The Digital Customer Success Program point person is responsible for designing and operating a scaled, digital-first customer engagement program within CS Operations that drives product adoption, customer health, and Gross Revenue Retention (GRR) for the Mid-Market segment.  

This role owns the digital customer journey motions from onboarding through renewal—creating scalable plays and campaigns that deliver value at scale while intelligently routing accounts to human touch (CSM engagement) when signals indicate risk or expansion opportunity. You will partner closely with Mid-Market CSM Principals to shape program strategy, define segmentation and engagement rules, and ensure the digital program amplifies (not replaces) human-led relationships. 

You are both strategist and operator: defining the program architecture, building the plays, running the daily operations, and translating customer signals into action.

To be successful in this role you have:

• Demonstrated success improving adoption and retention in a SaaS environment. 
• Previous experience building and launching a digital CS program  
• Strong reasoning skills with experience building health scores, segmentation, and customer journey programs.
