Summary
Jonathan Ponciano is a Strategic Customer Success Manager with nine years of experience driving retention, upsell, and adoption for enterprise and global accounts across SaaS platforms. He has consistently sustained 100% ARR retention at multiple companies, led renewal and expansion efforts for a $20M+ Google partnership that delivered +53% YoY ARR and $14M in upsell, and exceeded MRR growth targets at RingCentral. Known for blending hands-on operational playbooks with polished executive storytelling, he builds cross-functional programs—playbooks, EBR templates, adoption campaigns—that scale customer value and reduce support friction.

Colleagues describe him as a proactive, data-informed operator who treats customer success as an ongoing journey rather than a checkpoint.
