As XDS scales its North American presence, after-sales service excellence will be a critical differentiator. We are seeking an After Sales Service Manager to join us in our Santa Monica office. This role owns the end-to-end post-purchase experience: from dealer support and warranty operations to repair center management and technical training, ensuring every customer interaction reinforces trust in the X-LAB brand. You’ll work directly with company leadership and China HQ to build scalable service infrastructure, develop dealer support programs, and create a best-in-class after-sales operation from the ground up.

What You’ll Do

1. After-Sales Operations & Service Infrastructure

• Design and launch the North American after-sales service framework, including warranty processing, repair workflows, parts logistics, and service-level standards

• Stand up and manage relationships with authorized repair centers and service partners across the U.S. and Canada

• Build and maintain a dealer management platform with standardized KPIs, policies, and escalation protocols to drive operational efficiency

• Develop tiered support processes that reduce escalations and improve first-contact resolution rates

2. Technical Support & Training

• Lead technical support operations for dealers and enterprise accounts, ensuring rapid issue resolution and high customer satisfaction

• Create and deliver training programs for dealer technicians, field application engineers (FAEs), and internal support staff on XDS products, diagnostics, and repair procedures

• Serve as the primary technical liaison between North American dealers and XDS’s R&D and manufacturing teams in China

• Collect and synthesize field feedback to inform product improvements, quality initiatives, and new product development

3. Key Account & Dealer Management

• Own the post-sales relationship with XDS’s North American key accounts (retail chains, specialty dealers, enterprise and fleet customers)

• Coordinate cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, and Product teams to align service delivery with go-to-market strategy

• Monitor dealer performance, conduct regular business reviews, and implement programs to improve dealer retention and satisfaction

• Lead go-to-market rollouts for service products (e.g., extended warranty, maintenance plans) in coordination with marketing and sales teams

4. Cross-Border Coordination & Reporting

• Act as the bridge between U.S. after-sales operations and China HQ on quality, warranty claims, parts supply, and product feedback

• Establish reporting cadences and dashboards to track service KPIs (response time, resolution rate, NPS, warranty cost) for leadership visibility

• Support localization of service documentation, SOPs, and training materials for the North American market

You’re a Great Fit With:

• 5+ years of experience in after-sales service, technical support, or dealer/channel operations, ideally in consumer electronics, mobility, or hardware/technology companies

• Experience designing and delivering technical training programs for partners, dealers, or field teams

• Excellent cross-functional collaboration skills; ability to work effectively with Sales, R&D, Marketing, and Manufacturing

• Strong organizational and project management skills; comfortable operating independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment

• Outstanding communication skills in English (written and verbal)

You’re a Spectacular Fit With:

• Experience in the cycling, micromobility, drone, automotive, or consumer hardware industry

• Exposure to U.S.-Asia (especially China) cross-border operations and supply chains
