FirmPilot is the first generative AI platform built specifically to power modern marketing for law firms. We drive real outcomes through intelligent automation, data driven SEO, and performance focused content strategies. Our customers range from small law firms to established practices that need smarter, faster, and more scalable marketing. We are backed by top tier investors and are growing quickly.
We are building a team of high performers who take ownership, move fast, and expect to make an impact. This is a company where high agency is the expectation, hard work is the baseline, and results matter. If you want to build something meaningful at a company that operates with urgency, this is the place.
About the Role
We are hiring a Director of Customer Success to lead and scale our Customer Success organization. This is a player coach role for someone who understands what it takes to build and operate a retention focused CS function at a growth stage company.
You will inherit a team of Customer Success Managers, with plans to continue growing the team over the next year. Approximately two thirds of your time will be spent building and refining the systems, playbooks, and processes that drive customer outcomes and retention. The remaining time will be spent directly owning and supporting high value accounts.
Gross Dollar Retention is a core focus for 2026, and this role will be central to achieving that goal.
This is not a hands off leadership role. We are looking for someone who can lead strategic conversations with senior clients, coach CSMs through complex renewals, and build scalable infrastructure all within the same week. You will report to the VP of Customer Success and play a key role in shaping how the CS organization evolves as FirmPilot scales.
