Customer Success Manager
Skills
About the role
The Creator Economy has a payment problem. We're solving it.
Over 1.5 million Creators across 50+ countries get paid through ChannelMeter. We've processed $2B+ in payments for Creator Networks, agencies, IP distributors, and global brands - making sure the people building the internet actually get paid accurately, on time, and without the chaos that usually comes with cross-border financial operations at this scale.
The market is heading toward $500B by 2027. The infrastructure to support that growth doesn't exist yet. We're building it.
Why this role, why now
We're at an inflection point. Our customer base is growing, the companies we serve are becoming more sophisticated, and the bar for customer success is rising - fast. We need someone who can rise with it.
This isn't a "check in quarterly and renew the contract" CS role. You'll be embedded in your customers' operations, helping them navigate complex financial workflows, unlock new capabilities on our platform, and grow alongside us.
You'll also be expected to use AI - Claude, Codex, Claude Cowork - as real tools in your daily work, not as a side experiment. This is a requirement, not a preference. If AI fluency is a box you're still trying to check, this isn't the right fit.
What you'll own
The full customer lifecycle: onboarding, training, adoption, health monitoring, renewals, and expansion
Hands-on implementations - you'll get to know our platform deeply and tailor it to each customer's financial workflows
Account health across your book - you'll spot risk early and know how to turn it around before it becomes churn
The relationships that matter: economic buyers, day-to-day operators, and everyone in between
Your AI toolkit - Claude, Codex, and Claude Cowork to prep for every customer interaction, draft QBRs, summarize account history, and flag risk patterns before they surface in a call
A structured pipeline in your task management system - every commitment, action item, and renewal date tracked and owned, nothing left to memory or inbox
A real voice in how we build CS at ChannelMeter - playbooks, tooling, and processes that scale
You'll thrive here if you
Use AI tools - Claude, Codex, Cowork, or similar - every day, as core to how you work, not an experiment. This is the single biggest predictor of success in this role.
Have 3–5 years in Customer Success, Account Management, or a customer-facing SaaS/B2B role
Write clearly and concisely - you make complex things simple, not simple things complicated
Run a tight operation inside a task management system (Asana, Linear, Notion, or equivalent) - you close loops and nothing falls through the cracks
Are obsessively organized and detail-oriented (the kind of person who catches the error everyone else missed)
Stay calm when plates are spinning and know how to prioritize without being told
Are genuinely curious - about the Creator Economy, your customers' businesses, and what's working and what isn't
Have experience working in or with YouTube, the Creator Economy, or other Creator-focused platforms
A few requirements
You're based in the SF Bay Area and available to come into the office regularly
You're authorized to work in the US - we can't support visa sponsorship or relocation for this role
You use AI tools daily as part of your workflow - we'll ask you to demonstrate this in the process
Bonus if you have
Experience in payments, fintech, or financial operations
Hands-on time in the Creator Economy - whether on the platform, agency, brand, or enterprise side
Startup experience where you had to figure things out without a playbook
Compensation
Base: $55,000–$85,000 USD
Commission on top of base - $85K–$105K OTE
Health benefits, unlimited PTO, team offsites, and flexible work arrangements
