About The Position

At EKN Engineering, we solve challenging problems with innovative engineering and configurable software solutions. We use an engineering-first approach, combined with data-driven strategies, to improve overall compliance, risk management, and design accuracy tailored to the specific needs of each client. With decades of experience in engineering, our team of over 170 professionals in Irvine, California is dedicated to building a safer and more efficient tomorrow through engineering and technological innovation. We’re looking for a Customer Success Specialist to join our growing Customer Success team. This is a foundational role on a small, high-impact team — you’ll play an active part in shaping how our customers experience our platform from their first onboarding session through ongoing day-to-day support. This role is an even split between implementation and support. You’ll help new customers get up and running on our Utility Management software over.vu, then stay close to those customers as their primary support resource. Over time, you’ll take on increasing ownership across both functions.

Requirements

0–3 years in customer success, project coordination, or project management.

Ability to break problems down, follow the logic, and find clean solutions in no-code and automation tools
Comfortable in Jira, Microsoft Power Automate, or similar workflow and automation platforms.
Comfortable with autonomy, able to identify what needs to happen next and pursue action.
Customers trust you to guide them—not just fulfill requests—and you can confidently push back when something will not work while suggesting a better approach.
Ability to explain complex logic and make customers feel confident, not overwhelmed
