Profound: The Marketing Platform for the Age of AI Search
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.
Role Overview: Account Executive (Agencies)
As an Account Executive focused on agencies, you will own the sales cycle with creative, media, and digital agencies that help the world’s biggest brands shape their use of AI. You will play a key role in expanding Profound’s agency partnerships, helping agencies manage, measure, and govern how AI shows up across their client work, operations, and campaigns.
