You will be responsible for building the intelligent early warning and action systems that power our entire post-sales organization. Your mission is to move beyond reactive, lagging indicators and create a system that uses leading indicators and pattern recognition to diagnose issues before they impact the customer. Reporting to the VP, Customer Success Operations, you will be our expert in translating data into proactive intervention. You will identify where and why a customer journey is stalling or at risk, and then build the automated, intelligent workflows that help our teams get them back on track. Your Impact Build the Proactive Diagnostic Engine: Architect automated systems and reporting that diagnose why a customer's health is changing. You will leverage a blend of external and proprietary data sources to identify issues before they hit the field and will be responsible for isolating leading indicators of risk and opportunity across the entire post-sale customer journey. Translate Diagnosis into Automated Action: Partner with program leaders to design and deploy intelligent workflows based on your diagnoses. Your systems will be the engine that helps move customers from "red to green" by triggering the right automated or human action at the right time. Deliver Actionable, Proactive Insights: Go beyond dashboards. You will build systems that deliver clear, contextual, and diagnostic insights directly into the daily workflows of our Account Executives, Customer Success Business Partners, and Renewal Managers, telling them not just what is happening, but why it's happening and what programs should be activated to address it. Serve as the Intelligence & Automation Thought Leader: Champion and inform the Customer Success organization on how to build and scale a proactive, data-driven, and intelligent operational model. Your Qualifications 8+ years of progressive experience in a hands-on analytical or systems role such as Data Science, Revenue/Business Operations, Automation Engineering, or Business Systems. Experience in a fast-paced B2B SaaS company is strongly preferred. A Systems Thinker & Diagnostician: You have proven experience designing and building scalable, automated systems. Critically, you are an expert at using data and AI solutions to diagnose the root cause of business problems, not just report on them. Automation & Integration Expertise: You have deep, hands-on experience with enterprise automation platforms (e.g., Workato, Zapier) and integrating various systems with a central CRM or Customer Success Platform (e.g., Salesforce, Gainsight). Experience with the Full AI Toolkit: A core requirement is experience applying various forms of AI to drive automation. This includes hands-on experience with predictive modeling (e.g., for churn/health scoring) and a strong familiarity with modern generative AI (LLMs, RAG) and agentic/conversational AI concepts. Hands-On Technical Skills: You are highly proficient in SQL, have practical experience using Python for data manipulation and scripting, and are experienced in deploying Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to automate UI-based human tasks. Business-Impact Driven: You have a strong understanding of SaaS metrics and Customer Success principles, with a track record of successfully managing technical projects that deliver measurable value and improve leading business indicators. Base Salary Range: $154,000—$209,000 USD Our Commitment to Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging (DEIB) We believe attracting and retaining the best talent and fostering an inclusive culture strengthens our business. DEIB improves our workforce, enhances trust with our partners and customers, and drives business success. Build your career in a place where diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging aren’t just words on paper – this is what drives our innovation, it’s how we connect, and it contributes to what makes us a market leader.
