Founding Customer Success Manager

Cooper AI is building AI for commercial insurance, taking the manual, time-consuming work off professionals' plates so they can focus on what actually matters: serving clients and growing their business. Cooper works directly inside the tools teams already use, turning these workflows into fast, automated experiences that save hours every week and unlock meaningful efficiency gains.

Backed by Lightspeed, General Catalyst, and Valor, Cooper AI is building from the ground up to modernize a $1T+ global insurance industry.

As Cooper's first Customer Success Manager, you'll build the foundation of our post-sale customer experience. You'll own onboarding and activation for new customers, partner closely with customers to drive meaningful product adoption, and take responsibility for the health and retention of our existing accounts.

This is a high-ownership, highly cross-functional role for someone who enjoys operating in ambiguity. You'll help define the playbooks, processes, and customer-success motions that scale with Cooper as we grow.
