We’re building OpenHands, an open-source AI platform that empowers engineering teams to accelerate development, automate workflows, and integrate intelligent coding assistance into real-world software delivery.

As a Founding Customer Success Manager, you’ll be an individual contributor owning the post-sale customer journey, from onboarding to expansion, helping enterprise and high-growth engineering orgs adopt OpenHands successfully and drive measurable outcomes.
