Full Job Description

**Answer Engine Optimization (AEO/GEO) Manager** **Function:** Digital Marketing **Reports to:** VP, Digital Marketing **Location:** Austin, TX or Remote (United States) **About SailPoint** SailPoint is the leader in identity security for the modern enterprise. Founded in Austin in 2005, we are publicly traded, ranked #1 by revenue in identity governance and administration, named a 2026 Gartner Peer Insights™ Customers' Choice for IGA, and trusted by many of the world's largest and most regulated organizations. Our core values -- innovation, integrity, impact, and individuals -- guide how every SailPoint crew member shows up. As identity becomes the control plane for modern security, we are investing in the channels where our buyers actually make decisions. **About the Role** The way buyers research and select identity security and IGA platforms is changing fast. A meaningful and growing share of our prospects no longer start with Google search results. They start with prompts for ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Google's AI Overviews, and they take those answers seriously. Whether a company surfaces in those answers, and how it is described when it does, is an increasingly critical factor for pipeline and brand. This role focuses on **Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)** , also called **Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)**. You will own how SailPoint's brand, products, point of view, and category narrative show up when buyers ask AI engines questions about our space. Traditional SEO does not go away, and you will continue to run that program, but the center of gravity of this role is AEO. You will succeed by setting the strategy, executing the work that lives with you, and influencing SailPoint crew across product marketing, content, communications, customer marketing, web, and analyst relations to do their part. This is an individual contributor role, and you will report directly to the VP of Digital Marketing. **What You 'll Do ** **Own the AEO/GEO program end to end.
