About the role

Who are we looking for?

Axle is looking for an Implementation Specialist who will lead the successful launch, integration, and go-live of our automotive clients, ensuring they are set up to operationalize insurance data within their workflows from day one.

As an Implementation Specialist, you will own the end-to-end deployment of Axle for new customers, driving technical integrations, workflow configuration, and launch readiness. You will work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Partnerships to deliver seamless launches and build scalable, repeatable implementation processes.

You will wear many hats and help build the operational foundation that powers Axle's growth as we scale.

What will you be doing?

  • Lead onboarding and implementation for dealer and rental customers by building trusted relationships with decision-makers, technical stakeholders, and daily operational users of Axle.
  • Drive successful launches by scoping integration requirements, managing project timelines, and guiding customers through API integration, UAT, and go-live.
  • Develop deep expertise in each client's technology stack, workflows, Axle integrations, and the broader automotive insurance landscape to provide tailored technical guidance and configuration recommendations.
  • Build and refine repeatable implementation playbooks, runbooks, and tooling that reduce time-to-launch and improve deployment quality across dealer and rental markets.
  • Own implementation milestones and kickoff-to-launch KPIs; track time-to-value, integration health, and launch readiness to ensure every customer hits production successfully.
  • Collaborate closely with internal Axle teams to identify friction in the implementation process, and implement new methods and tooling to consistently exceed launch targets.
  • Serve as the voice of the customer internally during implementation by translating technical feedback from dealerships, rental operators, and their IT teams into actionable insights for Product and Engineering.

What would set you up for success?

  • Beneficial to have experience implementing software for automotive, fleet, dealership, rental car, or automotive insurance programs, particularly in a B2B or enterprise environment.
  • 3+ years of experience in implementation, solutions engineering, technical account management, or professional services
  • Grit, enthusiasm, and a high degree of intellectual curiosity
  • Ability to partner closely with sales and engineering leadership to drive successful customer launches
  • Strong technical generalist with sharp product intuition and a track record of driving complex integrations to successful go-live
  • Comfort operating in a high-growth, ambiguous environment and excitement to build processes and tooling from the ground up
  • Ability to quickly grasp new technologies, APIs, integrations, and complex technical concepts
  • Ability to solve complex client challenges through creative problem-solving and cross-functional collaboration
  • Willingness to travel to client sites and conferences (at least twice per month)

What would be even better?

  • 6+ years of enterprise implementation or technical program management experience
  • Previous experience in B2B technology, automotive (dealer or rental), insurance, lending, or mortgage industries
  • Experience implementing software for dealers, rental car companies, fleet operators, OEMs, or large multi-location enterprise groups
  • Hands-on experience with API integrations, webhooks, and system-to-system data flows
  • Demonstrated ability to partner closely with Product and Engineering to deliver successful client launches

About Axle.insure

Axle is the AI-native clearinghouse for insurance, building the universal API infrastructure that bridges the multi-trillion dollar insurance industry with virtually every other sector. Founded in 2022 and headquartered in a Flatiron/NoMad office in NYC (with a West Midtown Atlanta presence), Axle's mission is to completely transform the communication layer for insurance — enabling companies to verify coverage, monitor policies, and make business decisions in seconds rather than hours, while helping consumers unlock their most underutilized financial asset. The platform powers agentic workflows and RESTful API integrations for Fortune 500 clients and household names including Rocket Mortgage, Hertz, Avis, Audi, USAA, and Experian. Axle has seen exceptional traction, with revenue growing 35% quarter-over-quarter to mid-7-figures ARR and best-in-class retention — all with a lean team of ~25 people. The company is backed by a blue-chip investor roster including Y Combinator, Gradient Ventures (Google's AI fund), Base10, and angels from Plaid and Cox Automotive, and recently announced a $17.5M Series A led by Base10. Culturally, Axle is a tight-knit, in-person-first team (4 days a week in office) that values real ownership, creative problem-solving, and moving fast — everyone drives measurable impact, and early team members are building verticals from the ground up.
