Customer Success Manager - Growth

About The Company At Panoptyc, we’re on a mission to revolutionize loss prevention. Using visual AI and human-in-the-loop reviewers, we help retailers detect theft across more than 25,000 stores in the United States—saving customers millions of dollars annually.

As a fully remote, globally distributed team, we are building systems that operate reliably across thousands of locations. About the Role We are seeking a senior, highly proactive Customer Success Manager (Growth) who does far more than just "check the box" on customer calls.

In this role, you will own the end-to-end post-sale lifecycle—from executing prompt kickoff calls to unearthing hidden customer friction, resolving operational issues, and driving upsell/expansion opportunities. Because we do not have a large, layered CS department to guide you, you must be a self-directed operator who figure things out independently, holds customers accountable, and aggressively protects ARR.

Capture precise meeting notes and action items, ensuring customer complaints are documented, escalated, and resolved immediately. Display extreme urgency in solving operational issues before they turn into churn risks. Internal Communication & Feedback Loop Act as the internal source of truth for account reality, bridging customer needs with Product, Sales, IT, and HITL operations teams. Translate raw customer issues into structured, actionable internal tickets and feature updates. Account Health, Upsell & Retention Growth Drive account adoption and ensure customers operationalize insights to achieve measurable shrink reduction. Proactively uncover expansion, feature adoption, and upsell opportunities during routine check-ins. Own renewal execution, churn risk mitigation, and account health tracking with zero tolerance for administrative blind spots. Process Rigor & Documentation Maintain precise, up-to-date account records, health scores, and interaction logs in company tools. Standardize playbook SOPs for onboarding, issue escalation, and retention strategy. Candidate Requirements Experience: At least 5+ years of B2B SaaS Customer Success, Account Management, or Operational Onboarding experience. High Autonomy & Problem-Solving: Ability to operate independently without pre-existing corporate safety nets or step-by-step handholding.
