Customer Success Manager

Company Background

Censys’ mission is to be the one place to understand everything on the internet. Frustrated by the lack of trustworthy Internet intelligence, we set out to create the industry’s most comprehensive, accurate, and up-to-date map of the Internet. Today, Censys delivers real-time Internet intelligence and actionable threat insights to global governments, over 50% of the Fortune 500, and leading threat intelligence providers worldwide.

At Censys, we help organizations understand and secure their internet-exposed infrastructure through real-time internet intelligence. Our platform enables security teams to identify exposures, reduce risk, accelerate investigations, and modernize security operations with authoritative visibility into the global internet.

We work with enterprise security teams, Fortune 500 companies, and government organizations that rely on accurate, actionable cyber intelligence to protect critical infrastructure and reduce operational risk.

We are looking for a strategic, technically credible, and customer-obsessed Customer Success Manager (CSM) to drive customer adoption, retention, and expansion across a portfolio of enterprise customers.

• Identify opportunities for upsell, cross-sell, and broader platform adoption
• Support customer advocacy initiatives including references, case studies, and advisory programs
• Maintain accurate account forecasts, health scores, and renewal data
• Serve as the voice of the customer internally
• Partner with Product and Engineering to communicate customer feedback and market needs
• Coordinate with Support and Professional Services to resolve customer issues effectively
• Contribute to scalable customer success processes, playbooks, and operational improvements
