Head of Customer Success

As the Head of Customer Success at Turnkey, you’ll build and lead our post-sales function — combining technical support, customer success, and developer experience under one roof. You’ll own the full customer journey after launch: ensuring integrations go smoothly, issues are resolved quickly, and customers expand successfully on Turnkey’s platform.

You’ll be responsible for hiring and developing a small but high-performing team, setting metrics and systems to measure success, and building the operational foundation for how Turnkey supports and grows its customer base. This is a player-coach role — you’ll jump into complex customer challenges yourself while building the structure that scales beyond you.

The ideal candidate is both strategic and hands-on: equally comfortable debugging a customer’s API issue as designing the KPIs, playbooks, and processes that define a world-class customer organization.

• Lead Turnkey’s customer team, spanning customer success and technical support functions

• Define and implement post-sales processes — onboarding, support, and account management — that deliver exceptional customer outcomes

• Set, track, and report on key metrics such as customer health, response time, NPS, churn, and expansion

• Serve as an escalation point for complex technical or operational issues and work directly with customers when needed

• Partner with Product and Engineering to surface recurring issues, product feedback, and feature requests

• Hire, mentor, and grow a team of customer success managers and technical support engineers as the company scales

• Build and maintain internal systems for ticketing, reporting, and documentation to ensure efficiency and visibility

• Drive proactive engagement with customers, identifying expansion opportunities and building long-term relationships

• Contribute to the overall customer experience strategy, aligning closely with leadership on company-wide goals

• 5+ years of experience in customer success, support, or post-sales leadership in a technical B2B environment

• Deep understanding of developer or API-driven products, with enough technical fluency to debug issues or guide support teams effectively

• Proven ability to build or scale a customer function from scratch — processes, playbooks, metrics, and hiring

• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills; you can move seamlessly between customer calls and leadership discussions

• Strong operational instincts — you know how to measure, optimize, and automate without losing the human touch

• High standards for customer experience and accountability — you set the tone for the team and lead by example

• Comfortable working cross-functionally with engineering, product, and go-to-market teams in a fast-paced environment

• Experience leading customer teams at a high-growth infrastructure or developer-platform company

• Background in crypto, fintech, or other high-security, high-stakes products

• Experience with metrics dashboards (Grafana, HubSpot, etc.) and data-driven decision-making

• Technical curiosity — you enjoy understanding how things work and helping customers use them better

• Track record of building tight feedback loops between customers and product teams

• Full benefits, including medical, dental, vision, life, disability, HSA/FSA, 401(k)

• Paid parental leave

• Unlimited PTO

• $3,000/yr learning and development budget to attend industry conferences

• Multiple team offsites per year

• Macbook Pro laptop

• Lunch stipend
