Associate Customer Success Manager, Scale

Who Are You?

You are a problem-solver first and a relationship builder second. You thrive in fast-paced environments where technical troubleshooting and customer support are your bread and butter. You have the startup adaptability to work in evolving processes and the customer empathy to maintain strong relationships without needing extensive strategic planning. You balance efficiency with genuine care, and you're equally comfortable diving into support as you are helping customers find success using technology.

You see customers as partners in solving problems, not just accounts to manage. You're ready to build with your team and grow with the company.

If this describes you, Kaleidoscope is thrilled you're here.

We're re-imagining the role of technology in the scholarship space. Millions of capable students face financial barriers, while organizations wanting to help often lack the infrastructure to do it effectively. We provide the tools, services, and support organizations need to launch and operate world-class scholarship programs. Our customers range from established foundations to corporations building community impact and future workforce, to individuals creating their legacy – and we're expanding into entirely new markets.

We're not just building software; we're supporting our partners in creating opportunity. If you care about impact and want to be part of a team moving the needle on real problems, this is the place. In 2025, we were awarded the best scholarship management software and top 50 EdTech software on G2.
