Contract Customer Success Manager

Americas Remote

General Overview

đź‘‹ Hello from the Recruiting Team at Customer.io! We’re looking for a full-time Contract Customer Success Manager to join our team at Customer.io. This role will be a “full stack” CSM: you’ll own a dedicated book of business, manage onboarding and ongoing support, and help ensure customers achieve success with Customer.io.

Customer.io has experienced consistent year-over-year growth, and as our customer base expands, we’re scaling our team to meet demand. This contract role is an exciting opportunity to make a direct impact supporting customers during a time of rapid growth, while gaining exposure to a dynamic, customer-focused SaaS environment.

Some of the things you’ll do

  • Manage onboarding and implementation for a portfolio of customers, acting as the project manager from kickoff to go-live
  • Host transition and planning calls with stakeholders to understand business goals and map data + messaging strategies in Customer.io
  • Partner with customers to create and execute effective campaigns, newsletters, and data workflows that align with their objectives
  • Serve as your customer’s first point of contact for dedicated support and troubleshooting; collaborate with Technical Support, Product, and Engineering to get questions answered
  • Proactively follow up with customers after onboarding, checking in ~1x/month to keep them on track toward renewal
  • Advise on best practices for campaign design, segmentation, integrations, and lifecycle messaging
  • Support our contracts team by setting up renewals for success with healthy, engaged customers

About You

  • You’re curious and enjoy learning about different businesses and industries
  • You like digging into technical concepts (APIs, integrations, workflows, templating languages) and can translate them into customer-friendly guidance
  • You’re a creative problem solver, able to uncover root causes and recommend solutions that may go beyond the customer’s initial ask
  • You stay calm under stress and manage multiple priorities with a clear head
  • You enjoy working independently, but aren’t afraid to ask for help or collaborate when needed
  • You’re energized by joining a growing, evolving team and shaping how we do Customer Success

What We’re Looking For

  • 3+ years of experience as a Customer Success Manager (or similar customer-facing role) with a technical SaaS product
  • Strong comfort communicating with technical and non-technical stakeholders — especially developers and marketers
  • Background in SaaS, ideally with marketing automation or related platforms (Customer.io, Marketo, Braze, Iterable, ActiveCampaign, Klaviyo, etc.)
  • Familiarity with APIs, data integrations, logic flows, and templating languages (e.g., Liquid) — not coding daily, but comfortable asking the right questions and troubleshooting root causes
  • Bonus: Fluency in French, Russian, or Spanish

Logistics

  • Hours: 40 hours/week, Monday–Friday, overlapping Americas business hours
  • Contract: Through December 31, 2025, with potential extension or conversion depending on business needs
  • Location: Remote, Americas (ET/CT preferred)
  • Rate: $60/hour

All final candidates will be asked to complete a background check and employment verifications as part of our pre-employment process.

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
