About the role
- This is one of the most strategic seats we'll fill this year.
- You'll sit at the forefront of the next generation of CS, with real room to become a thought leader in the community.
- You'll inherit a Customer Success organization that works:
Responsibilities
- Own NRR, GRR, and churn. Post-sales revenue is yours, forecast weekly and presented to the board.
- Run the commercial system: quarterly goal setting (bottoms-up and top-down), pipeline reviews, renewal and save motions, deal approvals, and comp/SPIFF design tied to the company's bets.
- Lead the Agentic Motion
- Drive Agentic Support deployment and usage across the customer base, the company's top priority, run through your team.
- Have a strong point of view on how AI changes the customer success role, and be able to implement that transformation internally as well as help carry it through to our product.
- Grow the team across three offices: hire and develop managers (two team leads are already ready for that step), own segment design across Enterprise, Mid-Market, and Scaled, book economics, and capacity planning.
- Own the Sales to CS relationship: qualification criteria, deal review, and customer expectations post sales.
- Lead the dogfooding and Championship programs, where CSM DRIs master a Pylon workflow with the PM and champion it to the team.
- Use Pylon every day for your own workflows. Your hands-on usage directly shapes what we build next.
- Lead the company's biggest bet from the seat closest to customers.

Company info
- Represent Pylon externally through speaking, writing, podcasts, and the communities where support leaders compare notes. The person who runs CS at Pylon should be a name our buyers know.
- You've owned the number, not just the relationship.
- You've led leaders. You get as much energy developing a manager as closing a deal, and you know the difference between running 50 people and running 50 people well.
- You inherit well. You get energy from scaling systems that already work, and you earn the right to change them by understanding them first.
- A 1,600+ account base energizes you. Our customers range from four figures to six figures, and we're building a CS org to support all of them.
- You want the stage. You already speak, write, or build in public about how customer success should work, or you've been waiting for the company and platform that makes it worth doing.
- You're AI native. You use agents in your own workflow, you can demo ours credibly to a skeptical CCO, and you have a real point of view on what agentic CS looks like.
- Experience leading customer success at a company with an agentic and/or usage-based billing product. You've lived through this exact shift before, helping customers understand variable consumption and tying value to real-time usage. This matters more to us than almost anything else on this list.
- 5+ years in post-sales, with 2+ years leading customer success organizations, including managing managers in an org of 15+ people across segments and geographies.
- A track record of personally owning and exceeding NRR and expansion targets in B2B SaaS.
- Own the expansion number. Cross-sell and upsell are not handed off to someone else, they're a core part of how you run the org, and you're directly accountable for hitting the quarterly expansion goal.
- Own the customer migration motion to agentic, usage-based billing: drive adoption of the usage-based product, guide customers through the transition, and land successful migrations.
