About Deck

Deck is building the data infrastructure for the internet. We make scattered, login-protected data instantly accessible through clean APIs and integrations—empowering businesses to act fast and smart, with no friction.

We’re a team of builders from top-tier tech companies who believe one thing: great ideas need great data. If you thrive in early-stage chaos, own your work like a founder, and think in frameworks—not features—Deck might be your next home.

The Role

We’re looking for a Head of Client Success to unify and scale Deck’s client success engine. This role goes beyond managing renewals: it’s about building the entire engagement lifecycle from signed deals to successful kick-off and long-term partnership growth.

This is a leadership role requiring both strategic design and hands-on execution. You’ll work closely with the commercial, product, tech, and operations teams to create the systems that make our clients successful and turn adoption into expansion.

Priorities
  • Unify Account Management Function
    Build a coherent AM practice that covers onboarding, engagement, support, and growth across all clients.

  • Design Engagement & Support Strategies
    Develop playbooks for client touchpoints from signed deal through kick-off, implementation, and ongoing value delivery.

  • Tier Clients for Scaled Impact
    Define and optimize a client tiering system that ensures high-touch service for strategic accounts and efficient scaled solutions for mid- and lower-tier clients.

  • Build & Lead a Team
    Recruit, coach, and grow a team capable of supporting all client tiers with consistent excellence.

  • Drive Growth Opportunities
    Establish signals and processes to identify upsell and cross-sell opportunities, looping in the commercial team at the right moments.

  • Be the Voice of the Client
    Partner with product and operations to surface insights, escalate issues, and influence roadmap priorities based on real client needs.

What Success Looks Like
  • A unified AM org delivering seamless onboarding, adoption, and ongoing support.

  • Clear client tiering framework in place and actively driving efficiency.

  • High retention and satisfaction across all client tiers.

  • Predictable upsell pipeline sourced from AM function.

  • Scalable playbooks, systems, and reporting to manage client health.

Must-Haves
  • 8+ years in Account Management, Customer Success, or related functions, including leadership roles.

  • Experience building teams and processes from the ground up.

  • Strong operational rigor and ability to scale systems.

  • Client-first mindset with executive presence.

Nice-to-Haves
  • Background in SaaS, data platforms, or sustainability tech.

  • Experience with upsell/expansion motions tied to account management.

  • Exposure to utility, energy, or real estate sectors.

Why Join Deck?
  • Competitive pay for the right skills

  • Proven leadership with a track record of big results

  • Significant ownership and autonomy in how you operate

  • A team of exceptional peers tackling complex, high-leverage problems

  • Momentum: recent fundraise by top-tier investors, massive whitespace, and accelerating traction

Deck isn’t just a product—it’s a mission. We believe that businesses should spend more time thinking and building, and less time wrestling with data plumbing. If that vision excites you, and you’re energized by early-stage speed, ambiguity, and intensity—let’s talk.
