Job description

TL;DR: We're hiring an Engagement Manager to help companies make full use of our AI-powered research platform. If you love building relationships, driving adoption, and making customers successful, let’s talk.

Background

Listen Labs is an AI-powered research platform that helps teams uncover insights from customer interviews in hours — not months. We help customers analyze conversations, surface themes, and make faster, smarter product decisions.

Company highlights:

  • World-Class Team: Founded by serial entrepreneurs (previous AI exit), former co-founders, and talent from Jane Street, Twitter, Stripe, Affirm, Bain, Goldman Sachs, and many more Sequoia-backed startups (plus IOI/ICPC backgrounds).

  • Hypergrowth: We're a fast-growing team backed by top-tier investors that's grown several-fold in the past year, and we're set on multiplying that again. We move fast, care deeply about craft, and love working with people who take ownership.

  • Traction: Rapid growth across segments with enterprise wins at Google, Microsoft, Nestlé, and P&G.

  • Performance: Industry-leading win rate driven by a highly differentiated product.

  • Market Validation: Consistently winning customers across all segments with over six-figure lands that lead to quick expansions.

  • Viral Product: Interviews are shared with tens of thousands of viewers, fueling PLG, organic expansion, and daily inbound from Fortune 500s.

What You’ll Do

  • Own the customer journey post-sale, managing onboarding, adoption, retention, and growth.

  • Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for key accounts.

  • Partner with sales to identify expansion and renewal opportunities.

  • Provide proactive guidance and support to maximize customer value.

  • Collect customer feedback and collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to shape our roadmap.

  • Develop and refine customer success playbooks as we scale.

Who You Are

  • 4-8 years of professional experience.

  • Experience in a customer-facing position is a plus.

  • Strong relationship-building, communication, and organizational skills.

  • Self-starter comfortable with ambiguity and fast-paced environments.

  • Experience with research, insights, or AI products is a plus.

  • Ability to work in our NYC office 5 days/week.

Life at Listen Labs

  • Competitive Compensation: We're backed by world-class investors, including Sequoia Capital, Ribbit, and Conviction, alongside Evantic, AI Grant, and Pear VC, and offer competitive compensation packages with meaningful equity ownership in a market where over 30B has been created in adjacent industries (Medallia, AlphaSense, GLG, Ipsos, Kantar). Our Sequoia partner, Bryan Schreier, was the first investor in Qualtrics—a $12B company tackling similar problems to ours.

    • The range for this role is $132,000 – $180,000 OTE. Actual compensation is influenced by a wide array of factors, including but not limited to skill set, experience, and work location. If this range doesn't match your expectations, we still encourage you to apply.

  • Benefits that Support You: Comprehensive healthcare and dental coverage, flexible time off to recharge, and an environment that values balance and trust.

  • Room to Grow: As an early member of the team, you’ll have the opportunity to take on new responsibilities, shape processes from scratch, and grow alongside the company. We value people who want to stretch beyond their role and build something lasting.
