We’re looking for a Strategic customer success manager to lead AI-powered transformation for our Fortune 100 healthcare and life sciences customers.

They can work hand-in-hand with clients to surface pain points, then translate them into targeted solutions leveraging WRITER’s multi-agent platform and suite of AI-powered tools. Beyond solving individual problems, they’ll enable entire organizations to become transformative in how they adopt generative AI.
As our Strategic customer success manager, you’ll refine and execute our processes for onboarding, adoption, and retention within the Healthcare and life sciences sector. With an NRR of +130% and GRR of +95%, you’ll be building upon a world-class foundation to drive even greater success.
