Sales Manager, Enterprise

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.

As a Manager, Enterprise Sales, you will lead and scale our enterprise sales team, driving strategic revenue growth with a consultative, customer-first approach. You will oversee complex deal cycles, coach Enterprise Account Executives, and build the motion that wins high-impact, multi-stakeholder deals in a rapidly evolving AI landscape.
