Enterprise Customer Success Manager (AI SaaS)

Why This Opportunity Stands Out
  • Join a rapidly growing AI software company that has already achieved multi-million-dollar recurring revenue shortly after launch.
  • Work alongside a high-performing team with backgrounds from some of the world’s top technology and consulting firms.
  • Be part of a well-funded organization backed by respected venture capital investors, while still joining early enough to make a meaningful impact.
  • Competitive compensation package including strong base salary, equity participation, and comprehensive medical benefits.
  • Help modernize a massive industry that still relies heavily on manual processes, with technology already delivering measurable operational savings to customers.

Compensation & Benefits
  • Base salary: $150,000–$190,000
  • Competitive early-stage equity package
  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • Visa transfer support available in select cases

Location
  • San Francisco, CA
  • Full-time onsite position (5 days/week in office)

About the Role

A fast-growing AI startup is seeking an Enterprise Customer Success Manager to manage and expand relationships with large enterprise customers. This person will serve as a trusted advisor post-implementation, helping customers maximize adoption, drive measurable business outcomes, and strengthen long-term partnerships.

This is an ideal opportunity for someone who thrives in early-stage environments, enjoys building processes from the ground up, and wants to play a key role in shaping a scaling Customer Success organization.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Manage strategic enterprise customer relationships after deployment and act as the primary point of contact for executive stakeholders, operational leaders, and end users.
  • Drive customer adoption across complex organizations with multiple business units and stakeholder groups.
  • Partner cross-functionally with implementation and deployment teams to ensure customer success and long-term retention.
  • Monitor customer health metrics, identify risks proactively, and lead business reviews focused on measurable ROI.
  • Use data and analytics to prioritize accounts, improve engagement strategies, and support renewal opportunities.
  • Contribute to the development of Customer Success processes, playbooks, and scalable operational frameworks.

What We’re Looking For
  • 3–5 years of experience in Customer Success, Account Management, or another client-facing role within B2B SaaS.
  • Prior experience working within startup or high-growth environments preferred.
  • Strong analytical mindset with comfort interpreting data and prioritizing customer portfolios.
  • High emotional intelligence, strong communication skills, and a thoughtful, solutions-oriented approach.
  • Someone who enjoys building and improving systems rather than simply following existing processes.
  • Must currently reside in the San Francisco area or be willing to relocate immediately.
  • Experience working in highly collaborative, in-office environments preferred.

Ideal Backgrounds

Candidates may come from:
  • Enterprise SaaS startups
  • Workflow automation platforms
  • AI or data-driven software companies
  • Customer Success teams supporting complex multi-stakeholder enterprise accounts

Interview Topics

Candidates should be prepared to discuss:
  • Experience managing customer churn or escalations
  • Reasons for pursuing an early-stage startup environment
  • Ability to work onsite in San Francisco
  • Compensation expectations and job search timeline
