Customer Success Lead at Complete in San Francisco, CA

About the company

Complete is built around a simple belief. Compensation should be one of the most thoughtful and well understood levers in a company. Not something hidden in spreadsheets or explained differently depending on who you ask. Everyone involved should be able to see it, trust it, and work with it.

We help teams build compensation infrastructure that actually scales. Fair, consistent workflows powered by real market data and clear analytics. When comp is set up this way, it creates alignment across leadership, managers, recruiters, and employees, and it becomes a source of confidence rather than friction.

Complete supports the full compensation journey, from interactive offers and job levels to comp cycles and total rewards statements. It is one connected system designed to help companies pay people well, communicate clearly, and attract and retain exceptional talent without the chaos.

Why Complete?

If you’ve ever been curious about how compensation decisions are made, whether people are paid fairly, or how executives think through these choices, you’d likely feel at home here.

We’re building in a high autonomy environment where your work has real impact and your voice shows up in the product every day. You are trusted to own problems, move quickly, and help shape what we build. This is a place where opinions matter and good ideas turn into shipped work.

We care deeply about working with thoughtful, driven people who want to do meaningful work alongside a strong team. We are rethinking compensation through AI powered workflows, and we take that work seriously while still having a lot of fun along the way.

Complete is backed by Accel and YC. We're also lucky to count technology leaders and operators like Will Larson (CTO of Carta), Eric Sagar (COO of Plaid), and Mathilde Collin (CEO of Front) as our angels and advisors.

Who we are?

• 🎯We are deeply customer-driven builders. We spend real time with our customers, listen closely to what is working and what is not, and use that feedback to constantly improve the product. Product conversations are not abstract here. They are grounded in real use cases and real people. If you love to throw on a PM hat, welcome!
• 💜We care a lot about building the right thing, not just building fast. That shows up in how we hire, how we run product reviews, and how every team member contributes ideas. Everyone has a voice, and everyone is accountable for making the product and the team better.

Each person here is motivated by feedback, ownership, and the shared goal of building something truly excellent together.
