About Us

Sauce is a restaurant technology platform helping local businesses grow through commission-free delivery and pickup, powered by our proprietary delivery optimization technology. We serve a $105B+ U.S. local restaurant market and help restaurants own their digital and delivery operations end-to-end.

We’re a team that acts fast, stays close to the details, communicates with optimism, and supports one another relentlessly. We care deeply about delivering value for customers, improving a little bit every day, and using data and insight—not guesswork—to guide decisions. When challenges come up (and they do), we solve them together.

The Opportunity

Sauce’s Customer Success and Onboarding engines are already running with established processes and strong customer satisfaction. Now we’re looking for a Head of Customer Success & Onboarding to strengthen, scale, and streamline these functions.

This is a true player–coach role. You'll own strategic accounts and complex onboardings yourself, while elevating how the team operates—tightening predictability, sharpening communication, and making the customer journey more efficient and more consistent. You’ll help the team execute with clarity and confidence, ensure customers feel supported at every step, and build systems that reduce friction for everyone.

Success in this role means smoother go-lives, better adoption, clearer expectations, and customers who stay and grow because Sauce has become essential to their business.

What You’ll Own

• Team & Customer Outcomes
• Own team-level NRR / GRR, activation, time-to-value, and product adoption.
• Lead both CSM and Onboarding teams across customer segments—from long-tail to VIP.
• Ensure every customer follows a clearly defined, well-supported journey from contract to “Sauce is indispensable.”
• Create a culture where follow-through, collaboration, and steady execution build trust—internally and with customers.
• Build + Do (Player–Coach)
• Maintain, refine, and document onboarding and success playbooks so expectations are clear and consistent.
• Personally manage a small portfolio of strategic, complex, or at-risk accounts to stay close to customer needs and team realities.
• Work closely with Support to resolve issues quickly, spot patterns, and help translate learnings into product or process improvements.
• Model persistence, positivity, and outcome-oriented problem-solving for the team.
• Process & Tooling
• Maintain clean health scores, workflow tracking, and task management across the CS platform / CRM.
• Define and track SLAs for onboarding, activation milestones, and ongoing engagement.
• Partner with RevOps / Ops to maintain dashboards that give the team clarity and help guide day-to-day priorities.
• Use data to identify bottlenecks and opportunities—testing improvements and iterating thoughtfully.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration
• Align with Sales on clean, predictable handoffs and standardized customer expectations.
• Partner with Product to surface customer insights, support betas, and ensure feedback drives continuous improvement.
• Work with Marketing to generate testimonials, case studies, and referrals from successful customers.
• Foster open, positive communication across functions so teams move in sync.
