Job description
What you’ll do
Own the implementation journey for a high-volume portfolio of Scaled and Mid-Market customers, from platform configuration and setup through early value realization
Run weekly onboarding sessions covering platform setup, prompt creation, report interpretation, and Q&A
Design and continuously improve the scaled onboarding curriculum that serves as the primary implementation motion for Scaled and Mid-Market customers
Build the enablement infrastructure including session templates, help content, and follow-up sequences to make onboarding scalable without sacrificing quality
Independently handle escalations and implementation blockers, adapting established playbooks when customer circumstances require a different approach
Define and track implementation performance metrics, like time to value, configuration completion rate, and operational efficiency, recognizing patterns to continuously improve the quality and efficiency of the implementation motion
Evolve the implementation motion as our customer base grows, building a process that scales without proportional headcount
Surface product gaps, onboarding friction, and recurring issues to Customer Success and Product teams, and create or improve playbooks based on repeated experience
Serve as the internal expert on how customers actually use Profound — a dependable subject-matter resource for teammates — and translate that insight into stronger programs, content, and strategy
Who you are
4 or more years of experience in customer success, onboarding, implementation, or customer education
You understand the gap between “sold” and “successful,” and have owned the motion that closes it — consistently producing strong outcomes across demanding, high-volume engagements
You know how to tie implementation to the product value and communicate that to keep customers motivated through the process
Strong facilitator, comfortable leading group sessions, webinars, and office hours with stakeholders at varying levels of sophistication
Organized program owner who can build a repeatable system from scratch, keep it running, and demonstrate reliable performance across a broad portfolio
Skilled at handling difficult conversations, balancing short-term customer needs against longer-term program objectives, and maintaining customer trust in moments of ambiguity or change
Process-oriented and data-aware, tracking what works and improving what does not
Comfortable operating independently in ambiguity and building systems rather than inheriting them
Power user of AI tools who uses them to transform workflows, increase leverage, and drive meaningful efficiency gains
AI search experience is a plus
