About the role
TL;DR: We're hiring a Strategic Engagement Manager to help companies make full use of our AI-powered research platform. If you love building relationships, driving adoption, and making customers successful, let’s talk.
Background
Listen Labs is the world's fastest AI research platform, built so every company can understand what their customers want, why, and what to do about it. Our AI conducts in-depth interviews, analyzes conversations, and delivers executive-ready insights in hours, not weeks. Born out of a Harvard research project, Listen is trusted by teams at leading brands like Google, Microsoft, Anthropic, Perplexity, Sweetgreen, Replit, and Nestlé to bring real customer voices into their biggest product, marketing, and growth decisions.
Company Highlights
- World-Class Team: Founded by serial entrepreneurs - Alfred (Bemlo, YC W22) and Florian (IOI medalist, ICPC World Finalist) - and built with talent from Google, Meta, Tesla, Amazon, Jane Street, and X, alongside Bain, Goldman Sachs, McKinsey, and Sequoia-backed startups like Applied Intuition, Scale AI, and Rippling. Over 30% of our team are former founders, and multiple are competitive programming medalists.
- Hypergrowth: Since launching, Listen has grown annualized revenue 15x and completed over 2 million interviews - backed by $100M in total funding led by Ribbit Capital, with Sequoia, Conviction, and Pear VC participating.
- Traction: Already serving 15% of Fortune 100s. Enterprise wins and expansions across Anthropic, Microsoft, Nestlé, Perplexity, Sweetgreen, and more - with teams telling us research that used to take six to eight weeks now happens in days.
What You’ll Do
- Own the customer journey post-sale, managing onboarding, adoption, retention, and growth.
- Serve as the primary day-to-day contact for key accounts.
- Partner with sales to identify expansion and renewal opportunities.
- Provide proactive guidance and support to maximize customer value.
- Collect customer feedback and collaborate closely with product and engineering teams to shape our roadmap.
- Develop and refine customer success playbooks as we scale.
Who You Are

- Strong relationship-building, communication, and organizational skills.
- Self-starter comfortable with ambiguity and fast-paced environments.

- Competitive compensation: Backed by world-class investors including Sequoia, Ribbit Capital, Conviction, and Pear VC - we hire the best and treat them accordingly, with meaningful equity ownership.
- Annual Learning Stipend: Books, courses, conferences, coaching, language lessons - almost anything that makes you sharper.
- Annual Wellness Stipend for your health and headspace: Gym memberships, race fees, massages, ergonomic gear, and more.
- Monthly Stipend for AI tools: A dedicated budget for the software and GPU credits that make you faster.
