Job Description
The Customer Success Platform (CSP) Senior Business Systems Product Manager serves as the strategic liaison between post-sales functional teams and the CSP technical delivery organization.
This role is responsible for deeply understanding the business processes, pain points, and workflow needs of assigned customer success functions - and translating those insights into clear, actionable requirements that inform platform design, configuration, and prioritization.
CSP Business Product Managers ensure that what we build truly reflects how our teams work. They shape the CSP roadmap by representing the voice of their assigned functions, maintaining tight alignment between business objectives, user experience, and technical execution.
They also play a key communication role - keeping stakeholders informed of roadmap progress, decisions, and upcoming changes, while ensuring the CSP Change & Comms team is equipped to cascade updates across the organization.
