Profound is the marketing platform for the age of AI search. The way brands reach people is being rewritten — AI models like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Mode are now the answer layer between companies and their customers. We built the platform marketers use to understand, measure, and win in that world: the analytics, intelligence, and agent automation that turn AI search from a threat into a competitive advantage. We went from 0 to a $1B valuation in 18 months. Revenue grew 100x last year. Our customers include 15% of the Fortune 500 like Walmart, Wayfair and U.S. Bank, and innovators like Ramp, MongoDB, and Figma. We are backed by Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, LSVP, and Khosla Ventures — and we are moving fast enough that the people joining now are building the playbook everyone who comes after them will run. As our VP of Strategic Partnerships, you will architect and lead the global partnership strategy that establishes Profound as the definitive platform for AI search optimization. You will define the vision, build the team, and personally drive the highest-leverage relationships across the AI ecosystem — from major agency networks and global systems integrators to hyperscale cloud marketplaces and enterprise B2B platforms. This role operates at the executive level, sitting at the intersection of product strategy, revenue, and market positioning. You will own the full partnership lifecycle while leading cross-functional alignment to ensure deep integrations and joint go-to-market programs deliver transformational value for Profound and our partners. What you'll do - Define and execute Profound's global partnership strategy across product, channel, agency, and data partnerships — with direct accountability for partnership-sourced pipeline and revenue - Build and scale a Global Systems Integrator (GSI) program, establishing and deepening relationships with the likes of Accenture, Deloitte, Bain, Cap Gemini etc. - Own and grow Profound's presence within the Agency ecosystem — forging strategic alliances with holding companies and independent digital agencies who are shaping how brands approach AI search and discoverability - Develop and lead hyperscale go-to-market programs through cloud marketplaces including AWS Marketplace, Google Cloud Marketplace, and Azure — driving co-sell motions, committed spend agreements, and enterprise co-marketing investments - Structure and negotiate complex, executive-level partnership agreements balancing commercial terms, technical integration requirements, and long-term strategic value - Lead a cross-functional partnership function working closely with Product, Engineering, Analytics, Marketing, and Sales to take partnerships from concept through commercial launch - Serve as the executive point of contact for Profound's most strategic partners — leading QBRs, tracking performance, and proactively identifying expansion and upsell opportunities - Drive joint marketing initiatives, co-selling motions, and customer enablement programs alongside Marketing and Sales leadership - Represent Profound externally as a thought leader in the AI ecosystem — at industry events, in partner announcements, and through content and case studies - Maintain a living view of the AI ecosystem landscape and competitive dynamics, informing product and go-to-market strategy at the executive level Who you are - 7+ years in strategic partnerships, business development, or alliances in high-growth technology or SaaS, with a demonstrated track record of building programs that drive significant revenue and product value - Deep experience running a GSI program - Proven experience navigating the Agency ecosystem — you understand how holding companies and independent agencies make technology decisions and how to position a platform as essential to their client work - Hands-on experience driving co-sell and marketplace programs through AWS, GCP, or Azure at scale, including marketplace listings, co-sell activation, and cloud-committed revenue motions - Deep fluency in the AI landscape — including LLM providers, AI platforms, search technologies, and the broader application layer — and a clear point of view on where it's heading - Executive-level communicator and relationship builder with a track record of closing complex, multi-stakeholder deals involving commercial terms, data licensing, technical integrations, and joint go-to-market commitments - Existing C-suite and VP-level relationships across AI platform companies, agency networks, cloud providers, and enterprise SaaS - Experience leading and scaling partnerships teams in a high-growth startup environment - Background in analytics, marketing technology, SEO, or SaaS platforms serving enterprise customers is a strong plus Note: All official communication from Profound will come from a @tryprofound.com email address.

We built the platform marketers use to understand, measure, and win in that world: the analytics, intelligence, and agent automation that turn AI search from a threat into a competitive advantage.

We are backed by Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, LSVP, and Khosla Ventures — and we are moving fast enough that the people joining now are building the playbook everyone who comes after them will run. As our Recruiter, you will be the flexible engine of our talent team. Where our GTM and Technical recruiters go deep on a single domain, you go wide, owning full-cycle hiring across whatever the business needs most at any given moment, from technical to GTM to G&A, plus the high-priority, first-of-their-kind searches that don't fit neatly into any one box. This is a true generalist role for someone who thrives on variety and wants to plug into the most important open need, whatever it happens to be that week. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Own full-cycle recruiting across any function we prioritize, including engineering, sales, marketing, operations, finance, and the net-new roles that emerge as we grow - Flex between requisitions and reprioritize quickly as company needs shift, partnering with our GTM and Technical recruiters to absorb overflow and take point on net-new or unconventional searches - Stand up sourcing strategies for unfamiliar or first-of-their-kind roles, building the playbook where none exists yet - Partner with founders and hiring managers to define scorecards, interview loops, and tight SLAs for every search you pick up - Craft crisp outreach and a high-touch candidate experience that reflects our mission and pace, from first message to signed offer - Keep the funnel instrumented through ATS hygiene, conversion data, and fast iteration on what's working WHO YOU ARE - A versatile, full-cycle recruiter who has hired across multiple functions and is energized by variety rather than a single specialty - Comfortable with ambiguity: you can pick up an unfamiliar role, get smart fast, and build a sourcing plan from scratch - High-agency and adaptable, able to reprioritize on a dime as the business changes underneath you - A creative sourcer with a real network and the persistence to build one where it doesn't exist - Data- and process-minded, tracking time to fill and source yield and knowing how to unblock bottlenecks - A track record at fast-growing startups, ideally familiar with the NYC ecosystem LOCATION This is an on-site role based in our NYC or SF office, designed for builders who thrive on speed, iteration, and meaningful impact. For this role, the expected base salary range is $160,000 to $215,000 (NYC and SF). Profound's total compensation package is designed to be competitive and includes base salary, equity, and a full range of benefits and perks. Final compensation will depend on factors such as your skills, experience, qualifications, and location, and will be determined during the interview process. Our recruiting team will share more details about the full compensation package and benefits as you move through hiring. #LI-PRO Note: All official communication from Profound will come from a @tryprofound.com email address.

We built the platform marketers use to understand, measure, and win in that world: the analytics, intelligence, and agent automation that turn AI search from a threat into a competitive advantage. We went from 0 to a $1B valuation in 18 months. Revenue grew 100x last year. Our customers include 15% of the Fortune 500 like Walmart, Wayfair and U.S. Bank, and innovators like Ramp, MongoDB, and Figma. We are backed by Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, LSVP, and Khosla Ventures — and we are moving fast enough that the people joining now are building the playbook everyone who comes after them will run. We're looking for a creative and strategic creator marketer to build Profound's creator program from scratch. You'll partner with the marketers, SEOs, and brand builders who have real audiences in our space and turn them into authentic voices for the answer-engine era. This isn't a campaign coordinator role. It's a builder role. THE ROLE We're hiring a Creator Marketing Manager to build the program that turns the right creators into the loudest voices in our category. You'll identify the marketers, SEOs, content strategists, and brand builders who have authentic audiences we want to reach, and build genuine, high-impact partnerships with them. One of your biggest advantages: Profound produces original research and proprietary data on how AI models represent brands. You'll use that data as creative fuel, giving creators unique angles and insights they can't get anywhere else. The best partnerships won't feel like ads. They'll feel like the most useful content those creators have ever made. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Build and own Profound's creator program. Design the strategy, define the tiers, and build the engine from the ground up. - Identify and cultivate the right creators. Find the marketers, SEOs, and brand builders with authentic, engaged audiences in our space. Fit, expertise, and authenticity matter more than follower count. - Manage 1:1 creator partnerships end-to-end. Own always-on relationships and campaign-specific activations. How our content comes to life in the creator ecosystem is a direct result of your work. - Turn Profound's research into creator gold. Partner with research and content teams to surface data and insights that give creators genuinely unique things to say. - Build a creator community, not just a roster. Bring partners into the Profound orbit through early product access, data briefings, and community moments so they're invested in the category. - Collaborate cross-functionally. Work with Social Distribution, Content, PMM, and Comms to amplify creator work and ensure it ladders up to bigger campaign beats. - Own measurement. Build the framework for how creator marketing connects to awareness, engagement, and pipeline. Report on what's working and reallocate accordingly. - Stay ahead of the ecosystem. Know which creators are rising, which platforms are shifting, and how algorithm changes should inform strategy. WHO YOU ARE - 3 to 5+ years in creator or influencer marketing, ideally in B2B, SaaS, or marketing technology where you're reaching a professional audience. - You have relationships. You come with a network of B2B creators you've worked with or can credibly reach. You know the names, the niches, and who actually moves their audience. - You know how to use data as a creative brief. You don't just hand creators a product demo. You give them a story, a stat, a provocative angle. - You think in programs, not posts. You build repeatable systems: clear briefs, structured tiers, playbooks that scale. - You understand the difference between reach and resonance. You care whether the right people engaged, not just how many did. - You're a strong collaborator. You pull context from research, PMM, and product and turn it into great creator briefs without needing formal authority. - Bonus: experience in marketing technology, AI, and Martech. Familiarity with the AEO and SEO creator ecosystem across LinkedIn, YouTube, and newsletters. You likely: - Have run an always-on creator program, not just one-off campaigns. - Can show programs you built and the results they drove. - Have briefed creators on complex or technical topics and gotten great content out of it. - Have worked somewhere you had to explain a new category, not just a new product. - Want to build something, not just join something. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS For this role, the expected base salary range is $120,000 to $180,000, plus equity and a full suite of benefits and perks. Final compensation will depend on your experience and fit. This is an on-site role in our Union Square office.
