At ReadMe, we’re committed to cultivating a diverse and inclusive workplace. We welcome people of all backgrounds, experiences, abilities, and perspectives. We are an equal opportunity employer and a pleasant and supportive place to work. We'd love to have you come join us here! ReadMe is open to hiring folks fully remote in the US, hybrid, or in-person at our San Francisco HQ or New York office.
The Technical CSM is a perfect role for someone who has some technical expertise, lives on the front line of the API industry, and wants to own the customer relationship at a fast-moving startup. Are you super organized, proactive, and like to quarterback your book of accounts? Do you have a knack for explaining technical concepts while also building relationships? Do you want to work closely with big-name companies to guide their implementation and ongoing optimization of their solution? If so, you‘re the person we’re looking for!
At ReadMe, the Sales team finds companies that we can solve problems for, and you take over from there. Your role is to oversee a swift and effective implementation, partner with the customer to have a successful first year, identify opportunities for growth and optimization, and make sure the right resources get tapped in to support whatever the customer needs to be successful with ReadMe. You’ll be the first point of contact, and will be able to answer front line technical questions as well as configuration and strategic best practices, but you’ll also be responsible for managing communications, projects, and tickets when the technicalities get more complex and require engineering, solutions architects, technical writers, or support.
We're a small team of humans (and one owl) working together to do big things, and we’re growing. Since we’re a startup, you’ll have the opportunity to make a huge difference! You’ll have lots of opportunities and flexibility to make outsized improvements to ReadMe beyond your daily responsibilities.
ReadMe helps companies build beautiful, personalized, and interactive developer hubs. We love what we do because it’s so much more than just docs. We’re providing tools for teams to create and manage beautiful documentation with ease. Last year, we raised a Series A led by Accel, which we’re pretty excited about!
We've written on our blog in the past about how we interview, and feel free to browse our other blog posts as well if it strikes your fancy!

We can’t wait to read your resume and (hopefully personality-filled) cover letter! Let us know what excites you about the role, and help us get to know you better!
If we think we might be a good fit for you, we’ll set up a phone chat with one of our Customer Experience teammates! We’ll tell you more about the role, and get a chance to hear about your experiences.
Next, we'll give you a short take-home assessment that you'll then go over on a call with Andrew Erdman, one of our Solutions Architects.
Then we’ll invite you to an "onsite" interview conducted over Zoom! We start with a 30-minute get-to-know-you with the Customer Experience and Sales teams so you can meet the people you’ll be working with, and then have you talk with people one on one in the afternoon.
We’ll let you know how things went within a week! If it still seems like a good fit all around, we’ll extend you an offer! If not, we will update you to let you know so you aren’t left hanging.
