SEO & AEO Manager

ABOUT SUNO We're building the world's first creative entertainment platform, where the entire world can feel the joy and fulfilment of making music. Music is for everyone: Our users include everyone from grandmothers creating songs for their loved ones, to Grammy winners using Suno Studio, our power tool, to make the most popular hits in the world. Building the future of entertainment requires ambition. The pace is fast, the problems are hard, and the work demands ownership and intensity. For the right people, it’s incredibly rewarding: a chance to shape a new medium, work with a small team that cares deeply about quality, make music, drink too much coffee, and build something that millions of people use to express themselves in ways that were never before possible. Suno is the fastest growing consumer entertainment company and the leader in AI music. We are backed by leading investors including Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Matrix Partners, NVentures (venture arm of NVIDIA). Founded in 2023 by Harvard alumni with a shared passion for music, Suno has quickly grown to 200 employees empowering over 100 million people to create original songs. In 2025, the company raised a $250 million Series C to continue building innovative products that amplify creativity and imagination. ABOUT THE ROLE Search is no longer a list of blue links: it’s an answer engine, and Suno needs to be the answer in every language, on every platform, in every market where our next wave of creators lives. You will be our first SEO & AEO hire, building the organic discovery engine from scratch. That means owning strategy across traditional search, AI answer engines, and whatever surfaces come next – working directly with engineering and performance marketing, and shipping without bottlenecks. You will be building and running agentic systems at scale – not just using tools, but building AEO and SEO systems that never before existed. We expect this person to build agentic systems that change what is possible for a team of one.
