Observability Success Architect

TLDR

Own and drive customer adoption, expansion, and retention for high-value US accounts by ensuring customer success with observability tools and strategies.

About SigNoz

SigNoz is an open-source observability platform — metrics, traces, and logs in a single pane, built OpenTelemetry-native from day one. 25k+ GitHub stars, 7,000+ Slack community members, users in 30+ countries. YC-backed, fully remote.


About the Role

You'll be SigNoz's first dedicated post-sales technical partner for our highest-value US customers. You'll own adoption, expansion, and retention for named accounts by making customers genuinely successful with observability — not by pushing quotes.

When a platform team is stuck instrumenting their Go microservices with OTel, you're the person they call. When a customer using only logs should be leveraging traces and APM across three more teams, you show them why and how.

You'll build this function from scratch — the playbooks, health scoring, QBR cadence, expansion motions. Everything.

What you'll do:

  • Own a named portfolio and drive NRR and adoption

  • Run technical onboarding — get customers to production-grade instrumentation fast

  • Conduct QBRs with economic buyers and engineering leads focused on observability maturity, not vanity usage charts

  • Identify expansion: new teams, new product pillars, deeper instrumentation across services

  • Monitor usage data to catch churn risk early and intervene proactively

  • Build the CS playbook that the next hires will follow

  • Be the customer's voice to product and engineering — translate customer reality into product priorities

What you should bring:

  • 3-5 years in a technical post-sales role (TAM, SE, Technical CSM) at an infrastructure, DevTools, or observability company

  • Hands-on with observability: can explain traces vs. metrics vs. logs to a VP of Engineering AND debug a broken OTel collector config with an SRE

  • Experience with some of: OpenTelemetry, Kubernetes, Prometheus, Grafana, or similar

  • Builder mentality — you've either built a CS function from scratch or are hungry to

Location

  • US-based, remote. Timezone alignment with US customers is non-negotiable. Some Travel to meet customers
