Remote Customer Success Manager (marketing)

Way is building the AI, data, and infrastructure layer for the experience economy. As artificial intelligence automates labor and people reclaim time, the shift toward spending on experiences over things only accelerates. Way sits at the center of that shift as the platform, intelligence layer, and curated marketplace on which experiences are created, distributed, and sold. Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Austin with offices in Paris and San Francisco, Way built the category of experiences in hospitality from the ground up, during a pandemic that had shut the industry down.

Leading global travel, retail, lifestyle, and hospitality brands leverage Way, including Hyatt, Hilton, Alaska Airlines, Aspen, Piaget, and countless others. Way’s position is layered by design: a proprietary data network built on millions of experiential data points, the system of record for experiential operations, an e-commerce layer embedded directly into partners’ customer journeys, and a marketplace through Partner Exchange, where brands across hospitality, travel, lifestyle, and retail co-create and co-sell experiences with one another.

Every brand that joins makes the network more valuable to every brand already on it. That combination of data, workflow, distribution, and network effects is not something that can be vibe-coded into existence. The company has mid-8 figures of ARR from a global enterprise customer set, with outstanding growth and efficiency metrics. Way is looking for an experienced Customer Success Manager who thrives in the complexity of scaling a startup. This role requires someone who is organized, analytical, an effective communicator, and strong at relationship building.

The standard for building an exceptional software company has changed, and Way is being built to meet it, with urgency, ownership, and a pace of execution well above the industry norm. As AI absorbs more and more work, humans have more time and more money to spend on experiences, and the brands they spend it with need infrastructure they cannot build themselves.

Compensation: competitive salary calibrated to experience, and meaningful equity in a sustainably growing company with real value creation already realized.

Coverage: full health, dental, and vision.
The work: direct access to the world’s most recognized consumer brands and the mandate to move quickly on their behalf.
Experience firsthand: an annual hotel and travel stipend at the properties and partners in Way’s global ecosystem.
