If you are ready to launch your career in the dynamic and growing field of Customer Success and develop in-depth knowledge in modern software development, in today's DevSecOps tooling - then you should keep reading! We are adding more Customer Success Advocates (CSA) to ensure our customers continuously see value across the Sonatype Nexus Platform.

Why this role matters

Our users are software developers, security officers, and DevOps managers. We offer them subscriptions to valuable software that works. As long as our customers value their investment, they will continue to renew and expand their deployments.

Fortunately, our customers trust Sonatype and value their investments. This is proven by our 90%+ renewal rate -- one of the highest renewal rates in the software subscription business. But we choose not to rest on our laurels. If our customers are not optimised, adequately deployed, or have compromised rollouts due to their lack of time, technical know-how/resources, or understanding of best practices - it will inhibit our mutual ability to achieve success. That is why the CSA role is so meaningful.

• Knowledge of current SDLC and the tooling that development organizations use to build applications

• Ability and desire to learn modern DevOps tooling.
