Job description

About the Role

Bolster is hiring a Customer Success Engineer (CSE) to provide hands‑on technical guidance and support to our existing,directly-sold customers — helping them onboard, implement, and get ongoing value from Bolster's platform. This roleis scoped entirely to Bolster's own direct customers, but in certain circumstances, may also engage with channelpartners.

This is an earlier-in-career, growth-oriented technical position. The product depth and customer‑facing skills you buildhere are the same foundation the TAM role is built on — this CSE role is intentionally designed as our internal feedertrack into TAM or a Solutions Engineering role.

Work Authorization: Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States. We are not able to sponsor visas or provide employment-based immigration support for this position now or in the future.

What You’ll Do

• Lead technical onboarding and implementation for new and existing direct Bolster customers.
• Configure integrations, APIs, and platform settings — across domain, social media, app store, marketplace, anddark web monitoring and takedown workflows — to match each customer's setup.
• Run technical training sessions and product demos as customers ramp up or adopt new capabilities.
• Provide hands‑on troubleshooting for product issues, partnering closely with Support, Security Operations andEngineering to resolve them.
• Work side‑by‑side with Customer Success Managers on customer calls as the technical point of contact.
• Track common technical questions and friction points and feed them back to Product and Documentation.
• Build deep product knowledge across Bolster's capabilities.

What We’re Looking For

• 3+ years of experience in a technical, customer‑facing role (technical support, implementation, IT/helpdesk, or similar) — or a strong technical foundation from education or internships and a clear interest in moving intocustomer success.
• Comfortable learning a product quickly and explaining it clearly to non‑technical customers.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Detail‑oriented and organized; comfortable managing multiple customers and open items at once.
• Genuinely growth‑minded — interested in building toward a Technical Account Manager or Solutions Engineeringrole over time, not just staying in a single‑product support seat.
• Preferred: basic familiarity with APIs, web/DNS concepts, or integrations — willingness to learn quickly mattersmore than existing depth.
• Preferred: coursework, internship experience, or personal interest in cybersecurity, brand protection, fraudprevention, or digital risk.
• Preferred: exposure to support/ticketing tools (e.g., Zendesk, Salesforce) and basic scripting.

$80,000 - $140,000 a year

Actual compensation will be determined based on factors including, but not limited to, relevant experience, skills, qualifications, education, geographic location (where applicable), and business needs.
