Marketing Agent Engineer
$140k - $200k USD
Profound is on a mission to help companies understand and control their AI presence. As a Marketing Agent Engineer, you will work directly with customers who have already purchased Profound’s Agents product and need help deploying it effectively to drive real business outcomes.
This is a high-impact, customer-embedded role at the intersection of customer success, strategy, and technical implementation. You will partner closely with customers to identify the highest-value use cases for agents, design solutions, and build working implementations inside the Profound platform. When work becomes deeply technical, you will collaborate with engineering, but you will retain ownership of outcomes and ensure deployments are fast, tailored, and clearly tied to customer value. Early customer use cases will directly inform how the Agents product evolves over time.
What you’ll do
Work closely with customers to understand their goals, workflows, and AI visibility challenges
Translate ambiguous customer needs into concrete, agent-based use cases that deliver measurable business impact
Identify what should be built and why before focusing on how it should be implemented
Design agents such as AI visibility and competitor-ranking alerts, content gap identification workflows, content drafting workflows informed by AI visibility data, and agents that crawl and analyze existing content for optimization opportunities
Configure and build agents using Profound’s workflow platform by connecting nodes, APIs, data sources, and outputs
Rapidly prototype and deploy solutions directly with customers in a forward-deployed model
Own deployments end to end where possible, and clearly scope and hand off work to engineering when requirements exceed your technical depth
Serve as the primary post-sale partner for Agents customers during deployment
Turn successful customer deployments into repeatable patterns and internal best practices
Provide feedback to Product and Engineering on gaps, friction points, and roadmap priorities surfaced through customer work
Who you are
Experience in client-facing roles such as consulting, solutions, strategy, implementation, or customer success
Comfortable working with ambiguity and early-stage products
Strong problem-framing skills, with the ability to turn vague goals into concrete plans
Technical fluency without being a full-time engineer, including experience building with low-code or no-code tools, workflows, scripts, or APIs
Hands-on experimentation with AI tools, agents, or automation systems
Clear communicator who can translate effectively between customers and engineers
Enjoy being embedded with customers and owning outcomes end to end
Backgrounds such as strategy consultants with technical projects, solutions architects, forward-deployed engineers, or operators who have built scrappy internal tools are a strong fit
Experience with tools like Cursor or Claude Code is helpful but not required
