- Proven experience in a technical role supporting a technical or API-based product
- Passion and demonstrated experience in understanding complex systems (APIs, database, etc.), and finding solutions to technical problems
- Experience building and executing against Account Plans, including coordinating multiple roles on both sides of relationship
- Demonstrable track record of being scrappy, and finding creative solutions to tough, and oftentimes ambiguous problems

What the job involves
- By joining Pinwheel’s Customer Success team, you’ll be the driving force behind our customers’ success, working with everyone from trailblazing Enterprise fintechs to ambitious Credit Unions. Your mission? Help them crush their goals using our powerful API-driven platform
- This isn’t your average CS role. You’ll be hands-on from Day 1: leading onboarding with precision, optimizing usage for max impact, and uncovering expansion opportunities that nobody else saw coming. You’ll learn the ins and outs of our API, mastering everything from implementation to troubleshooting, while crafting onboarding processes that scale as we do
- You’ll analyze performance metrics, strategize optimizations, and bring fresh ideas to the table that transform “good enough” into “game-changing.” Through strong, authentic relationships with decision-makers, you’ll spot new use cases, pitch compelling solutions, and work side-by-side with Sales to unlock growth
- If you thrive in fast-paced, zero-to-one environments where your impact is massive and your hustle is noticed, Pinwheel is where you want to be
- Own the overall relationship for assigned customers, organizing multiple projects concurrently with customers
- Support customers throughout their entire Pinwheel lifecycle, including implementation, day-to-day needs, renewal and growth
- Provide technical guidance for customers during implementation and when rolling out new products
- Execute against Account plans you develop in collaboration with Account Managers and the Head of Success
- Contribute to department process and documentation
- Deliver superior, proactive customer success services to Pinwheel customers
Our take
Pinwheel builds an API that helps Neobanks access and modify their customers' payroll services. It's primarily focused on enabling easy direct-deposit switches in order to promote a fairer financial system for all.
Pinwheel is laser-focused on perfecting UX and product integration in this area, which has won the company coverage of over 70% of paid Americans, and nearly half of all Neobank direct-deposit switches. This secure market position will help it comfortably expand its client services into other API offerings like income verification.
As the US begins to competitively adopt the Open Banking methods already popular in the EU, Pinwheel has made some strategic partnerships, including Lumin Digital, Visa and Bankjoy. These collaborations are driving increased account activation and deposit growth for financial institutions, positioning Pinwheel as a key player in Open Banking methods.
