About Us
Amira Learning accelerates literacy outcomes by delivering the latest reading and neuroscience with AI.

Job Summary
We are seeking a
Success Manager
with practical experience partnering with customers in K‑12 education. This includes building relationships with district leadership, onboarding new customers, and engaging in data‑driven conversations regarding literacy intervention. This is an individual contributor, customer‑facing position.
Essential Functions
Build Trusted Relationships
You build strong relationships keyed to trust and a sense of mutual mission. You will spend about half your time (virtually or face‑to‑face) in district offices, schools, and/or classrooms, interfacing with instructional and school system leaders. You will communicate with educators about their adoption trends and sentiment, and mine opportunities for deeper engagement. Because of your ability to influence others, our customers act as Amira advocates and 90% of your districts renew annually.
Manage Accounts to Drive Usage
You onboard partners so schools and classrooms launch Amira with success. You create measures of success and keep a pulse on the health of at least 25 school district accounts. You provide insights to customers using data to drive Amira usage and implementation practices with fidelity, leading to impact (e.g. student growth).
You will know Amira’s product inside and out. You are often called upon to provide technical advice or training. You must be excellent at distilling the reasons why the product is working well and why it is failing to deliver value. You then convey this information back to R&D in an actionable form, working to find the right compromises between engineering and service implementation time/cost and customer value.
Use Product Data to Drive Value
You must be very comfortable with data in the education space. You will communicate in novel and compelling ways about adoption trends and sentiment, finding ways to passionately convey the value proposition when examining a district’s utilization and reading growth data.
You proactively mine for concerns or issues experienced by customers. You get ahead of these problems whenever possible by tracking early‑warning signs throughout the customer lifecycle and mitigating creatively and relentlessly. When necessary, you snap quickly into crisis management mode.
Qualifications (Education and Experience)
Bachelor’s degree, and/or relevant experience.
2+ years of customer success experience – preferably in the Education SaaS industry.
Experience implementing software solutions, preferably in the Education SaaS industry.
Proven track record of high (90%+) renewal rates and achievement of expansion goals and targets.
Great interpersonal, written and oral communication skills.
Preferred: Experience in education administration and/or a start‑up organization.
There will be 50% travel associated with this role.
Preferred Qualifications
You are a skilled relationship builder and problem‑solver.
You are highly organized and efficient, and demonstrate excellent prioritization skills.
You are a detail‑oriented manager of projects, initiatives, and/or teams.
You have a relentless work ethic, and obsess over achieving excellent results.
You operate in a highly efficient manner by multitasking in a fast‑paced, goal‑oriented environment.
You demonstrate a flexible and “team first” attitude.
You have a passion for literacy and equity in education.
You understand curriculum and software procurement in education.
