What We’re Looking For:

• 7+ years in Customer Success, Account Management, or Post-Sales leadership, preferably with both SaaS and on-prem distributions of infrastructure software

• Proven success managing both relationship-focused CSMs and technical/implementation-focused CSEs

• Strong leadership skills with experience scaling teams through managers and leads

• Excellent collaboration skills across Sales, Product, and Engineering

• Data-driven operator who uses metrics to drive strategy and execution

What You’ll Be Obsessed With:

• Net Revenue Retention (NRR): Growth across accounts through adoption, expansion, and retention

• Gross Retention (GRR): Churn prevention

• Renewal Timeliness: Renewal execution

• Customer Health & Advocacy: High CSAT/NPS and referenceable accounts

• Operational Scale: Playbooks, processes, and tooling in place to support thousands of customers

• Team Development: Strong leadership bench with clear career paths for CSMs, CSEs and TechOps Engineers

Our culture and values:

• We own and solve problems with high attention to detail.
