The posting

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.

What you'll do

  • Own accounting, audit, and tax functions across the company, including deal desk, payroll and procurement functions as well
  • Work closely with our third-party accounting firm by reviewing deliverables, managing day-to-day accounting tasks, and ensuring timely monthly closes

  • Lay the foundation for audit readiness and help evaluate external auditors and tax advisors
  • Maintain and optimize financial systems including QuickBooks and Ramp, and help plan for an ERP transition

  • Background in audit or accounting strongly preferred

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
