Run the platform behind scaled Customer Success.
Every customer journey eventually becomes an operational reality.

You'll own the engagement platform behind ECI's scaled Customer Success model, ensuring every audience is correctly targeted, every program launches as intended, every AI interaction performs reliably, and every customer receives the right experience at the right time.
Execution at this scale is a competitive advantage. Your work will help ensure every lifecycle program performs consistently while continuously improving through measurement, experimentation, and operational refinement.
What you'll do
- Operate the engagement platform. Own the day-to-day operation of the systems powering digital Customer Success, including automation, AI engagement, orchestration, monitoring, quality assurance, deliverability, and platform reliability.
- Execute lifecycle programs. Launch and manage customer engagement programs spanning onboarding, adoption, education, health recovery, renewal readiness, expansion, and win-back.
- Manage customer orchestration. Own audience segmentation, personalization, suppression logic, channel strategy, sequencing, and scheduling to ensure customers receive relevant, coordinated experiences.
- Improve operational performance. Monitor program execution, identify bottlenecks, troubleshoot issues, and continuously improve reliability, efficiency, and customer experience.
- Measure and optimize. Track engagement, completion, conversion, operational health, and renewal influence, partnering with Customer Journey Programs to continuously improve lifecycle performance.
- Collaborate across GTM. Work closely with Marketing Operations, Product Marketing, Customer Success, and the Post-Sale GTM Engineer to deliver one coordinated customer experience.
Who you are
- Typically 4–7+ years in Customer Success Operations, Marketing Operations, Digital Customer Success, Lifecycle Operations, Campaign Operations, or similar B2B SaaS environments.
- You've operated complex engagement platforms supporting thousands of customers and understand the importance of operational precision.
- You understand that great customer experiences depend as much on operational excellence as creative program design.
- You're comfortable working across CRM platforms, customer engagement technologies, AI tools, APIs, and operational workflows, and you enjoy understanding how systems fit together.
- You think in processes, quality, experimentation, and continuous improvement.
- Comfortable adopting emerging AI capabilities as they become part of everyday customer engagement.
Why this role matters

You'll help build the operational foundation behind ECI's scaled Customer Success model, ensuring customers experience consistent, timely, and coordinated engagement as the business continues to grow.
