Your Impact

  • Build and maintain customer lifecycle workflows across HubSpot, Salesforce, Pendo, and connected customer systems.
  • Design and operationalize AI agents for journey operations, signal detection, next-best-action recommendations, support guidance, and customer insight.
  • Translate requirements from Lifecycle Strategy, Customer Success, Support, SE, Product, Enablement, and Marketing into scalable automation and orchestration logic.
  • Technical Account Management: Automate account health preparation, technical success plan updates, recurring health checks, action tracking, and customer review preparation.
  • SE post-sales account management: Support technical account oversight, deployment and adoption reviews, product utilization analysis, technical risk identification, and follow-through on customer actions.
  • Professional Services: Streamline onboarding, deployment planning, readiness checks, project updates, and delivery documentation.
  • Technical Support: Improve case triage, troubleshooting, knowledge retrieval, and resolution workflows.
  • Digital Success: Build scalable onboarding, adoption guidance, customer health monitoring, and proactive outreach workflows.
  • Develop integrations and data flows that connect customer, product, support, engagement, and enablement signals.
  • Establish testing, QA, monitoring, exception handling, observability, and rollback procedures for automations and AI-enabled workflows.
  • Create operational reporting that surfaces journey enrollment, workflow health, drop-offs, exceptions, adoption signals, and agent performance.
  • Support the Customer Lifecycle Council with technical feasibility assessments, implementation estimates, and evidence on what is working or breaking.
  • Map customer journeys and internal processes, including handoffs between teams, and prioritize use cases based on customer impact, effort saved, feasibility, and business value.
  • Integrate knowledge platforms and internal product systems into agent workflows using APIs and orchestration tools.
  • Define clear operational ownership and human approval steps for agent actions, supported by audit trails and data protection controls.
  • Improve production workflows using feedback and usage data; document solutions and train teams to use and maintain them.

    • What You Will Bring

  • Demonstrated experience designing, building, deploying, and operating production-scale AI agents using both OpenAI GPT and Anthropic Claude models.
  • Hands-on experience selecting and orchestrating models for different tasks, including tool use, retrieval, structured outputs, workflow execution, evaluation, observability, permissions, and human escalation.
  • Proven ability to move agents beyond prototype stage into reliable, governed enterprise use cases with measurable business outcomes.
  • Experience building complex workflow automation and systems integrations in a customer-facing, revenue, marketing operations, customer operations, or product operations environment.
  • Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, with the ability to trace a customer outcome through data, systems, workflow logic, and operational ownership.
  • A disciplined approach to testing, data quality, permissions, exception handling, and change management.
  • Ability to translate ambiguous business requirements into simple, scalable technical solutions and communicate clearly across technical and non-technical teams.
  • Proficiency in Python or JavaScript/TypeScript and experience working with webhooks and structured data.
  • Hands-on experience with prompt design and retrieval-augmented generation.

    • Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience operating multi-model agent environments, including practical knowledge of GPT and Claude strengths, limitations, cost, latency, safety, and evaluation considerations.
  • Experience with customer lifecycle, digital customer success, product-led growth, or customer marketing motions.
  • Familiarity with customer health, telemetry, product usage, support, and enablement data.
  • Experience working in B2B SaaS, cybersecurity, or another complex enterprise technology environment.
  • Practical experience with Salesforce, HubSpot, Pendo, support platforms, CDPs or data warehouses, APIs, and automation tools.
  • Familiarity with Jira, MuleSoft, Forethought, or comparable platforms.
  • Understanding of technical account management, post-sales account management, implementation, and service delivery processes.

    • Success Measures

  • Reduced manual effort across targeted workflows.
  • Shorter cycle times and faster customer onboarding and time to value.
  • Increased product adoption and effective digital engagement.
  • Earlier identification and follow-through on customer risks.
  • Improved efficiency and account coverage for TAMs and post-sales SEs.
  • Reliable agent execution and measurable customer experience improvements.
