Full Job Description
The Role

We're looking for a customer-obsessed CSM to own relationships with a portfolio of 50+ law firms and clients who are using AI to transform how they work. This is a high-impact, hands-on role where you'll be in the trenches daily: running onboarding sessions, driving adoption, managing renewals, and ensuring customers get maximum value from Parambil. You'll work closely with the CS Lead, serving as a key execution partner - helping translate strategy into action across your accounts and contributing to team-wide initiatives as we build out the CS function.

You'll also contribute to building and refining the CS operations that will scale with us - from automation tooling to playbooks to health scoring. This is a ground-floor opportunity to have real ownership, direct access to founders and product, and grow your career as the company scales.
What You'll Do

Own your book of business (85% of time)
  • Act as a trusted advisor to SMB clients on Parambil's AI-enabled solutions, guiding them through implementation, adoption, and value realization
  • Lead customer onboarding and training sessions - getting new users to their "aha moment" quickly and building the habits that drive long-term retention
  • Serve as the primary strategic contact for executive and operational stakeholders across your portfolio
  • Conduct regular check-ins and quarterly business reviews (EBRs), partnering with customers to define success metrics, milestones, and transformational goals
  • Analyze usage and engagement trends to identify adoption gaps, mitigate churn risk, and surface growth opportunities
  • Proactively communicate platform enhancements, emerging capabilities, and industry insights to align product value with evolving client needs
  • Identify and execute upsell and cross-sell opportunities; consistently achieve strong renewal rates and year-over-year portfolio growth
  • Troubleshoot customer issues and coordinate with Support, Product, and Engineering for fast resolutions
  • Adapt quickly to product changes, effectively communicating impacts, solutions, and best practices to clients

Support CS operations (15% of time)
  • Contribute to the refinement of onboarding workflows, success playbooks, and account management frameworks
  • Drive CS automation efforts - identifying repetitive processes and helping implement tooling to scale the team's impact
  • Develop and maintain training materials, help docs, and self-service resources
  • Share customer insights, patterns, and feature requests with the CS Lead and Product teams
  • Participate in building out health scoring, reporting, and lifecycle processes

Be the voice of the customer
  • Gather and synthesize feedback from your accounts for Product and Engineering
  • Serve as a key contributor to testing, validation, and customer readiness efforts as new features ship - helping shape product functionality, UX, and go-to-market adoption strategies
  • Champion your customers' needs internally
What We're Looking For

Must-haves
  • 3-5 years in customer-facing roles with B2B SaaS experience (CSM, Account Management, Implementation, Solutions Engineering, or similar)
  • Proven ability to manage 30-50 accounts while staying organized and prioritizing effectively
  • Strong track record with retention and customer satisfaction metrics
  • Excellent communication skills - you can lead executive conversations and hands-on technical trainings with equal confidence
  • Self-starter mentality: you see what needs to be done and you do it
  • Comfortable working in ambiguity and building processes as you go
  • Excited to be on a small, scrappy CS team where you'll wear multiple hats

Nice-to-haves
  • Experience at an early-stage startup (Seed to Series B)
  • Background in legal tech, healthcare, or highly regulated industries
  • Familiarity with the personal injury legal space
  • Prior experience in consulting, implementation, or technical account management
  • Experience with CS automation tools or building out CS playbooks from scratch
This Role Is (and Isn't)

This is right for you if:
  • You love talking to customers and genuinely enjoy solving their problems
  • You're hungry to grow your career and want real exposure to building CS at a startup
  • You thrive with 5+ customer calls/meetings per day
  • You want to help shape how we do customer success - not just execute a playbook someone else wrote
  • You're looking for a place where hard work gets recognized and rewarded
  • You see yourself managing accounts now and eventually leading a team

This probably isn't for you if:
  • You need highly structured processes and clear hierarchy
  • You prefer minimal customer interaction or large, established teams
  • You're not comfortable being scrappy and figuring things out as you go
  • You're looking for a purely strategic or managerial role right now
Why Join Us
  • Direct business impact - Customer retention and expansion are critical company metrics that you'll own and influence
  • Access to leadership - Work directly with founders, shape product direction, and have real input on company strategy
  • Cutting-edge technology - Help customers adopt AI that's genuinely transforming how legal work gets done
  • Strong compensation - $120-140K OTE plus meaningful equity in a well-funded, fast-growing startup
  • Exceptional team - Work with talented, mission-driven people in our NYC office near Grand Central
  • Accelerated career growth - Ground floor opportunity that will naturally grow into leadership as we scale
