This is the senior seat in Audyence's implementation and support function, and you are here to modernize it. The work happens every day and it happens well. What it does not have underneath it yet is much of a system, and building that is the half of the job that makes this role a senior one.
We are growing quickly, and this function has to grow with it by getting sharper rather than simply larger. So you rebuild the processes so they scale, you hold the quality bar while they do, and you put AI and automation wherever they genuinely make the work better instead of only faster. You will not be handed a playbook. You will write the one that outlasts you.
That means two jobs at once, and both are yours. You get customers live on the platform and you keep them unblocked, hands on, in the product, every day. And you, with the VP of CX, decide how that work gets done: what onboarding looks like for a large account against a small one, what the support queue runs on and what it promises, what gets recorded once so it never has to be answered again, and which recurring problems are training gaps rather than product gaps.
You work alongside an Enterprise Customer Success Manager (CSM) who owns the relationship, the strategy and the account's commercial forecast. You own whether the platform works. The boundary between the two is written down rather than negotiated case by case, and holding it is part of the job.
You report to the VP of Customer Experience (CX). Audyence is embedding AI at the core of how we build our teams, with an agentic layer designed to maximize what every person here can do, so this role is built for someone who already works that way and wants to go further.
You would rather build the system than be the system. The function exists, the structure around it mostly does not, and you read that as the appealing part rather than the risk. You are comfortable doing the work by hand this month so you can design it properly next month, and you can tell the difference between a process that is missing and a process that is missing on purpose.
You already work with AI, and you want to work with it more. Audyence is embedding AI at the core of how every team operates. You have redesigned real work around it rather than simply tried the tools, you accept that the landscape shifts every few months, and you adapt without waiting to be told how.
You teach rather than do, on purpose, even when doing it yourself would be faster. A large part of this job is handing capability to a customer instead of exercising it for them, and those are genuinely different skills. You are doing it well when customers need you less over time, not more, and you are comfortable being measured on that.
You work from a queue and you like clearing it. Things arrive, you resolve them, they close. You answer first inside an hour even when the answer is only that you are looking into it. If you want open-ended project work with no defined finish, this is not that job.
You turn a recurring problem into a permanent answer. The third time a question shows up you stop answering it and record it instead. You build the library that a customer can help themselves from, and you treat documentation, recorded walkthroughs and help-center content as outputs of the role rather than overhead sitting on top of it.
You make the product better by the way you report on it. You file clear, specific tickets with the customer impact attached, you add to the case that already exists rather than opening a new one, and you can tell a product gap from a training gap and say which is which. When a shipped feature does not do what customers were told it would, you raise it rather than absorb it.
You are steady about where the line is. Customers will ask you to run things for them, and some of it you should say yes to and most of it you should not. You can hold that boundary without making it a confrontation, and you would rather explain why the answer is a training session than quietly do the work and let it become permanent.
If you don't meet every qualification listed, we still encourage you to apply. Research shows that candidates who don't check every box often self-select out, even though they may bring valuable skills and perspectives. We're committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace, so if you're excited about this role and think you'd be a great fit, we want to hear from you!
We truly embody our values and live it through the culture we are creating at Audyence.
