Content Lead

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 created a new practice area called Marketing Engineering, and Profound University is where the world learns it. There are no textbooks for Marketing Engineering. No established curricula. No credentialing bodies. The knowledge lives in the heads of a handful of practitioners, and the market is moving faster than anyone can document it. Profound University exists to close that gap through structured courses, certifications, and applied learning that make people genuinely capable of doing new work. As Content Lead, you will run the content production engine behind Profound University. You are the person who turns raw knowledge from internal experts, field practitioners, product teams, and research into structured, rigorous course material at high volume. You will write lesson scripts, build course architecture, manage production operations, coordinate on-camera talent, and make sure every course ships on time and holds up under scrutiny. You are building the definitive course catalog for a field that does not have one yet. You have editorial ownership over how it gets structured, written, and produced. The content ships as a product that people study, get graded on, and earn certifications against. This is greenfield, high-volume, and yours to build.
