Learn more about Design at Profound.
Profound is on a mission to help companies understand and control their AI presence. As AI-generated experiences shape how brands are discovered, trusted, and chosen, the quality of those experiences matters more and more.
Design is foundational to our product and our company. As a Product Designer at Profound, you’ll work on our core data visualization and content workflow tools.

Note From our Co-founder
In the evolving landscape of product development, exceptional design isn't merely a nice-to-have, it's foundational. As software engineering becomes increasingly accessible, it's taste, creativity, and thoughtful execution that differentiate outstanding products from the rest.
I believe deeply that design sits at the core of our success. At Profound, my goal is to build a design team renowned for setting a new standard of excellence, crafting experiences so compelling they become benchmarks in our industry.
