Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There are multiple ways, either you can go for the native user profile (author archive):
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/creating-custom-user-profiles/

Or

As you shared the idea, you should create a custom post type "Member Profiles" that will allow you more flexibility like if you want to create post relationship, you can create using post type "Member Profiles" but you cant create post relationship using users (authors).

Here is the related ticket link that may help you to understand how you can create post type for member profile:
