At Digital Science, we put our customers at the core of everything we do. We strive to deliver an exceptional experience for our Academic customers—from their first touchpoint through implementation and throughout their long-term partnership with us.
As an Academic Customer Engagement Manager, you will play a critical role in supporting priority academic institutions across the U.S., with a particular focus on West Coast coverage. You will help these institutions adopt, expand, and maximize the value of multiple Digital Science solutions—such as Dimensions, Altmetric, Figshare, and Elements—working with research offices, libraries, and institutional leadership to align our tools with their strategic goals.
This role bridges engagement across products and market needs, enabling holistic institutional partnerships and ensuring customers achieve measurable impact from their investment with Digital Science. Please note, the preferred candidate resides in PST/West Coast USA.

  • Lead onboarding, training, and engagement programs to ensure smooth adoption, early impact, and continued value realization.
  • Partner with research offices and library teams to align solution usage with institutional priorities such as research assessment, open access compliance, and impact reporting.
  • Support institutions in capturing, curating, and showcasing research outputs, data, and impact case studies across platforms.
  • Promote awareness and adoption of new features and capabilities across solutions, helping customers maximize value.
  • Monitor customer health and engagement across products, identifying risks and opportunities for growth.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Product, Sales, and Marketing teams to ensure coordinated communication and success planning.
  • Capture and communicate customer feedback to inform product and service enhancements.
  • Contribute to knowledge-sharing resources, playbooks, and best practices for cross-solution engagement.
  • Support renewal and expansion discussions in partnership with Sales, ensuring a strong focus on retention and customer satisfaction.

What you’ll bring to the role

  • 3+ years of experience in Customer Success, Engagement, or Account Management within a B2B SaaS, academic, or research-related organization.
  • Strong understanding of the academic research ecosystem—particularly research information management, open access, and research impact assessment.
  • Demonstrated ability to manage multiple customer relationships, projects, and priorities across time zones.
  • Excellent communication, facilitation, and presentation skills, able to engage confidently with senior stakeholders.
  • Proactive, organized, and self-directed, with a collaborative mindset suited to a distributed team environment.
  • Experience supporting or teaching technical software solutions; comfortable with live troubleshooting and remote training delivery.
  • Familiarity with or experience in academic institutions, libraries, or research offices is highly desirable.
