Why This Role Matters

At Rapsodo, we know that the early stages of the customer journey are critical to long-term success. How customers are onboarded, set up, and supported in their first 30–60 days directly impacts whether they successfully adopt and continue using the product. 

Customers who are properly onboarded, set up correctly, and supported early are significantly more likely to activate, adopt, and continue using the product. 

This role exists to ensure that every customer has a smooth, structured, and successful start. By improving onboarding, installation readiness, and early customer experience, this role directly impacts activation, reduces early churn, and protects revenue. It also works closely with the Customer & Partner Enablement function to ensure that certification programs and training standards are effectively applied in real-world onboarding and installation scenarios.

Role Purpose

We are looking for a Customer Activation & Success Lead to own the early customer journey from pre-installation through initial onboarding and activation. 

This role is responsible for ensuring customers are set up for success from day one—through clear coordination, expectation setting, structured onboarding, and early engagement. 

This role does not own customer communication or lifecycle campaigns. Instead, it focuses on operational execution of onboarding and activation, ensuring customers successfully get up and running with Rapsodo products. 

This is a hands-on role with direct ownership of activation outcomes and meaningful influence across Customer Experience, Product, and Commercial teams.

• Identify gaps in partner readiness and surface them to Enablement  

• Ensure field execution aligns with defined onboarding and activation standards  

5.      Activation Insights & Feedback Loops 

Create visibility into activation performance and challenges. 

• Track activation progress, onboarding completion, and early customer success indicators  

• Identify recurring issues in onboarding, installation, or early usage  

• Provide structured feedback to Product, CX Operations, and Enablement teams  

• Contribute to improving onboarding processes and customer experience  

6.      Process Improvement & Scalability 

Continuously improve how activation is executed as the business grows. 

• Standardize onboarding workflows and activation processes  

• Identify opportunities to improve efficiency and consistency  

• Partner with CX Operations to improve systems, tracking, and workflows  

• Ensure the activation model scales with increasing customer volume  

Requirements

Role Qualifications

• 5–10+ years of experience in customer success, onboarding, operations, or related roles
