Customer Success Manager

Platform9 is the leader in simplifying enterprise Private Clouds. Founded by a team of VMware cloud pioneers, we are dedicated to transforming IT operations. Our flagship product, Private Cloud Director, turns your existing hardware into a full-featured, future-ready private cloud. We innovate across what we build and how we deliver it, staying focused on a next-generation, open private cloud while holding ourselves to one standard: exceptional customer outcomes.

As the Senior CSM Lead at Platform9, you own customer success outcomes for our customers and help build the Customer Success function from the ground up. You combine hands-on customer success management (driving adoption, health, retention, and renewal-readiness) with the operational discipline to design the systems and scaled motions that let Customer Success deliver consistently as we grow.

As a founding member of the Customer Success function, you will partner closely with Customer Success leadership to stand up the health and operating model, build the digital-led scaled motion that gives every customer a designed experience, and establish the playbooks and patterns a growing team will run. This is a senior individual-contributor role with a build mandate and a clear path to grow with the function and team you help create.
