THE QUESTION
If Customer Success were yours to lead, what would you build?
THE ROLE
We win by design.
We win by design. We consistently land and expand accounts, building playbooks, learning fast, and improving week over week. Our structure isn't fixed — we're looking for someone who can help us unlock the next stage of scale.
This is a hybrid role based in the Bay Area, CA, with two days per week in our Walnut Creek headquarters.
Here is what you are walking into:
The business is growing incredibly fast, and we're doing it efficiently with top-quartile metrics. In 2025 we achieved 96% gross retention, 160% net retention, and 100% YoY growth.
In 2026 we are working toward doubling revenue & logos. We want 75% of accounts using two or more products.
By 2029, we'll surpass $100M in ARR and 1,000+ accounts.
These are not stretch goals. They are the plan.
You will lead a dynamic team across Account Management, Customer Enablement, and Technical Support. The talent is strong. The playbooks, operating cadence, segmentation model, and expansion framework are yours to build, shape, and scale.
Professional Services sits within Engineering and plays an essential role in the customer journey. Success in this role will require strong cross-functional partnership and the ability to build alignment through influence, trust, and shared accountability.
Our customers are utility directors, business owners, inspection operators, and civil engineers. They measure value in operational terms: footage coded, time saved, compliance achieved, cash flow improved, revenue growth, and pipes repaired or replaced before failure.
THE OPPORTUNITY
This is a builder role, not a maintenance role.
The team is already winning. In Q1, customer onboarding time was cut from 40 days to 25 in a single quarter. Churn was reduced to zero. A significant expansion pipeline was built relationship by relationship, largely sourced by the AM team itself. A couple Customers are self-serving their own onboarding for the first time in company history.
We are looking for someone who knows how to take what is working and turn it into a repeatable, scalable system. Someone who can build the structure, operating rhythm, and leadership layer to match the talent already in the room.
WHO YOU ARE
We are not looking for the most obvious candidate on paper. We are looking for the right leader for this role, this stage, and this team.
You have been in the room at a company that scaled. You know what a great Customer Success organization looks like at $50M, $100M, and $200M ARR because you helped build it. Maybe you were the Director behind a great VP. Maybe you were the VP at an earlier-stage company who built something real before it matured, scaled, or was acquired.
You have built or significantly scaled a post-sales organization through a meaningful growth phase. You have owned retention and expansion. You have built systems that moved the numbers, not just dashboards that tracked them. You have led managers, operated cross-functionally under pressure, and know how to get results even when you do not control every variable.
You earn respect through what you do, not what you have done. You lead by example, not by title. You are not above the details. You know the fastest way to lose a high-performing team is to arrive with all the answers. The fastest way to earn trust is to arrive curious.
You know adoption is not the goal; operational value is. You know scale is a design problem. You know people are the sy
