The Director of Customer Success will define the vision for customer success, drive adoption and retention of the product, lead a high-performing team, and ensure technology translates into meaningful outcomes for K-12 institutions.
Kiddom is redefining how technology powers learning. We combine world-class curriculum with cutting-edge AI and modern SaaS infrastructure to help schools deliver truly personalized education at scale. Our platform equips educators with real-time insights and flexible tools, enabling them to focus on what matters most—driving student growth and equity.
We’re not just building ed-tech; we’re disrupting an industry that’s been slow to innovate. At Kiddom, Customer Success Leaders sit at the center, partnering with district administrators, school leaders, and educators to ensure technology translates into meaningful outcomes. By aligning closely with product, engineering, and GTM teams, they design and deliver onboarding, training, and support experiences that drive adoption, retention, and long-term impact in classrooms.

You will:
- Define the vision for customer success – Build and scale a strategy that ensures districts, schools, and educators achieve measurable outcomes with Kiddom.
- Drive adoption and retention – Partner with GTM, product, and curriculum teams to ensure customers not only implement Kiddom successfully but continue to expand their usage over time.
- Lead with impact – Shape programs that connect educators to insights, training, and support that translate into student growth and district-wide success.
- Build and scale a high-performing team – Recruit, develop, and coach a team of customer success managers and support specialists to deliver exceptional experiences.
- Transform onboarding and implementation – Reimagine how schools and districts adopt Kiddom, building streamlined, data-informed workflows that accelerate time-to-value.
- Champion the voice of the customer – Act as a critical partner to product and engineering, ensuring customer needs and feedback shape the roadmap.
- Operationalize success metrics – Define KPIs for adoption, engagement, retention, and NPS, ensuring data-driven visibility into team and customer performance.
- Represent Kiddom with senior district leaders – Build trusted partnerships with superintendents, administrators, and decision-makers, positioning Kiddom as a strategic partner.
What we're looking for:
- 10+ years of experience in customer success, account management, or related roles, with at least 5 years leading teams in a SaaS environment.
- Proven track record driving adoption, retention, and expansion at scale in K–12, ed-tech, or similarly complex enterprise SaaS markets.
- Strong leadership and coaching abilities—you’ve built and scaled teams that consistently exceed targets and delight customers.
- Operational rigor—you can design systems, playbooks, and processes that bring clarity and consistency to a fast-moving environment.
- Executive presence—you’re comfortable engaging with district and school leaders, building credibility and trust.
- Exceptional cross-functional influence—you can align customer success with product, engineering, curriculum, and GTM strategies.
- Passion for impact—you care deeply about education and want to shape technology that improves equity and outcomes for students.

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
