This role is responsible for ensuring customers get lasting value promised during sales cycle of INS's products and services - from onboarding, order fulfillment and deployment support through renewals, expansion, and long-term account health. CSM guides customers in adopting OEM hardware, software, subscription, support, and lifecycle services, identifies adoption barriers and coordinates actions to remove them. Because INS operates a two-tier model, Customer Success Manager must be equally comfortable enabling a system integrator partner to succeed with their own end users, and managing a direct relationship where INS is the only vendor in the room.

Customer Success Manager leads the formal handoff from Sales to Delivery, validating commercial scope, purchased entitlements, customer objectives, key stakeholders, success measures, risks, and next steps. Customer Success Manager builds and maintains Customer Success Plans for assigned accounts, documenting customer business outcomes, technical use cases, success milestones, adoption actions, stakeholder maps, renewal dates, risks, and expansion hypotheses. This role establishes a governance cadence with customers, including onboarding sessions, regular success meetings and QBRs in partnership with account management. The position is responsible to Identify cross-sell and upsell opportunities based on customer business priorities and demonstrated adoption needs. The ideal candidate will have prior experience in Customer Success Management, Account Management, Sales Support or a similar customer and / or vendor facing role with a strong understanding of sales, fulfillment and contract renewal processes. This role requires customer relationship management, techno-commercial acumen, ability to think strategically and effectively manage conflicting priorities across a diverse account portfolio and vertical markets, strong verbal and written communication, and collaboration skills.

Build a clear understanding of each account's business, technical environment, and vertical market (e.g., Oil & Gas field deployments vs. Retail store rollouts vs. Water/Wastewater SCADA networks) to tailor engagement accordingly. For system integrator partners, understand and support their end-customer relationships, helping them succeed with their own clients rather than managing those end users directly.

Identify expansion opportunities within existing accounts (additional sites, verticals, product lines, or services) and partner with Sales to pursue them. Monitor account-level quoting and order activity (in coordination with Order Management) to spot patterns - declining order frequency, delayed quotes, or shifting needs — that signal risk or opportunity. Cross-Functional Coordination Act as the customer's internal advocate, routing quote requests, order issues, technical questions, and escalations to the right internal team (Order Management, Engineering, Support) and following through to resolution.
