Technical Customer Success Manager (m/f/x)

Your mission with us

As  Technical Customer Success Manager at Sidekick Health, you will serve as the technical backbone of our US payer and employer customer relationships, owning the service desk, leading customer-facing technical conversations, and building trust in our platform, programs, and roadmap. You will also drive automation and AI-enabled capabilities to scale operations.

This is not a traditional Customer Success role and not a purely internal engineering role.  We are looking for someone who can combine strong technical judgment with customer-facing communication, operational ownership, and a builder mindset.

You will work closely with Customer Success, Product, and Technology Delivery to resolve issues efficiently, answer technical questions with authority, and ensure delivery commitments are met while continuously improving how we operate at scale.

This role sits within the Customer Success organization and works alongside our commercial teams to support and grow our customer relationships. It starts with ownership of the service desk supporting US payers and strategic partners and will expand as we grow. You are expected not only to solve critical issues, but also to anticipate needs, question assumptions, shape direction, and drive smarter, more scalable ways of working.

Candidates must be based in the United States and able to work across U.S. time zones, from Eastern to Pacific. Preference will be given to candidates based in Minneapolis, MN, or remote candidates located in the Eastern Time Zone.

Your responsibilities

Service Desk Ownership

• Own and operate Sidekick’s service desk for customers and strategic partners, managing all inbound requests via Zendesk from line-of-business leaders, Care Managers, Care Navigators, members and others.
• Triage, prioritize, and resolve issues directly where possible; route to the appropriate internal teams with clear context when escalation is required.
• Own all follow-up and follow-through, ensuring timely resolution independently or in close collaboration with Customer Success.
• Identify patterns in incoming requests and proactively suggest improvements to reduce repeat issues, improve customer experience, and make operations more scalable.

Technical Platform Leadership

• Act as the customer-facing subject matter expert on Sidekick’s platform, programs, integrations, and technical capabilities, leading technical conversations without requiring CTO involvement.
• Quickly build trust and confidence with customers by demonstrating strong command of our platform, capabilities, and product roadmap.
• Represent Sidekick in customer calls, confidently handling product questions, integration requirements, security inquiries, and root-cause analysis.
• Collaborate with Product, Technology, and Delivery teams to translate customer feedback and issues into clearly scoped internal tasks.
• Use sound judgment and critical thinking to challenge unclear requirements, identify risks early, and push for practical, scalable solutions.

AI Automation & Innovation

• Design and deploy automation systems and AI-enabled workflows to reduce manual effort, improve response speed, and enable scalable operations.
• Build and iterate on agents and automation tools to handle high-volume, repeatable service desk tasks and reduce reliance on manual processes.
• Lead the next phase of transformation by automating and digitizing customer-facing capabilities to improve experience, efficiency, and scalability.
• Proactively identify where automation, AI, or process redesign can improve the way we work, rather than waiting for solutions to be handed over.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Serve as the link between Customer Success, Product, and Technology Delivery for all customer-related delivery matters and priorities.
• Ensure clarity of ownership, priorities, and timelines across internal workstreams to support efficient execution.
• Maintain accurate documentation, decision logs, and process records to ensure continuity and support organizational learning.
• Operate with a high degree of independence, while knowing when to escalate, align, or bring the right stakeholders into the conversation.

Your profile

Qualifications

• 4–7 years of experience in a technical, customer-facing role in health tech or a similarly complex environment.

• Demonstrated hands-on experience with AI tools, automation platforms, or agent-based workflows, not familiarity in concept, but practical application.

• Ability to understand and communicate complex technical information including integration requirements, information security constraints, and product limitations to both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Proficiency with service desk and project management platforms (e.g., Zendesk, Jira, Asana, Monday.com).

• Excellent collaboration and stakeholder communication skills.

• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage multiple open workstreams simultaneously.

• Bachelor's degree required; PMP, Scrum Master, or Agile certification a plus.

• Genuine respect for the healthcare regulatory environment and an understanding of why compliance and data security are non-negotiable.

• You bring energy and personality to the work, high-performing and fun are not mutually exclusive to you, and the teams and customers around you feel that.

• Located and authorized to work in the United. Preference for candidates in Minneapolis, MN.

Bonus Qualifications

• Familiarity with payer operations, care management workflows, or value-based care models.

• Experience working with or supporting B2B Customer Success or Account Management teams.

• Knowledge of compliance and SLA frameworks in regulated partner environments.

• Familiarity with prescription digital therapeutics (DTx) or regulated digital health solutions.
