About the Role

At Checkmarx, we help the world's leading organizations secure the applications that run their businesses. As a Customer Success Manager (CSM), you'll be the trusted advisor who ensures our clients don't just adopt Checkmarx, they thrive with it.

  • You'll build success plans with clear goals and milestones, track health and engagement metrics, and lead business reviews (QBRs/SBRs) that show clients exactly what value they're getting; and where more is available.
  • From onboarding through stabilization, adoption, and renewal, you'll be the throughline of the client experience, coordinating smooth handoffs between teams and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
  • You'll keep a close eye on usage trends, sentiment, and health indicators, stepping in early to resolve issues and manage escalations with calm, clear communication.
  • You'll be the connective tissue between Support, Technical Account Management, Product, Training, Professional Services, and Account Management, giving each team the context they need to deliver for the client.
  • You'll run tight, purposeful client meetings, keep documentation current, and continuously look for ways to improve how we deliver success, sharing client trends and feedback back into Product.
  • You'll build deep working knowledge of the Checkmarx platform relevant to your clients, and use your understanding of the application security landscape to guide smarter conversations and recommendations.
