About the role:
The Customer Success Engineer (CSE) is responsible for designing, building, and delivering our products and third-party solutions to customers. As part of the Customer Success team, the CSE will participate in the European on-call rotation, and work outside of standard business hours may be required. This role involves working in secure or military environments, so successful candidates must undergo mandatory background screening.
Main Focus: As part of the Customer Success team, the CSE provides integration, consulting, training, post-sales professional services and support during the delivery process, to our growing list of customers. As secondary objectives, the CSE interacts with the product organization to discuss new features required by customers. He/she coordinates customer and internal interactions for specific accounts where extended services are provided in addition to standard support.
