About the RoleWe are looking for a best-in-class Director of Customer Success to build and scale our customer success function at Integrate. This is a critical leadership hire. We are looking for someone operating at the top of their field who can define how customer success is executed in one of the most demanding environments in software.
This role sits at the intersection of customer success, product, and sales. You will be responsible for designing and executing the systems, processes, and training programs required to support rapid customer growth, particularly in government environments where deployments are complex and high-stakes.
You will lead a "trainer of trainers" model, ensuring customers can successfully adopt and expand Integrate within their organizations. You will work closely with sales, product, and leadership to ensure a tight feedback loop between customer needs and product evolution.
This is a high-ownership, zero-to-one leadership role. You will define what great customer success looks like at Integrate, build the playbook, and scale the function as we onboard thousands of new users across critical programs.
We are intentionally setting an extremely high bar for this role. We are looking for someone who has operated in top-tier environments and has a track record of building and scaling customer-facing functions in complex, high-stakes settings. The ideal candidate is someone other exceptional operators would recognize immediately - someone who raises the standard of execution across the entire company.

Who You Are- You'll define how Integrate delivers value to customers at scale, working across departments with particular attention to customer success, sales, and product.
- You are in the top percentile of operators in customer success. You have likely been trusted with mission-critical customers, complex deployments, or high-stakes environments where failure is not an option.
- You are highly accountable, systems-oriented, and driven by outcomes. You know how to build structure from ambiguity and create scalable processes in fast-moving environments.
- You thrive in high-stakes environments where execution matters and outcomes are visible, measurable, and consequential.
- You are equally comfortable operating strategically and rolling up your sleeves to execute.
- You are an exceptional communicator and relationship builder, able to work across technical teams, operators, and executives. You take pride in building systems that work - and teams that win.
- This is not a maintenance role. We are looking for a builder and operator who will define the standard for customer success at Integrate.
- This role is in person at our Ballard office in Seattle, where close collaboration helps us move quickly and support customers effectively. Some travel may be required to support customer deployments and training.
