As XDS scales its North American presence, after-sales service excellence will be a critical differentiator. We are seeking a Customer Success Manager to join us in our Santa Monica office. This role owns the end-to-end post-purchase experience: from support and warranty operations to repair center management and technical training, ensuring every customer interaction reinforces trust in the X-LAB brand. You’ll work directly with company leadership and China HQ to build scalable service infrastructure, develop customer support programs, and create a best-in-class after-sales operation from the ground up.

What You’ll Do

1. After-Sales Operations & Service Infrastructure

  • Design and launch the North American after-sales service framework, including warranty processing, repair workflows, parts logistics, and service-level standards

  • Stand up and manage relationships with authorized repair centers and service partners across the U.S. and Canada

  • Build and maintain a customer management platform with standardized KPIs, policies, and escalation protocols to drive operational efficiency

  • Develop tiered support processes that reduce escalations and improve first-contact resolution rates

  • Lead go-to-market rollouts for service products (e.g., extended warranty, maintenance plans) in coordination with marketing and sales teams

2. Technical Support & Training

  • Create and deliver training programs for technicians, field application engineers (FAEs), and internal support staff on XDS products, diagnostics, and repair procedures

  • Serve as the primary technical liaison between North American customers and XDS’s R&D and manufacturing teams in China

  • Collect and synthesize field feedback to inform product improvements, quality initiatives, and new product development

3. Cross-Border Coordination & Reporting

  • Act as the bridge between U.S. after-sales operations and China HQ on quality, warranty claims, parts supply, and product feedback

  • Establish reporting cadences and dashboards to track service KPIs (response time, resolution rate, NPS, warranty cost) for leadership visibility

  • Support localization of service documentation, SOPs, and training materials for the North American market

You’re a Great Fit With:

  • 5+ years of experience in after-sales service, technical support, or dealer/channel operations, ideally in consumer electronics, mobility, or hardware/technology companies

  • Proven track record building or scaling service operations—repair center management, warranty programs, dealer support infrastructure

  • Strong technical aptitude with hands-on experience in product diagnostics, troubleshooting, and field support

  • Experience designing and delivering technical training programs for partners, dealers, or field teams

  • Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills; ability to work effectively with Sales, R&D, Marketing, and Manufacturing

  • Strong organizational and project management skills; comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment

  • Outstanding communication skills in English (written and verbal)

You’re a Spectacular Fit With:

  • Strong experience in the cycling, micromobility, drone, automotive, or consumer hardware industry

  • Exposure to U.S.-Asia (especially China) cross-border operations and supply chains

  • Familiarity with CRM and service management platforms (Zendesk, Salesforce Service Cloud, Zoho, Jira, etc.)

  • Experience managing multi-site or multi-region service networks

Success Metrics

  • North American after-sales service infrastructure fully operational—repair network, warranty system, parts logistics, and support workflows in place

  • Customer satisfaction scores at or above industry benchmarks; measurable reduction in escalation volume

  • Service KPI dashboard live and reporting to leadership on a weekly/monthly cadence

  • Strong cross-border feedback loop established between NA field operations and China HQ R&D/Quality teams

Our Compensation and Benefits

  • Competitive salary

  • Demo bike fleet and comprehensive travel allowances

  • Generous time off policy

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage

  • Office space in beautiful Santa Monica, California
