    We are building on the strong relationships our Solution Architects already have with customers and combining that technical expertise with proactive Customer Success. This leader will initially lead Customer Success Executives and Solution Architects, including POC activities, while developing the organization into a scalable global capability and adding technical depth as customer and regional needs evolve.

    This is a hands-on player-coach role for a leader who can build the organization while remaining close to strategic customers and the team.

    What You'll Lead

    • Build and execute Spectralink’s global Customer Success strategy and operating model.
    • Lead and develop Customer Success Executives and the Customer Success Architect organization, including POC activities.
    • Create clear ownership and continuity across the customer lifecycle, from signing and technical discovery through adoption, optimization, renewal, and expansion.
    • Expand Customer Success globally with consistent processes, tools, metrics, engagement standards, and appropriate regional flexibility.
    • Define account segmentation, coverage models, customer health measures, Success Plans, and executive governance for strategic customers.
    • Recruit, coach, and develop high-performing customer-facing and technical talent, including clear career paths and expectations.
    • Remain directly engaged with a select group of strategic customers and serve as an executive escalation point when needed.

    Customer Success & Technical Leadership

    • Build on the trusted relationships and technical expertise already established by our Solution Architects.
    • Ensure technical expertise is integrated throughout the customer lifecycle and aligned to measurable customer outcomes.
    • Establish clear engagement models across Customer Success, Sales, Professional Services, Support, Product, and Engineering.
    • Strengthen technical discovery, solution architecture, POCs, adoption, optimization, and technical success planning for complex customers.
    • Identify recurring customer and technical challenges and translate them into scalable improvements across products, services, processes, and enablement.
    • Use customer insights and operational data to identify risk, improve retention, and uncover opportunities for greater customer value and growth.

    Global & Cross-Functional Leadership

    • Build Customer Success from its current foundation into a truly global capability across regions.
    • Partner closely with Sales, Professional Services, Support, Product, Engineering, Education, Marketing, and regional leadership.
    • Create effective handoffs and shared accountability across the customer lifecycle.
    • Represent the voice of the customer internally and bring structured customer insights to Product and Engineering.
    • Build a culture of customer advocacy, accountability, technical curiosity, collaboration, and measurable outcomes.

    What We're Looking For

    • Minimum of 8 years of leadership experience in Customer Success, Solution Architecture, technical account management, customer engineering, or related customer-facing functions.
    • Experience building, scaling, or transforming Customer Success organizations and leading geographically distributed teams.
    • Healthcare technology experience strongly preferred, including familiarity with complex healthcare IT environments, workflows, integrations, and stakeholder structures.
    • Strong understanding of enterprise technology and complex solution deployments, with the ability to lead both relationship-oriented and highly technical professionals.
    • Demonstrated success with strategic enterprise customers, executive relationships, adoption, retention, value realization, and growth.
    • Strong executive communication, cross-functional influence, and organizational leadership skills.
    • A builder and player-coach who is hands-on, technically curious, data-driven, collaborative, and comfortable operating in an evolving environment.
