This role requires an engineering or technical implementation background. MUST have previously worked as a Solutions Engineer, Deployment Engineer, Technical Implementation Consultant, or in a similar hands-on technical role before moving into customer success leadership. Pure CS or account management profiles will not be considered regardless of seniority. You will be managing Deployment Engineers who write production code. You must be technically credible enough to evaluate their work and hold your own on a call with a CTO.
About This Role
This is a player-coach role. You will personally own Whippy's most strategically important customer accounts while building and leading a mixed team of CSMs and Deployment Engineers across LATAM. You are the person we call when something goes wrong with a customer. You are the person who builds the playbooks, sets the standard, and makes sure Jack is not the only technical person on every call.
This is a ground-floor leadership opportunity at a bootstrapped AI company growing fast with no VC overhead. The person who executes well in this role grows into Head of CS and eventually VP as we scale.
What You Will Do
Personally own a portfolio of Whippy's most strategically important enterprise accounts
Manage and develop a team of CSMs and Deployment Engineers across LATAM
Build CS playbooks, onboarding frameworks, health scoring, and team standards from scratch
Act as the escalation point for complex and high-stakes customer situations
Run QBRs, account reviews, and executive-level conversations with enterprise customers
Partner directly with the CEO and CTO on team performance, customer health, and product direction
Support hiring and onboarding as the team scales
Be the bridge between our US customer base and our LATAM execution team
What We Are Looking For
Engineering or technical implementation background, this is required not preferred. Previous role as a Solutions Engineer, Deployment Engineer, Implementation Consultant, or similar before moving into CS leadership

Hands-on understanding of APIs, webhooks, and integrations from real experience, not just conceptual awareness
Proven ownership of complex enterprise customer relationships end to end
Builder mentality, you have created playbooks, frameworks, and processes from a blank page not just followed them
Strong English communication, written and spoken, for daily enterprise Zoom calls and direct CEO reporting
Location
Open globally. LATAM candidates based in Buenos Aires or Mexico City are strongly preferred. US-based candidates will be considered for the right profile. EST or CST hours required. Full English fluency required.
