From the employer
Profound is the fastest-growing AI marketing platform, used by 15% of the Fortune 500 including Comcast, Estée Lauder, and Walmart, and innovators like Ramp, MongoDB, and Figma. It is where marketing teams do the work: research, briefs, content, campaigns, reporting, all in one place, alongside agents that carry the load with them.
Built on 2B+ real user prompts and growing, Profound’s data shows you what people ask AI and what the models say back. Profound's AI Marketer joins that data with deep context about our customers to find the opportunities worth acting on, and then puts agents to work: automating reporting, drafting content, auditing pages for readability, running competitive research. It measures what works and gets better every day.
As an Implementation Manager, you'll own onboarding and enablement execution for our Scaled and Mid-Market customers, ensuring stakeholders are set up for success from day one. You'll run onboarding at scale through recurring sessions, strengthen the systems and curriculum that make the motion repeatable, and ensure customers realize value quickly — independently managing a high volume of implementations and adapting the playbook when customer circumstances require a different approach.
Partnering closely with Customer Success, Sales, Product, Engineering, and Data, you'll create a best-in-class onboarding experience. This is a build role. You are not stepping into a finished system — you are helping define how onboarding works at scale.

Evolve the implementation motion as our customer base grows, building a process that scales without proportional headcount
Surface product gaps, onboarding friction, and recurring issues to Customer Success and Product teams, and create or improve playbooks based on repeated experience
Serve as the internal expert on how customers actually use Profound — a dependable subject-matter resource for teammates — and translate that insight into stronger programs, content, and strategy
Who you are
4 or more years of experience in customer success, onboarding, implementation, or customer education
You understand the gap between “sold” and “successful,” and have owned the motion that closes it — consistently producing strong outcomes across demanding, high-volume engagements
You know how to tie implementation to the product value and communicate that to keep customers motivated through the process
Strong facilitator, comfortable leading group sessions, webinars, and office hours with stakeholders at varying levels of sophistication
Organized program owner who can build a repeatable system from scratch, keep it running, and demonstrate reliable performance across a broad portfolio
Skilled at handling difficult conversations, balancing short-term customer needs against longer-term program objectives, and maintaining customer trust in moments of ambiguity or change

Comfortable operating independently in ambiguity and building systems rather than inheriting them
Power user of AI tools who uses them to transform workflows, increase leverage, and drive meaningful efficiency gains
