SEO and AI Search Manager

Alan Piggott is an Irish SEO and AI search specialist who works on generative engine optimisation (GEO) and answer engine optimisation (AEO), open to remote in-house roles in Ireland.

I've worked in SEO since 2019, first alongside software roles at Sonitus Systems and Slack, then full time as SEO Manager for 20+ brands at Granite Digital in Ireland, and now at Rocket Agency in Sydney.

I'm an Irish citizen from Westmeath, so I need no visa sponsorship, and I'm open to remote roles anywhere in Ireland.

How I Work

Pages Built To Convert

I build location, industry, service and product pages around what buyers search for, and rework layouts so more visits turn into orders and enquiries.

AI Search

I get brands named and cited in ChatGPT, Gemini and Google's AI answers, and track the visits and bookings those answers send.

Engineering And AI

Before SEO full time I worked in software, as a developer at Sonitus Systems and an engineer at Slack. I use AI coding agents every day to build my own SEO tools, like an internal linking engine that suggests exact link placements from Search Console data.

  • Python
  • Go
  • SQL
  • JavaScript
  • Git
  • Claude Code
  • ChatGPT
