Technical Account Manager

The Technical Account Manager (TAM) is a trusted technical advisor and primary account contact for key Dynatrace customers, accountable for platform success, adoption, and long-term value in complex, large-scale environments. This is a senior, enterprise-focused role that combines technical depth, business understanding, and account management. The TAM owns the overall technical relationship and is the single point of accountability between the customer and Dynatrace.

The TAM is the named owner of a defined set of Success deliverables, including platform health reviews, support case management, change window coverage, version lifecycle planning, and enhancement request advocacy, scaled to the customer’s support tier. The role is not support-centric or project-limited. It requires strong technical judgment, executive presence, and ownership across long-running engagements, and it operates at the highest tier of the Dynatrace Success offering.
