What We Are Looking For
Arable is seeking a Customer Success Manager to support growers and agricultural partners throughout Southern California.
This role is responsible for the overall customer experience—from initial implementation and field installation through training, ongoing support, product adoption, and long-term relationship management.

You should be comfortable working in the field, discussing irrigation and crop-management practices, and communicating confidently with growers, farm managers, consultants, and project partners.

At Arable, our mission is to connect the world’s farms to optimize the global food system.
As agriculture faces the dual challenge of feeding a growing population while conserving natural resources, we provide the data and insights that help farmers use water more efficiently and make better-informed crop-management decisions.
By digitizing the analog world, we empower producers to improve productivity, protect water resources, and strengthen resilience across their operations.
Examples of Our Work
- Helping growers improve irrigation decisions through field-level data and insights.
- Supporting agricultural and technology partners in meeting sustainability and climate-resilience goals.

You will also help customers interpret Arable’s data and understand how it can support better irrigation, crop-management, and operational decisions.
Many of the projects you support may involve multiple stakeholders, including growers, farm managers, consultants, irrigation specialists, commercial partners, and other organizations. You will need to build credibility across these groups, communicate clearly, and serve as a dependable resource who can help move projects forward.
This is a hands-on, field-oriented role that combines customer success, agricultural expertise, technical support, and relationship management.
What You’ll Do:
- Manage the customer experience from implementation and onboarding through ongoing adoption, support, and renewal.
- Build strong, trusted relationships with growers, farm managers, agricultural partners, and other project stakeholders.
- Coordinate and support the installation, setup, monitoring, and maintenance of Arable field devices.
- Serve as a knowledgeable resource on regional agriculture, irrigation practices, and water-use efficiency.
- Understand each customer’s goals, challenges, and operating environment, and tailor support accordingly.
- Conduct regular customer check-ins, field visits, project reviews, and training sessions.
- Identify and resolve customer concerns, coordinating with internal teams when additional technical or product support is required.
- Drive customer adoption, satisfaction, retention, and long-term value.
- Gather customer feedback and share field insights with Arable’s Product, Agronomy, Engineering, Commercial, and Customer Success teams.
- Help identify opportunities to expand Arable’s value within existing customer relationships and projects.
- Maintain accurate records of customer activities, project progress, risks, and follow-up actions.
- Travel regularly throughout the Southern California territory, with periodic overnight travel to Lodi and occasional travel to other Arable locations.

- Strong communication, training, problem-solving, and organizational skills.

- A hands-on working style and comfort spending time in agricultural field environments.
- Willingness to travel frequently throughout the region, approximately 25–40%, with occasional overnight travel.
- Comfort safely accessing irrigation equipment or working at moderate heights when required, following all safety procedures.
- A bachelor’s degree in agronomy, agriculture, crop science, irrigation, agricultural engineering, business, or a related field—or equivalent practical experience.
- A genuine interest in helping customers succeed and advancing more efficient, sustainable agricultural practices.
What We Offer
Join a passionate, mission-driven team working at the intersection of agriculture, climate, water, and technology.
- Competitive base salary with performance incentives
- Excellent health, dental, and vision coverage

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a People Operations Manager
Verify your role meets specialty occupation
USCIS scrutinizes People Operations roles more than technical positions. Pull the O*NET profile for HR Managers to document that your specific duties require a directly related bachelor's degree, not just any degree.
Target employers with active LCA filings
Use Migrate Mate to filter People Operations Manager openings by employers who have certified Labor Condition Applications for HR titles. This confirms the employer has already navigated DOL prevailing wage requirements for the role.
Confirm prevailing wage before the offer stage
Run your target job title and location through the OFLC Wage Search before you negotiate. DOL sets four wage levels for HR Managers, and your offer must meet at least Level I or your employer's LCA will be rejected.
Ask whether the employer uses a staffing or PEO model
H-1B sponsorship for People Operations roles gets complicated when a professional employer organization is the legal employer of record. USCIS requires the petitioning entity to control your day-to-day work, so clarify this before accepting an offer.
Document systems expertise in your petition materials
USCIS RFEs on People Operations petitions often challenge whether the role genuinely requires a specialized degree. Your resume and support letter should tie your HRIS, benefits administration, or workforce planning work directly to your degree field.
File premium processing if your start date is firm
USCIS standard processing for I-129 petitions can run several months. If your employer sets a definite start date, premium processing upgrades USCIS adjudication to 15 business days and protects you against delays that would void your offer.
H-1B Visa People Operations Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a People Operations Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, but the petition needs to be built carefully. USCIS requires that the role normally requires a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as human resources, organizational psychology, or business administration. Generic management duties can trigger an RFE, so the job description and support letter must tie each core responsibility directly to a specialized body of knowledge.
Which types of employers sponsor H-1B visas for People Operations Manager positions?
Technology companies, healthcare systems, financial services firms, and large professional services organizations are the most consistent H-1B sponsors for People Operations roles. These employers typically have in-house immigration counsel and established HR compliance infrastructure. You can browse verified H-1B sponsoring employers hiring for this title on Migrate Mate, filtered by LCA filing history.
How does the H-1B prevailing wage requirement affect People Operations Manager offers?
DOL requires your employer to pay at least the prevailing wage for HR Managers in your specific metro area, as determined by the OFLC Wage Search. The wage level assigned to your role, from Level I for entry-level to Level IV for senior positions, directly shapes your minimum offer. Employers who underpay relative to your actual seniority risk DOL audits and LCA decertification.
Can a People Operations Manager transfer their H-1B to a new employer mid-status?
Yes. Under H-1B portability rules, you can start working for a new employer as soon as the new I-129 petition is filed with USCIS, as long as your previous H-1B was approved and you've maintained lawful status. The new employer must file a new LCA with DOL and a new I-129 petition before or on your start date. You don't need to wait for approval to begin work.
What makes a People Operations Manager petition more likely to receive an RFE?
USCIS issues RFEs on these petitions most often when the job description includes duties that don't require a specific degree, such as general administrative oversight or employee relations tasks that a non-specialist could perform. Employers can reduce RFE risk by drafting job descriptions that emphasize HR technology implementation, compliance program management, or workforce analytics, and by tying each duty to a relevant academic discipline.
