• Demonstrate deep product expertise by helping customers navigate, adopt, and optimize their use of Rapid7 solutions, providing guidance and educational resources that maximize their return on investment.
• Advocate for customer needs internally, collaborating with cross-functional teams including sales, marketing, and product development to drive improvements and ensure a unified approach to customer success.
• Proactively identify and mitigate risk by monitoring customer usage patterns, health scores, and engagement signals to address potential churn before it escalates.
• Establish and track key performance indicators (KPIs) including customer satisfaction scores, product adoption and health metrics, retention rates, and upsell opportunities.
• Stay current on cybersecurity trends, emerging technologies, and the evolving threat landscape to provide informed, strategic guidance to your customers.

The skills and qualities you'll bring include:

• A customer-first mindset with a proven ability to build trust with senior stakeholders, including CISOs and C-level executives, and turn complex customer relationships into long-term partnerships.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate technical concepts into clear, compelling narratives for both technical and executive audiences.
• A Never Done approach to professional growth - staying current on cybersecurity trends, platform updates, and industry best practices to continuously elevate the value you bring to customers.
• Accountability for your book of business - owning outcomes, proactively surfacing risk, and driving resolution with a bias toward action and impact.
• 5-6+ years of Customer Success, Account Management, or Consulting experience in a high-tech or SaaS environment, ideally within cybersecurity.
• Experience developing and executing account strategies that drive platform adoption, retention, and expansion.
• Prior technology deployment and configuration experience, with the ability to advise customers on how to best leverage solutions for faster ROI.
• Strong project management and prioritization skills, with the ability to manage multiple strategic accounts and competing priorities simultaneously.
• Familiarity with security frameworks and concepts (e.g. NIST, CIS Controls, cloud security) and the ability to apply them in customer conversations.
• Industry certifications such as A+, Network+, Security+, Cloud+, or CCSP are a plus.
• Core Value Embodiment: Embody our core values to foster a culture of excellence that drives meaningful impact and collective success.
