Job Description

We're looking for a Client Engagement Manager to join our remote team (Mirantis Customer Success Team). You'll be working closely with our clients and ensuring they get the most impact out of their solutions with us. These solutions include Mirantis Container Cloud, Mirantis Kubernetes Engine, Mirantis Secure Registry, and Mirantis Container Runtime.

You’ll be the client’s key contact, handling important conversations, keeping billing, admin, and contracts on track, and stepping in with a calm head if the unexpected happens. A big part of your role is communicating and keeping people aligned both internally and externally. Running client meetings and syncs, showing clients how their setup is performing with real numbers, and flagging potential concerns based on what the data is telling you. Internally you’ll act as the central link between our tech, product, and finance teams to make sure client onboardings, handoffs, and everyday requests are dealt with effectively.

Mirantis’ Customer Success team’s goal is to delight millions of developers and system administrators who rely on the Mirantis Container platform to build, share, and run their distributed applications all over the world. Our customer base spans from individuals to SMBs to large global enterprises.
