Customer Success Manager building AI-powered onboarding and retention for global SaaS teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Customer Success Manager with 5+ years of experience driving platform adoption, retention, and post-sale account growth across high-volume SaaS environments. I partner closely with product, engineering, and operations teams to resolve adoption challenges, translate customer feedback into roadmap improvements, and align service delivery with long-term client goals.
I’m known for independently building and shipping AI-powered automation tools in production—like a RAG-based knowledge base system that reduced onboarding time by 50% and a browser extension relied on daily by a globally distributed support team. I also sustain strong customer outcomes, including a 4.8/5 CSAT across multiple SaaS product lines, while proactively monitoring customer health and identifying churn risks early.
