Backed by a fiercely inventive community and 500+ builder-approved integrations, we’re changing the way people bring systems together and scale ideas for impact.
Since our founding in 2019, we’ve grown into a diverse team of over 160 - working across Europe and the US, connected by a shared builder spirit and with our centre of gravity in Berlin. Along the way, we’ve:
Cultivated a community of more than 650,000 active developers and builders
Earned 145k+ GitHub stars, making us one of the world’s Top 40 most popular projects
Been ranked as one of Europe’s most promising privately held SaaS startups (4th in Sifted’s 2025 B2B SaaS Rising 100)
Raised $240m to date, from Sequoia’s first German seed to our recent $180m Series C - bringing us to a $2.5bn valuation
And are grateful for our 94 eNPS score (most companies would call 70 excellent)

We’re looking for a Manager of Customer Success to lead our US CSMs. This role will report into the Global VP of Customer Success and is ideally based out of New York or Boston.
At n8n, Customer Success is mission-critical. Our customers are builders: developers, ops teams, and innovators automating their workflows and scaling their impact through n8n.

We’re in the exciting stage of building out the Customer Success function from the ground up: defining playbooks, shaping customer journeys, and creating the foundation for scalable growth.
We’re looking for someone who can lead by example - a strategic thinker with strong leadership skills who’s also eager to roll up their sleeves and build alongside the team.

You’ll also represent n8n as a customer-facing leader, partnering closely with teams across Sales, Product, and Support to ensure a seamless customer journey and long-term success.
