Maze is the user research platform that helps companies build the right products faster by making user insights available at the speed of product development. In most companies, research demand far exceeds supply. Time, cost, and lack of access to expertise hold teams back. In today’s AI-powered world, anyone can build a product fast. The real challenge? Deeply understanding user needs and building the right product. That’s where Maze comes in. We believe companies shouldn’t have to choose between building fast and building right. Maze makes research accessible, intuitive, and fast so product teams can put user insights at the center of every decision. Our platform enables researchers, designers, and product managers to quickly recruit participants, run studies autonomously, and surface insights that actually drive product decisions. Our AI capabilities automate the busywork and add depth and direction to the insights themselves.

This role focuses on supporting mid-market customers across NAMER, with a focus on Central and East Coast time zones. The Customer Success Manager will partner with some of Maze’s most impactful customers, helping them adopt Maze effectively while elevating their research maturity and confidence. This is a consultative, education-forward role, blending product expertise with research guidance, strategic advisory, and renewal ownership. You’ll thrive here if you’re a proactive educator, a strong relationship builder, and someone who loves helping customers unlock new capabilities through better research practices. Your remit spans driving adoption, strengthening research workflows, delivering measurable value, and owning renewal success for your book. Support customers in adopting Maze effectively and building confidence in their research practice. Advise on research methodologies, study design best practices, participant recruitment strategies, and insight analysis. Tailor guidance to customers across a wide research maturity range—from seasoned UXRs to teams new to research. Help customers scale research beyond individuals into broader cross-functional teams. Own the post-sale relationship and renewal strategy for a mid market book across NAMER. Drive adoption depth, feature utilization, and long-term engagement across multiple teams and organizational levels.
