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. This is an opportunity to have deep ownership over our product and ship fast and ship often, while continuing to craft the experience for our users.
What You'll Do
* Design core product experiences end-to-end, from early exploration through launch and iteration
* Work closely with product managers and engineers to translate strategy and ambiguous problems into clear, thoughtful solutions
* Explore multiple directions quickly through sketches, flows, prototypes, and high-fidelity designs
* Sweat the details, fine tune layout shifts, typography, spacing, motion, and interactions
* Balance building good product focused on user needs, technical constraints, and business goals, while still keeping a high bar for craft
* Use user feedback, qualitative insights, and product intuition to refine and improve the product over time
* Contribute to and help evolve Profound's design language, systems, and product vision
* Participate in our Tuesday / Thursday design critiques to give and receive feedback on in progress design work
Who You Are
* You have 3+ years of experience designing digital products, ideally in a startup or fast-moving product company
* You're a strong generalist with taste; comfortable owning full stack of design assets, from flows to pixels to final product
* You care deeply about craft and believe great design is defined by clarity, simplicity, and execution
* You bring an entrepreneurial and product thinking mindset to design
* You like to experiment with AI, new tools, and ways of working; whether that's through new Figma plugins, using v0, Cursor, or other prototyping tools
* You're good at collaborating with product managers, engineers, and data scientists to work through solving problems
* You have a portfolio that shows thoughtful problem-solving and high-quality visual design
Bonus Points If
* You have experience working on a data visualization or a B2B marketing product
* You enjoy prototyping directly in code and like to ship directly to production using git and GitHub
* You blur the lines between where design ends and product / engineering work begins
* You can just do things
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.
If you're someone who believes in the transformative power of great design and wants to create work that genuinely shapes the future, join us. Let's redefine what's possible together.
