About AirOps

AirOps is the full-service platform for brand growth in the age of AI search. As consumers shift from traditional search engines to platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, the entire ruleset of growth is being rewritten. Buyers now rely on agents to discover, recommend, and purchase products and services for them. If your brand isn't part of the answer, you aren't in the running.

Our platform offers everything a brand needs to get found, recommended, and earn trust. We work with category leaders, including teams at Ramp, Chime, Airbnb, ServiceNow, and Rippling, to drive visibility and accelerate growth from AI search.

Backed by Greylock, Unusual Ventures, Wing VC, and Founder Collective, we're headquartered in San Francisco, New York, and Montevideo.

About the role

As a Forward Deployed Engineer at AirOps, you’ll work directly with enterprise clients to turn AI search and growth strategy into measurable outcomes. You’ll use the AirOps platform to configure, adapt, and scale playbooks that help leading brands stay visible and competitive as discovery shifts across AI search engines.
This is a high-ownership role for someone who likes being close to the customer, the product, and the impact.

  • Excellent project management and communication skills, with the ability to keep internal teams and customers aligned across multiple workstreams

  • High ownership, strong judgment, and comfort operating in a fast-moving environment where customer needs, product feedback, and delivery priorities intersect

Nice to haves

  • Familiarity with AI search, GEO/AEO strategy, or how brands are discovered across LLMs and answer engines

  • Comfort working with data from tools like Google Search Console and GA4

  • Experience at an early or growth-stage B2B SaaS company

  • Experience turning customer feedback into product recommendations, internal documentation, or enablement materials
