Axleinsure Customer Success Engineer at Axleinsure to manage customer support and scale the customer success function. Handle technical API support and build documentation and tooling for customer issues.
Responsibilities
We're looking for a Customer Success Engineer to help stand up and mature our customer success function. You'll be the primary point of contact for inbound customer questions, the operational backbone for GTM, and the driver of turning issues into repeatable systems.
Our customer questions range from technical API implementation details ("why is this request returning a 401?") to strategic conversations ("how should we be using Axle to power this workflow?"). This role requires someone who is technically fluent enough to debug API issues on their own, operationally sharp enough to manage multi-threaded customer issues, and structured enough to build the tooling and docs that let this function scale beyond one person.

Qualification
Previous experience in supportFamiliarity with the insuranceDiversity
Required
Technically fluent – You can read API docs, reason about HTTP request/response flows, debug authentication and configuration issues, and explain a 4xx vs 5xx to a customer without escalating to engineering.
Operationally sharp – You can run a workflow cleanly under time pressure, follow checklists tightly, and not drop the ball on the third item in a long thread.
Strong written communicator – You can defuse a frustrated customer, explain a fix clearly, and write internal docs that team members or agents can actually follow.
Systems builder – You instinctively turn the second time you do something into a template, the third time into a runbook, and the fourth time into a tool.
Self-starter – Joining at the early-stage means you'll need to define the workflow before you optimize it.
Comfortable with light tooling work – Retool, internal admin dashboards, SQL, or basic scripting. You don't need to be a software engineer, but you should be able to wire things together.
Previous experience in support, solutions, customer success, or technical implementation at an API-first or developer-tools company is a strong plus.
Familiarity with the insurance, fintech, lending, or mobility space is a plus, but not required.
