Customer AI Strategy & Success Lead - SMB

At Arya Health, we’re building a digital workforce for healthcare—intelligent agents that automate the busywork of scheduling, compliance, onboarding, staffing coordination, and more, so providers can focus on patients, not paperwork. As the Customer AI Strategy & Success Lead – SMB, you’ll own relationships with Arya’s small and mid‑sized healthcare customers—fast‑moving operators who need a true partner to help them implement, adopt, and scale AI‑powered workflows across their organizations. This is not a passive account management role. You’ll work directly with operators, office managers, recruiters, schedulers, administrators, and healthcare leadership teams to deploy AI agents into real operational workflows. You’ll help customers redesign inefficient processes, improve adoption, solve implementation challenges, and drive measurable operational outcomes. You’ll operate at the intersection of customer success, implementation, operations, and AI strategy—helping healthcare organizations modernize how they work while serving as one of the closest voices to the customer inside Arya.
