Job description

We're Optix — helping flex and coworking space operators build smarter, more automated spaces and better-connected communities.

Our platform powers the digital backbone of coworking and flex spaces around the world, uniting automation, CRM, and community engagement tools into one seamless experience. We help our customers create beautiful, integrated, human-centered workspaces that run smoothly for managers and members alike.

We're a passionate team that supports each other to do our best work. You'll often find us sharing pour-over coffee, chocolate croissants, and big ideas about the future of work.

As a Customer Success Associate, you will become a product expert and educate clients on the benefits and functionality of the Optix platform. You will play a critical role in developing and managing client relationships, driving client adoption, retention, and expansion—while embracing AI-powered tools to maximize your efficiency and client impact. This is a great opportunity for a customer success or onboarding specialist who has experience in SaaS and is excited to harness AI as part of their toolkit. You'll have the opportunity to shape our customer success strategy, refine our engagement motion, and help build the playbook that defines how Optix delivers value and grows with our clients.

If you have 3+ years of experience in customer success or account management (ideally in B2B SaaS) and are eager to make a direct impact at a fast-growing, mission-driven company, we'd love to meet you.

Note: Flexible hours with some early morning and late afternoon availability required to accommodate clients across time zones.
