# Corporate Development Lead

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. We are hiring a Corporate Development Lead to identify the highest-impact opportunities for M&A across the business, and to execute on them. You will work with leadership and teams across Profound to spot where acquiring product, talent, or data could move us faster, weigh build versus buy, and then own the deal end to end: sourcing, diligence, negotiation, close, and integration. This is not an origination-only seat. You will be in the room
