🏢 About PVcase

PVcase is revolutionizing solar design globally by developing software that maximizes energy yield and reduces carbon footprints. Unlike generic solar companies, PVcase focuses specifically on advanced design optimization technology, making it a leader in the renewable energy tech space. Working here means contributing directly to accelerating the global transition to clean energy through innovative software solutions.

About This Role

As a Customer Success Manager for Italian-speaking clients, you'll manage a portfolio of High & Medium touch customers across Europe, ensuring they achieve maximum value from PVcase's solar design software. You'll directly impact customer retention and expansion by conducting strategic business reviews (QBRs/EBRs) and collaborating with internal teams to enhance the customer journey. This role is crucial for driving adoption and demonstrating ROI to clients in the growing European solar market.

💡 A Day in the Life

A typical day involves analyzing customer health scores for your Italian-speaking portfolio, preparing for an upcoming QBR with a client in Italy to discuss their solar project ROI, and collaborating with the Product team on feature requests based on European market feedback. You might also join internal syncs with Sales to discuss account expansion and spend time troubleshooting adoption barriers with medium-touch customers via email or video calls.
