Customer Success Specialist

Our Story and Purpose

Linden Lab develops platforms that empower people to create, connect, and thrive through transformative virtual experiences. Since our founding in 1999, we've been at the forefront of the creator economy, building platforms that inspire limitless imagination and innovation.

In 2003, we revolutionized the virtual world with the launch of Second Life-a vibrant, user-driven community where creativity knows no bounds. With nearly two billion user creations and a flourishing $500 million economy, Second Life continues to be a global hub for collaboration, self-expression, and entrepreneurship.

We believe our strength lies in diversity-of perspectives, experiences, and ideas. Our values are rooted in organizational health, strengths-based leadership, and the belief that collaborative teams are stronger than individuals.

At Linden Lab, you'll be at the cutting edge of virtual worlds, shaping the future of immersive experiences. Whether you're building innovative tools or fostering a welcoming community, you'll find a place to belong, thrive, and be unapologetically yourself. We invite you to come as you are.

Your Mission

This location-specific role is tied to our Atlanta worksite and requires a fully on-site schedule. Employees in this role must work in person at our Duluth, GA office five days per week, with schedules that may include weekends based on business needs.

Our Customer Success Specialists are vital members of the front-line team, dedicated to ensuring that Second Life customers achieve maximum value from the platform through personalized, proactive support and success guidance. You will help customers resolve technical issues while also delivering a high-touch, personalized experience.

Your primary responsibility is to deliver exceptional support to Second Life's highest-value customers, such as Concierge and Premium Plus members.

Your goal is not only to resolve issues but to foster long-term success and engagement for all our valued customers.
