Max WeinerCustomer Success Leader · CS & AI Strategist · Coach

I've spent about 12 years in Customer Success, and my career splits neatly into two halves: building from scratch in startups, then bringing that same builder instinct to enterprise accounts at public companies like Appian and Cloudflare, where I've sustained 120%+ net revenue retention across strategic books. I'm proactive with data, quick to become a trusted advisor, and increasingly putting AI to work. Simply put, I get stuff done.
