Join to apply for the Strategic Customer Success Manager role at MongoDB

MongoDB’s mission is to empower innovators to create, transform, and disrupt industries by unleashing the power of software and data. We enable organizations of all sizes to easily build, scale, and run modern applications by helping them modernize legacy workloads, embrace innovation, and unleash AI. Our industry-leading developer data platform, MongoDB Atlas, is the only globally distributed, multi-cloud database and is available in more than 115 regions across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Atlas allows customers to build and run applications anywhere—on premises, or across cloud providers. With offices worldwide and over 175,000 new developers signing up to use MongoDB every month, it’s no wonder that leading organizations, like Samsung and Toyota, trust MongoDB to build next-generation, AI-powered applications.

Individuals in the Customer Success Manager role have a passion for technology and the ambition to dive head-first into new challenges. This is a relatively new role at MongoDB, so we are looking for someone who can thrive with a high level of ambiguity and operate autonomously while maintaining a customer centric approach and helping to build the program.

  • A background and passion for advocating on behalf of your customers - this role should act as an extension of our customers team within MongoDB
  • A mind for technology - we’ll teach you about MongoDB and databases, but our customers and product are inherently technical and you should have an aptitude and curiosity to learn about those concepts
  • The ability to act with a high level of autonomy, you will be expected to take full ownership of your customer portfolio and make key decisions to drive effective customer outcomes; including deciding when to include our executive team or c-suite in customer escalations, how to de-risk or de-escalate customer issues and conflict and advocating to internal teams including sales, professional services
  • Demonstrated experience building relationships and delivering value to technical decision makers, economic buyers, and executives (CTO, CIO)
  • An entrepreneurial mindset - you will be required to both deviate from established procedure and often build entirely new process or practices to ensure we best serve this customer segment

  • Technical product experience or education, software development experience preferred, certifications preferred
  • Proven experience contributing to global CS programs
  • Bachelor's degree, technical degree preferred, MS preferred

  • Collect feedback and identify roadblocks from customers to inform internal teams including Product, Professional Services, and Leadership on how MongoDB can build a stronger product and go to market organization
  • Act as the link between our customers and product engineering to develop new innovative solutions. You will be key in building the future roadmap of our product by acting as the Product team’s eyes and ears in this field
  • De-escalate and resolve critical customer issues and complaints by finding the best possible solution for both the customer and MongoDB; this could include anything from navigating a customer outage that has a financial impact on their business, to helping an application team devise a custom MongoDB solution or implementation for their critical application, no day is the same

  • Lead in-person executive business reviews for strategic customers in your portfolio, including interfacing with C-suite executives and other technical leaders to align to business objectives and agree to a mutual success plan
  • Work on strategic internal projects to help build the Customer Success program; our expectation is that anyone in this role has strong business acumen and the ability to create and teach best practices, new process, and enablement to the broader organization
  • Document all customer interactions in internal systems, including Gainsight and Salesforce.com
  • Provide feedback and guidance to leadership on key signals within MongoDB Atlas that indicate healthy or unhealthy customer accounts; as our product evolves, we’ll need to be constantly adjusting our engagement strategies based on these signals, which you’ll be in the best position to identify and share back with internal teams
  • Manage the relationship with Sales Leadership and Account Executives in your territory, including reporting on business performance, training on best practices, and rolling out program updates to ensure sales people and leaders are abreast of best practices for interacting with Customer Success
  • Forecast expected churn and growth to your senior leadership team
