About this role

  • The Guest Acquisition team is building the self-driving, AI-powered platform for profitable growth for small businesses
  • A crucial element of this growth engine is attracting new consumer demand for our restaurant customers through SEO and AEO/GEO
  • Owner’s acquisition engine first identifies what makes a given restaurant unique, evaluates local demand for its offerings, and assesses the most relevant competition to determine the best strategy for promoting that restaurant
  • Then, the platform automatically generates relevant website pages and content, monitors results over time, and evolves its strategy as it gets more data
  • Own the technical strategy for SEO/AEO systems at scale, translating ambiguous growth goals into a prioritized roadmap, clear metrics, and durable system architecture
  • Lead end-to-end delivery of major initiatives such as new ingestion sources, indexing and serving improvements, or content generation workflows, from design through launch and operational readiness
  • Raise the bar on reliability, quality, and observability across pipelines and services, building guardrails, alerting, dashboards, and incident-ready runbooks that enable sustained iteration
  • Drive a rigorous experimentation and measurement loop, partnering with product, data, and cross-functional teams to validate impact, diagnose regressions, and continuously improve performance
  • Mentor and multiply the team, setting engineering standards, reviewing designs, coaching other engineers, and aligning across teams where changes require shared ownership

Benefits

  • Work from anywhere: Our flexible policy lets you work from wherever you want.
  • Equity in Owner: All full-time employees in eligible countries receive pre-IPO equity in Owner.
  • Benefits to support your success: We set you up for success where you are and where you’re going.
  • Healthcare Coverage: We offer comprehensive health, dental and vision plans.
  • Unlimited PTO: Your schedule, your choice. We give our team members full empowerment to choose the time they want to work, and don’t micro-manage working hours.
  • Team retreats: We love building real friendships with everyone that we work with, so we do several retreats per year – to deepen our friendships, celebrate our wins, and plan our future.- We are looking for a mission-driven engineer who is passionate about their craft and committed to building incredible products for our customers
  • Able to collaborate tightly with Product, Data, and Design, and influence decisions without authority
  • Data and experimentation rigor
  • Strong technical leadership and end-to-end ownership
  • Systems thinking across the stack
  • Comfort defining success metrics, running controlled experiments, analyzing results, and debugging performance changes (rankings, traffic, conversion)
  • Operational excellence
  • Experience with crawling and indexing, content generation, templating, structured data, internal linking, canonicalization, and internationalization is a plus
  • Ability to set direction, drive alignment, and deliver multi-quarter initiatives from design through launch and iteration
  • Cross-functional partnership
  • Familiarity with SEO systems at scale
  • Able to reason about tradeoffs across ingestion, storage, serving, and quality controls, and to design durable architectures
  • Experience building reliable pipelines and services with strong observability, alerting, and incident-ready runbooks
