Principal Customer Success Manager

At Prophet Security, we are on a mission to automate the heavy lifting of security operations to compliment and expand the impact of Security Operations teams.

You will collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and Sales to translate customer feedback into roadmap priorities, ensuring we prioritize practicality over perfection. Your success is measured by high net-retention rates, your contributions to scaling the Customer Success function, and successfully creating customer evangelists. At Prophet Security, we value transparent communication and unwavering resilience; you will be the face of these values as you navigate the high-stakes environments of our largest stakeholders and the internal processes that drive progress for customers.
