About the Role

We’re looking for a Customer Experience Lead to take a strong, well-respected CX team into its next chapter.  At Aphex, CX sits inside the Product org and plays a critical role in how people understand, experience, and trust our product as it evolves. This role is about owning that responsibility, leading a distributed team who deeply understand how things work, how users actually use the platform, and how to turn complexity into clarity for both users and internal teams.  You’ll step into a team with a clear identity and solid foundations, and help extend its impact across product knowledge, support, communication, and enablement without losing the care and curiosity that make it trusted today.  This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who enjoys being close to the detail while also designing systems, rhythms, and partnerships that will shape how users experience Aphex over time.

Responsibilities

• Lead and mentor a distributed CX team across regions

• Set clear quarterly focus and projects that align with company and Product goals

• Ensure users receive fast, thoughtful support, and design how we communicate with users as the product evolves — partnering with Marketing and Product to shape product updates, release messaging, and ongoing user communication

• Own high-quality product knowledge, documentation, and internal enablement

• Oversee bug and feature request triage, ensuring issues are well-formed and actionable

• Play a key role in incident response and user communication when things go wrong

• Partner closely with Product, Engineering, Design, and Go-To-Market teams

Requirements and Skills

• Has experience leading or mentoring a team and is ready to step into broader ownership

• Is deeply curious about how products and systems work

• Enjoys untangling messy, ambiguous problems and explaining them clearly

• Cares about building trust with users and internal teams

• Is generous with knowledge, context, and time

• Experience in SaaS or customer-facing product teams is helpful, but mindset matters more than a perfect background

What We Offer

• A high-performing team Be part of and contribute to a genuinely collaborative and motivated team

• Flexibility Remote-first working with access to a convenient WeWork office

• The right tools A sweet MacBook Pro setup and a cutting-edge tech stack

• Genuine development Ongoing training, learning, and coaching to get better every day (including a training allowance)

• A focus on culture At Aphex, we are focused on making real impact, together, and strive to walk the talk on that every day

• Growth opportunities As Aphex scales across new markets, your career can scale with it

• Annual offsite: In 2025 our team met for a week in Da Nang, Vietnam - you’ll need to join us to see where we have planned in 2026!
