Full Job Description

About the Team & Role
As the Senior Manager for Technical Account Management (TAM), you will lead and transform our global TAM organization into a strategic value-driver for our enterprise customers. You will oversee the execution of our Tiered TAM Service Model, ensuring that TAMs act as trusted technical advisors who quantify platform ROI, partner with sales on renewals and expansion, and drive long-term business outcomes.

While maintaining a baseline of operational excellence and system health, your primary mandate will be shifting the team from reactive operational support ("How do I fix this?") to forward-looking strategic engagement ("Why and how should we grow with this?"). You will lead a unified team, manage onshore/offshore delivery models, and establish high-touch executive governance across our most critical strategic accounts.

  • Serve as an executive escalation point for major incidents, ensuring structured communication, root cause analysis, and post-incident follow-ups

  • Partner with Product and Engineering to ensure customer product roadmaps align with operational reliability and feature requests.

Team Development & Process Standardization

  • Define and standardize engagement playbooks, onboarding toolkits, and proactive health review structures across the global team.
