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.
Profound is on a mission to help companies understand and control their AI presence. As an Analytics Engineer, you will build and own the product analytics foundation at Profound. You will define success metrics, map the user journey, and uncover insights that shape how we build and improve the product. Your work will help the entire company understand what drives engagement, where users drop off, and how we can make the platform more valuable to our customers.

Define and maintain core product metrics and ensure they are modeled cleanly and reliably
Analyze user journeys to identify friction, improve activation, and drive growth
Respond to one-off customer analysis requests by delivering custom solutions and insights

Partner with engineers to instrument events, maintain data ingestion pipelines, and uphold high data quality
Who you are
Fluency in SQL and experience with Python

Strong data modeling skills and a clean approach to defining metrics
Experience at a B2B SaaS or product-focused company
3 or more years of experience in analytics, data, or product roles focused on user behavior and product usage
Strong product sense and ability to turn data into clear insights for product and go-to-market teams
Strong sense of ownership and accountability for data quality and reliability
Motivated by ownership of the entire product analytics function at an early stage company
Interested in shaping how usage is measured and how product decisions are made
