About Sunflower Labs
Sunflower Labs develops autonomous drone-in-a-box systems for private security. Our system combines an autonomous quadcopter, an automated charging base station and integrated software, with systems operating at customer sites worldwide.
The Role
We're looking for a Customer Success Manager to own after-sale care. During your working hours, you'll be watching for any customer whose system goes offline or whose camera stops triggering flights. You'll fully own integrations and site networking support, and work drone and base station issues through our support process. Most customers start with one site. Your job is to make that site work so well they want the next one, and to get the order for that next one. You'll report to our Head of Sales, with a dotted line to our support lead for support work, where severity sets the priority whatever the account size.
Your Qualifications
* 3+ years supporting connected hardware deployed at customer sites (drones, robots, cameras or IoT devices) in customer success, technical account management, solutions engineering or support.
* Experience working inside a ticketed support process.
* Hands-on network troubleshooting (TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, firewalls).
* Pulls and reads logs over SSH on the Linux command line.
* Experience integrating systems through webhooks, REST APIs or video streams (RTSP/ONVIF).
* A track record of growing the accounts you own: expansion orders, add-ons or renewals you found and helped close.
* Explains a technical problem plainly to a non-technical security manager.
* Asks the discovery questions that uncover a customer's next site.
Your Bonus Points
* Experience with VMS or alarm platforms such as Genetec, Hanwha, Verkada or Alarm.com.
* Hands-on troubleshooting of drones, robots or other autonomous systems beyond first-level checks.
* FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificate.
* Experience in physical security, working with integrators, monitoring centers or guard companies.
* Experience renewing or expanding lease or subscription contracts.
Conditions
This full-time position is remote within the United States, with occasional travel (about 10 to 15%) for customer go-lives and account reviews. Installation and hands-on servicing are handled by our integration partners and customers.

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
