[Hiring] Customer Success Engineer II @RegScale

Role Description

We are seeking a Customer Success Engineer II (CSE) to own a portfolio of customer accounts and serve as both their primary point of contact for day-to-day success and their technical expert on the RegScale platform. This role blends the account ownership of a Customer Success Manager with the hands-on troubleshooting, configuration, and training skills of an engineer. You will work across the organization to ensure customers achieve adoption, retention, and measurable value from RegScale, and you will help customers navigate U.S. Federal compliance requirements such as NIST RMF and FedRAMP, so knowledge of the Federal space is essential.

This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives in a fast-paced startup, loves solving problems, and is passionate about making customers successful.

This position must be filled by a U.S. citizen and is subject to a background check and unannounced drug testing requirements.
