Customer success · AI · Revenue retention
I find the revenue you're already losing.
Most companies chase new logos while revenue quietly leaks out of the accounts they already have. I build the systems that find those leaks and close them. Lately I've been building AI agents to take on part of that work.

The operating system behind my work
In every company I have worked in, customer success was run as a relationship job.I have always run it as an engineering one.
My first career was in the oil industry, as a project and QHSE engineer. There were two halves to that job. One was construction: building the gathering systems that connect the wells and carry the oil through to the central processing facility.
The other was prevention: finding the hazards before they turned into incidents, writing the protocols, and digging into root cause so the same thing never happened again.
I brought both halves with me. I still build the systems that connect things, and I still spend my time on what could go wrong before it does. I only changed what I was constructing, and what I was preventing.
Churn is not something that quietly comes over an account. It is a failure with a cause, and causes can be found, measured, predicted and designed out.
Capabilities
What I actually do
Solution architecture
I get involved before the contract is signed, not after. Mapping what the client is actually trying to achieve, designing the solution that fits it, then leading the implementation team that builds it.
Customer success operations
Onboarding that shortens time to value, success plans tied to the client's own objectives, and playbooks the CSM actually owns. Plus a handover that carries context from sales through implementation, so the CSM inherits the full picture instead of rebuilding it.
AI agents for customer success
Around nine skills and agents built so far, working inside the function itself. Business reviews, account segmentation, meeting actions, proposals. The aim is bigger than time saved: feed the AI everything a CSM does with their accounts, and it starts seeing risk before a person would.
Churn & retention engineering
Prediction first. Failure-mode analysis across the book, risk surfaced early enough to act on, and mitigation plays a whole team will actually run. Not a dashboard nobody opens.
Selected work
Problems, and what closed them
Two days of business review prep, done in thirty minutes
Executive business reviews were costing one to two days each, so they were being rationed. I built a skill that runs the same judgement a strong CSM runs, in the same order.
Prep time cut by roughly 95%The account that was ready to leave, twice
Close to a third of my book, sitting at 41% adoption, with a renewal coming. The configuration genuinely didn't fit how they worked, so I fixed that before touching anything else.
Adoption 41% to 75% · ~7x ROI · saved twiceOur metrics weren't showing leadership the value of customer success
Sales were strong and revenue was still going backwards. Rebuilding the function changed what the business chose to fund.
94% CSAT · team of 11 across three marketsA churn play every CSM would actually run
Good playbooks existed. Nobody ran them, because under pressure people fall back on instinct. So I built one that was easier to run than to improvise.

Scope
What I have owned
20+ and 11
An average of more than twenty T2 technical advisors at Apple Inc. Later a customer success team of eleven at Moove, three in Dubai and eight across international offices.
Silver to Gold
Aulysius was a monday.com Silver partner. I contributed to the work that took it to Gold.
To Platinum
At Meta Lean I helped the company reach Platinum partner status roughly five months after I joined.
Built from zero
The customer success function at Moove did not exist. I built it, staffed it, wrote the playbooks and made the case to leadership that it deserved investment.
The people who were there
Excerpts from LinkedIn, exactly as written. Each name links to the original.
“I regularly received unsolicited praise from customers and stakeholders in the business commending Mugieb's outstanding level of service, professionalism and follow-through. This also led to a generation of further business and repeat sales… he is certainly a team player, heading up a team and working with opinionated stakeholders of strong personalities and managing them well.”
“His leadership and strategic vision have been instrumental in guiding our team, while his adeptness at CRM software, data analytics, and customer segmentation has consistently driven our success… His emotional intelligence and empathy make him not just a great manager, but a fantastic colleague and mentor.”
“He is exceptional at customer retention, skillfully building strong relationships and addressing client needs with precision. When it comes to expansion opportunities, Mugieb has a keen eye for identifying potential areas of growth and presenting solutions that deliver mutual value for both the customer and the business.”

From defining ROI to demonstrating impact
Why customer success ROI has to be defined against your business model before you pick a single metric.
How to secure a fair compensation package
Understanding worth, articulating value, and timing the conversation. A weakness turned into a strength.
Have you ever asked why you chose that number?
Most KPIs are inherited, not reasoned. Asking why the target is the target is half the work of hitting it.
