About Tavily
We’re building the search engine for AI agents. Our API is designed from the ground up to power RAG and real-time reasoning in AI systems. By connecting LLMs to high quality, trustworthy web content, we help developers build agents that are not only intelligent, but also informed.
We work with some of the most innovative teams in AI, from small startups shaping the ecosystem to the largest enterprises deploying AI at scale. Whether it’s powering sales assistants, research copilots, or internal knowledge tools, we’re the missing link between LLMs and the real world.
The Role: Customer Success Manager
As a Customer Success Manager (CSM) at Tavily, you will serve as the trusted advisor and bridge between Tavily and our enterprise customers. You’ll guide customers through their entire journey, starting from onboarding and implementation, through ongoing adoption and enablement, to renewal and expansion. You are both a relationship builder and a product expert, ensuring our customers unlock the full power of Tavily’s AI-powered search platform.
In this role, you will go beyond day-to-day customer success to become a strategic partner in shaping enterprise AI roadmaps. You’ll work closely with executives, architects, and technical teams to define how LLMs, intelligent search, and autonomous agents can be integrated into their workflows and long-term strategy. By helping customers design scalable AI adoption plans and navigate the rapidly evolving landscape, you’ll position Tavily not only as a product provider, but as a critical driver of their competitive advantage. At the same time, you’ll act as the customer’s advocate internally, shaping product direction and influencing innovation to ensure Tavily continues to deliver maximum value.
