You will:

  • Lead, grow, and mentor a team of AI Success Managers; own team performance, operating rhythms, and career development.

  • Own end-to-end delivery governance across your team's accounts: kickoff, plan, deploy, go-live, handoff, and renewal-readiness, including proactive risk management and escalation handling.
  • Set and report on portfolio-level KPIs (deployment velocity, time-to-value, adoption, satisfaction, ROI proxies), and drive continuous improvement against these metrics.
  • Partner with Sales, Solution Architects, AI Outcomes Managers, Support, and R&D to ensure a seamless customer journey and accelerate value realization post-launch.
  • Engage with executive sponsors and customer program leads to align on goals, joint success plans, and measurable outcomes; serve as a strategic advisor when tradeoffs arise.
  • Systematize feedback loops from field to product; influence roadmap and readiness (connectors, deployment tooling, admin UX, observability) with clear business impact cases.
  • Raise the delivery bar: improve onboarding processes, documentation, playbooks, and tooling; champion operational excellence across planning, execution, and closeout.


About you:

  • 6+ years in customer-facing delivery, implementation, technical account management, or consulting for enterprise SaaS; 2+ years leading/managing delivery or customer success/PS teams.
  • Strong understanding of SDLC and modern delivery practices (Agile/DevOps), with the ability to guide hands-on work in SSO setup, people data, and enterprise connector configuration.
  • Proven record of building playbooks, standardizing processes, and running delivery at scale with clear KPIs and continuous improvement cycles.
  • Executive presence and clear communication; comfortable leading escalations, aligning cross-functional stakeholders, and making outcome-oriented decisions.
  • Analytical, systems-thinking mindset; adept at diagnosing deployment blockers and translating field insights into product/process enhancements.
  • Cloud fluency (AWS, Azure, or GCP). One of the following-or willingness to obtain within 90 days-is a plus: AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, Microsoft Certified Azure Fundamentals, or Google Cloud Digital Leader.
