Customer Success Engineer

Automotive retail is a trillion-dollar industry running on spreadsheets, gut calls, and inventory that sits on lots for months – and we think predictive analytics can fix it. Our AutoIntel platform connects the consumer buying journey to the manufacturer's supply chain – personalization API and co-pilot guide shoppers through product discovery, while our predictive ordering engine helps manufacturers, distributors and dealers stock the right cars in the right place at the right time. We are in production with the largest OEMs and Dealer Groups in North America, driving double-digit lifts on core sales KPIs. The AutoIntel platform includes our Recommender System, AI Co-Pilot, and Predictive Inventory engine – and we're just getting started. Who You Are: Highly ambitious, with a strong desire to help scale the company and grow alongside it. Passionate about delivering exceptional customer service and building strong relationships with dealership personnel. Strong ability to relate to dealership operators and understand the challenges of a fast-paced retail automotive environment. Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage effectively across teams and stakeholders. Fluent in key SaaS performance metrics, including acceptance rate, retention, MRR, and churn. Technically inclined and comfortable working with data, dashboards, APIs, and system integrations — not an engineer, but a credible technical partner. Comfortable leveraging LLM-powered tools to enhance analysis, dashboards, automation, and reporting workflows. Curious about the automotive industry, including dealer operations, vehicle ordering, allocation, and volume planning processes.  What You Bring to the Team: 2 – 5 years of experience in customer success, sales engineering, solutions consulting, account management, or technical SaaS support – including time owning accounts end-to-end from pre-sales through renewal. Experience acting as the technical subject-matter expert in pre-sales cycles – scoping calls, solution demos, technical discovery, and partnering with AEs to win and expand accounts. Track record of identifying customer challenges and implementing solutions, including process and automation work. Proven ability to design and implement successful customer growth strategies and initiatives. Bonus: automotive, dealer network, or franchise experience. Key Responsibilities: Establish and maintain strong, long-lasting relationships with key customer stakeholders — from first conversation through onboarding, ongoing operational health, and growth. Serve as the technical subject-matter expert in pre-sales cycles – running technical discovery, leading solution demos, scoping integrations, and partnering with sales to convert qualified opportunities. Run the technical discovery process to onboard new OEM/brand stores to our portfolio and automate processes to support scaling sales operations across your portfolio. Define and own key performance indicators (KPIs) for customer success, including retention rates, and customer satisfaction scores. Use analytics and data insights to monitor customer health and predict potential issues before they become critical. Implement systems for collecting and analyzing customer feedback to continuously refine and improve customer experience. Continuously identify and advance upsell and cross-sell opportunities within the existing customer base – carrying expansion ARR or net revenue retention as a named KPI alongside retention and CSAT. Provide feedback to the product team based on customer insights and needs, helping shape the future roadmap and feature enhancements. Act as the escalation point for at-risk or stalled accounts – taking ownership when frontline CS or support hasn't resolved the issue, driving the technical and relationship fix, and restoring trust.
