Summary
Customer Success Manager with about 4 years in customer-facing SaaS roles. I own a portfolio of 42 D2C brands on a WhatsApp conversational-AI platform. I take brands from setup to go-live, configure their AI agents and integrations, and use conversation data to fix what isn't working. I build my own AI workflows with Claude, GPT, Sim Studio and Langflow, and I'm technical enough to debug APIs in Postman and trace issues in the codebase.
Experience
Customer Success Manager · BusinessOnBot
Dec 2025 – PresentWhatsApp AI agents & conversational commerce for D2C brands · Bengaluru
- Portfolio: own 42 D2C brands from onboarding and setup through go-live and daily success, on custom-built and Shopify stores.
- AI agent setup: configure and launch WhatsApp AI agents in Sim Studio and Langflow (prompts, flows, guardrails, tool calls). Guardrails written for 9 brand bots.
- Conversation review: Python script that cleans exported chat logs and removes test traffic, plus an LLM review prompt to find where agents fail.
- Root-cause fix at scale: phone-gated coupon codes were showing in Google results across 82+ brands. Traced it in the codebase, proposed the fix and raised the PR.
- Integrations: debug API issues and test messaging APIs (RML, 360dialog) in Postman; keep per-brand API test files.
- Voice of customer: brand issues become Jira bug, feature-request and product-feedback reports; repeated issues tracked across brands.
- Team & knowledge: lead a 4-person support team since July 2026. Own the knowledge base; built the public help centre and the internal SOP KB.
