As the Verticals PM, you will own Profound's highest-growth emerging segments: Shopping, Ads, self-serve, agencies, and new bets. You will go deep with customers in each segment, identify their specific unmet needs, and build solutions that are meaningfully differentiated from Profound's horizontal platform. This role is equal parts product strategy, customer obsession, and commercial instinct, and it's one of the most directly revenue-impactful roles at the company.
What You'll Do- Craft the strategy for Shopping, Ads, self-serve, agencies, and new verticals that accelerates Profound into becoming the essential platform for marketing teams in these segments
- Define how retailers, advertisers, and agencies use Profound to track, understand, and improve their brand's visibility across AI-powered answer engines
- Build the self-serve motion that lets customers onboard and extract value from Profound without high-touch sales, expanding reach and revenue
- Develop product capabilities and workflows designed for agencies managing AI presence on behalf of multiple brands
- Expedite execution across engineering, design, data, and marketing by creating clarity, making decisions, and managing scope
- Optimize the team for velocity and quality shots on goal
- Be in front of customers every day to do discovery, get feedback, and sell
- Partner with Sales, Marketing, and Engagement teams so that we tell compelling stories to prospects and customers
Who You Are- 5 or more years of experience building excellent software products, ideally in a startup or fast-moving company
- Domain expertise in ads, ecommerce, retail, marketing technology, agency workflows, or self-serve B2B SaaS
- Ability to lead cross-functional teams through ambiguity, create clarity, and push teams to ship product and drive impact
- Strong product fundamentals with a spike in one or more of enterprise go-to-market, design, development, or marketing
- Willing to roll up your sleeves to help the team execute, whether that means creating prototypes, building dashboards, fixing issues in production, creating content, or responding to support tickets
- You play on offense, creating and running toward opportunities and injecting energy into places where there is none
- Experience as a founder, working at an early-stage startup, or launching zero-to-one vertical products is a plus
