Job Description

Profound is the marketing platform for the AI era. As people increasingly turn to ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Gemini to decide what to buy, we give brands the intelligence to see how AI represents them and the Agents to act on it. Today, ~13% of the Fortune 500, plus companies like Ramp, Figma, Chime, Calendly, and DocuSign, use Profound to turn AI Search from a black box into a measurable growth channel. Backed by Lightspeed, Sequoia, Kleiner Perkins, and Khosla Ventures at a $1B valuation, we're a lean, fast-moving team across NYC, SF, Buenos Aires, and London, shipping at a relentless pace and defining a new category at the biggest shift in marketing in 25 years. If you want to do the best work of your career at the frontier of AI, come build it with us. We are hiring for Strategic Finance and Operations as a high-impact, early finance hire to help build the financial backbone of one of the fastest-growing companies in AI. This is a true Swiss army knife role, hands-on, fast-moving, and high-visibility. You will partner with every team at Profound, and no two weeks will look the same. The ideal candidate holds themselves to a high bar, moves quickly without sacrificing precision, and thrives when given ownership to lead work from start to finish.

Job Responsibility

  • Drive strategic analyses that inform how we price, invest, and compete, translating complex data into clear recommendations for the business
  • Partner with Sales, RevOps, Marketing, and Engineering as the connective tissue between Finance and the rest of the company
  • Help build the financial infrastructure for a company expanding internationally
  • Build and maintain financial models that drive planning, investment decisions, and long-term growth
  • Take on high-impact ad hoc projects that do not fit neatly into a job description but provide outsized leverage to the business

Requirements

  • 3 to 5 years of experience in strategic finance, FP&A, investment banking, management consulting, or a similarly rigorous analytical role, with high-growth SaaS experience strongly preferred
  • Technically sharp and able to turn ambiguous data into a narrative that drives strategic decision-making
  • Fluent in SaaS business models and able to connect metrics to the operating decisions that move them
  • Excellent written and verbal communicator who can make complex ideas land with any audience
  • High ownership and low ego, caring more about getting it right than getting credit
  • Naturally curious with a bias toward action, eager to dig in, figure it out, and move things forward without waiting to be asked

What we offer

  • equity
  • full range of benefits and perks
