About the Role

As our founding Global Customer Insights Lead, you will establish the company's definitive source of truth for customer understanding, spanning NPS, competitive intelligence, and executive-level insight. This is a high-impact strategic leadership role for a curious, rigorous thinker who thrives at the intersection of data and narrative. You will stay close to our customers, synthesize qualitative and quantitative signals, and translate insight into decisions that meaningfully shape product direction, customer experience, go-to-market priorities, and overall company strategy.

• Own the company-wide NPS program end-to-end, including survey design, driver analysis, executive reporting, and action planning in partnership with business owners.
• Partner closely with Product to surface customer pain points, validate opportunities, inform roadmap prioritization, and measure the customer impact of product launches.
• Lead customer segmentation, persona development, journey analysis, and win/loss research to clarify who we serve, why we win, and where we need to improve.
• Build a disciplined customer listening system that draws from interviews, surveys, feedback channels, support themes, sales signals, and product usage data.
• Maintain a clear and current view of competitive dynamics and customer switching behavior to help leadership understand where we are differentiated and where we are at risk.
• Translate complex customer insights into compelling executive narratives for leadership reviews, board materials, investor discussions, strategic planning, and major company decisions.
• Partner with Marketing and GTM teams to sharpen customer understanding, refine positioning, strengthen proof points, and identify growth opportunities.
• Build dashboards and reporting systems in close partnership with Data and Analytics teams, leveraging tools such as Looker, Databricks, SQL, and AI-enabled analysis workflows.
• Hire, develop, and lead a high-performing distributed team of researchers, analysts, and competitive intelligence specialists across time zones.
• Set and uphold the standard for quality insight work with rigorous methods, practical recommendations, clear storytelling, and measurable business impact.
