Customer Success Manager

🚂 About Pulley

Pulley’s mission is to make it easier for anyone to start a company. We believe more founders should exist — and they should spend their time building, not managing the complexity of equity. Pulley helps founders understand, operate, and optimize their ownership from day one.

We’re a high-performing, product-driven team building the next generation of equity and business management tools in an AI-native world. Over 4,000 companies rely on us today, including Linear, Runway, Fathom, and Roam. Our growth has been entirely organic, and we’re scaling the team to meet accelerating demand.

🌟 About the Role

We’re hiring a Senior IC to help design and run Pulley’s scaled customer success programs for early-stage and SMB companies. As the first IC dedicated to this area, you’ll work closely with the team lead to create the foundational playbooks, lifecycle flows, and one-to-many experiences that guide customers to value.

You have experience taking a customer success motion from initial concept to a repeatable system, and you’re comfortable blending strategy with hands-on execution. Your work will expand Pulley’s reach and enable founders to onboard, adopt, and grow with confidence.

Improve Efficiency Through Systems

• Contribute to segmentation, health scoring, and tooling decisions that make the motion more efficient

Lead Initiatives as a Senior IC

✨ Why work at Pulley?

Shape the next chapter. Our product has real traction and a strong foundation, but we’re early enough that your leadership will meaningfully influence our product, customer experience, and go-to-market strategy.

Empower founders. Managing equity shouldn’t get in the way of building a company. You’ll help founders focus on what matters most — turning ideas into reality.

Work with a high-performing and passionate team - We’re thoughtful about creating a team that is excited about building a great company together. Here are our operating principles:

• Principles over playbooks - Understand the why.
• Momentum over speed - Find the best path to deliver value.
• Good taste over data - Take bold bets and trust your instincts to find the unlikely bet.
• Ideas over egos - Let the best idea win, no matter where it comes from. 
• Gladiator over spectator - Execute; don’t just critique or ideate. You’re the one putting in the work, sweating the details, and driving for results.
• Conviction over consensus - Have the courage to back your ideas strongly, even when they defy the status quo. Disagree and commit.
• Proactive over passive - Drive your own clarity and pull for context. 

💚 Benefits 

• Competitive salary and equity
• Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance
• Unlimited PTO + Winter holiday break
