Founding Customer Success Manager

Krea

Founding Customer Success Manager

We're looking for a Founding Customer Success Manager to help our customers get real value from Krea, from first onboarding to deep, long-term adoption. You'll work closely with creative teams, guide them through workflows, and be the connective tissue between customers, product, and sales.

What You'll Do

  • Own post-sale customer success: onboarding, adoption, renewals, and expansion

  • Help customers integrate Krea into their creative workflows and daily work

  • Drive product adoption across our core customer profiles

  • Communicate new feature and product updates (we ship weekly)

  • Track usage and customer signals to help customers get more value

  • Identify expansion opportunities and own the renewal process end-to-end, from forecasting risk to closing the deal

  • Program manage webinars and workshops in partnership with our creative leads, from planning content through execution

  • Share customer feedback with the product and marketing teams and help shape what we build

What We're Looking For

  • Experience in Customer Success or Account Management

  • Commercially minded, with a track record of renewing and growing customer accounts

  • Product-focused mindset, with experience in onboarding and implementation

  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills - you're great at building and maintaining relationships

  • Proactive, ownership-driven attitude and comfort working in an early-stage environment

Nice To Have

  • A creative background (e.g.: account manager at a creative agency, or a startup working with designers, artists, or studios)

  • Strong understanding of creative workflows

What We Offer

  • Team: Work alongside a world-class team building the future of AI creative tooling

  • Impact: Significant scope and company-wide impact

  • Competitive compensation: Generous salary & equity packages

  • Health & wellness: 100% health & 99% dental/vision insurance premiums covered for employees, health FSA accounts, & long-term disability coverage

  • Time off: Flexible PTO policy

  • Financial planning: 401k with a 4% company-sponsored match

  • Meals in the office: Breakfast, lunch, dinner - you name it, we'll cover it

  • Transit: Ubers covered to & from the office

  • Sponsorship: We're open to sponsoring international visas where we can (e.g., STEM OPT, OPT, H-1B, O-1, E-3).

  • And more!

Please note the above benefits & perks are for full-time employees
