About the Role
ABOUT ARTISAN
At Artisan, we’re building real AI employees - not copilots, not assistants, but autonomous teammates.
Our first, Ava, is an AI BDR. She finds and researches leads, writes emails in customers’ tone of voice, runs outbound sequences, self-optimizes, and manages email deliverability infrastructure. She learns, adapts, and improves over time - just like a human would.
We went through Y Combinator (W24) and have raised $35M+ from top investors. We’re at $7M+ ARR, with hundreds of customers including CookUnity, Quora, and SumUp.
We’re currently working on Ava 2.0, pushing the boundaries of what an AI employee can do. And we're hiring.
ROLE OVERVIEW
- Own onboarding, implementation, and go-live for enterprise clients
- Lead strategic business reviews, executive-level check-ins, and ROI discussions with C-suite and senior stakeholders
- Monitor adoption, usage, health, and key success metrics (e.g., value delivered, ROI, retention, NPS)
- Proactively identify upsell, cross-sell, and expansion opportunities within your accounts
- Serve as the primary point of customer escalation alongside customer support, managing complex issues and coordinating resolution with internal teams
- Advocate for your clients internally - convey product feedback, feature requests, and customer pain points to drive roadmap prioritization
- Build and maintain lasting relationships, ensuring clients view us as a strategic partner, not just a vendor
- Develop playbooks, scalable processes, and best practices for Enterprise CSM across the organization
Location: Remote, North America timezone

OUR CULTURE AND VALUES

- Obsessed with impact. We apply the 80/20 rule, kill sunk costs quickly, and focus on what actually moves the needle.
- Customer-first, always. Every decision is made with the customer experience at the center.
- High standards, every detail. Quality matters in everything we ship, from product and code to copy and design.
- Clear, direct communication. We value candor, fast responses, and feedback.
- Winning team energy. We bring positive vibes, low ego, zero drama, and genuinely enjoy building together.
