As a Manager, you'll own the operational health and performance of your pod - ensuring your team delivers time-boxed, co-built technical engagements that take customers from "Rovo is turned on" to real, measurable business value in production.

You'll hire, coach, and develop Customer Success Architects (AI) who partner directly with enterprise teams to discover high-impact AI use cases, design and build custom Rovo agents, configure third-party connectors, and deploy working solutions into production workflows. You're accountable for engagement quality, team capacity planning, adoption metrics, and your direct reports' professional growth.

  • Operate. Own pod-level capacity planning, engagement assignments, and delivery quality. Monitor key operational metrics (e.g., TTFA, Cycle Times, Capacity) and broader business outcomes like product adoption and engagement completion rates, taking proactive action when engagements are at risk.
  • Enable. Ensure your team has current playbooks, enablement materials, and access to product changes. Partner with Senior Customer Success Architects on methodology iteration and onboarding of new hires.
  • Collaborate. Work with Account Teams, Customer Success Managers, and Sales leadership to prioritize customer engagements. Align pod capacity with pipeline demand and strategic account needs.
  • Bridge Product & Field. Partner with Rovo Product and Engineering to surface systemic product friction your team encounters. Synthesize field patterns into structured feedback that influences roadmap priorities.
  • Advocate. Represent TAS in cross-functional forums. Ensure your team's customer successes are visible internally and externally, contributing to case studies, events, and community engagement.
