Cursor · Series C · Website

Job Description

Our mission is to automate coding. The first step in our journey is to build the best tool for professional programmers, using a combination of inventive research, design, and engineering. Our organization is very flat, and our team is small and talent dense. We particularly like people who are truth-seeking, passionate, and creative. We enjoy spirited debate, crazy ideas, and shipping code.

We’re hiring a Customer Success Strategy & Operations Manager to help build the operating system for our AI Deployment Management (CSM) function. This role is critical to driving customer adoption, retention, and growth — and as the org scales fast, it needs an operating system to match.

About the role

There are early foundations in place, but much of the long-term system still needs to be built — from the metrics that matter, the cadences that drive decisions, the playbooks that scale. This is a rare chance to build that system from the ground up and shape how a fast-growing, high-stakes function runs for years to come.

This person will be a strategic thought partner and hands-on operator who is equally comfortable thinking big-picture with senior leadership and getting into the weeds to build the systems, models, and processes that let the org run on real data. They'll work cross-functionally with RevOps, GTM, and Finance to bring ideas to life quickly and iterate as the business evolves.

What you’ll do

  • Establish key metrics and compensation models for the ADM organization

  • Evaluate performance of the business, drivers and trends, and guide targeted action plans

  • Build, refine and optimize headcount and capacity models to ensure we make the right investments

  • Build, refine and optimize segmentation modeling to ensure we deliver the right service model that ultimately leads to revenue growth

  • Build and operationalize frameworks with the ADM organization, such as health scores, maturity models and corresponding playbooks that drive usage and growth

  • Build and operationalize dashboards that surface the right KPIs and insights at the right time to drive action across all levels of the organization

  • Build and operationalize an end-to-end operating cadence for the leadership team to support fast, informed decision-making

  • Serve as a trusted advisor to the leadership team; You can think big picture and also lean in to figure out how to get things done iteratively

  • Partner closely with cross-functional stakeholders in RevOps, Go to Market, Finance and more to bring concepts to life rapidly, and iterate and evolve together

  • Incorporate a global mindset into your work, taking into account local nuances and input and ensuring global plans stick regionally

You may be a fit if

  • Experience in Customer Strategy and Operations; Customer Success or Account Management focus strongly preferred

  • Builder mindset - you are comfortable building from the ground-up and are adept at flexing between launch and iterate vs. going deep

  • Strong analytical and modeling skillset

  • Strong operations mindset - you have an eye for critical foundations such as capacity modeling, staffing, planning and process

  • Experience with CS frameworks such as health scores and maturity models — but with an open-mindedness to evolve them to meet our business needs

  • Excellent stakeholder management skills, comfortable operating across levels and audiences to get things done

  • Strong project management skills, you can clearly outline what needs to happen and know how to keep your team informed and engaged

It’s a plus if you have…

  • Consulting, finance and/or data science background

  • Customer-facing experience

  • Experience in Business Operations, Sales or Services strategy & ops

  • Experience with company strategy such as localization, pricing, etc.

  • Experience with consumption based pricing
