scope opportunities to grow the function
What You Have
Required
8+ years of hands-on SEO experience, with demonstrable and measurable results.
Recent, dedicated focus on AEO / GEO: you have built a program or owned a meaningful AEO workstream.
B2B SaaS background required: you understand enterprise buyer journeys, long sales cycles, and how to map content to pipeline, not just traffic.
Deep technical SEO fluency.
Proficiency with core SEO/GEO tools.
Familiarity with experimentation platforms (Statsig, Optimizely, or similar) and a working understanding of A/B test design and statistical significance.
Experience with international SEO and hreflang implementation (Harvey operates globally).
Data-driven mindset with the ability to turn analytics into prioritized action
Strong cross-functional communication
High agency and growth mindset
