The Opportunity

"The Technical Success Manager serves as the dedicated technical steward and trusted advisor for a portfolio of high-value enterprise clients. This is a hybrid role combing the deep, account-specific focus of a Technical Account Manager with the adoption-driven, outcome-oriented approach of a TSM. The primary objectives are to minimize technical friction, ensure platform stability, drive technical adoption, and deliver measurable business value across the full client lifecycle. Depending on account complexity and engagement model, this role may manage a focused portfolio of 1–4 accounts at a deep level or support a broader book of business of 10–20+ accounts by stepping in for specific technical needs.” – VP, Customer Success

What You’ll Contribute

• Incident Oversight & Escalation: Serves as the high-touch escalation point for support tickets, providing hands-on incident oversight and coordinating rapid resolution across internal teams to minimize client impact and ensure operational continuity.

• Proactive Platform Health: Conducts regular health checks and performance audits to proactively identify risks, optimize system performance, and ensure the client's environment remains stable and reliable.

• Technical Adoption & Solution Optimization: Partners with customers to configure and tailor the platform to solve specific business problems, identifies and removes technical barriers preventing full feature utilization, and drives deeper platform engagement to accelerate value realization.

• Change Management Governance: Provides customer-specific change management guidance for upgrades, migrations, and integrations, ensuring minimal disruption and risk mitigation without directly executing changes.

• Roadmap Alignment & Expansion: Develops a thorough understanding of each client's technical architecture and aligns it with the product roadmap to inform strategic planning, while partnering with Customer Success Managers to demonstrate the technical feasibility of new use cases and expansion opportunities.

• Trusted Technical Advisor: Educates customers on best practices and provides strategic "how-to" guidance that goes beyond standard support, building long-term trust and positioning the team as an extension of the client's own technical organization.

What We’re Seeking

• Strong expertise in a technical customer-facing role such as Technical Account Management, Solutions Engineering, Technical Support, or Customer Success, preferably within a SaaS or enterprise software environment.

• Technical Proficiency: Strong working knowledge of enterprise software platforms, cloud-based architectures, APIs, and integrations. Ability to understand and communicate complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences.

• Incident Management: Demonstrated experience managing technical escalations, coordinating cross-functional teams under pressure, and driving issues to resolution in a timely and organized manner.

• Customer Relationship Management: Proven ability to build and maintain trusted advisor relationships with senior technical stakeholders and executive sponsors within enterprise accounts.

• Analytical & Problem-Solving Skills: Strong diagnostic and analytical skills with the ability to identify root causes, assess risk, and develop actionable solutions in dynamic environments.

• Communication & Presentation: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to deliver clear, concise updates, business reviews, and technical recommendations to diverse audiences.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Comfortable working across Customer Success, Support, Engineering, and Professional Services teams to advocate for the client and drive outcomes.

• Project & Change Management: Familiarity with change management principles and the ability to guide clients through complex technical transitions such as upgrades, migrations, and new integrations.

• Growth Mindset: A proactive, self-motivated approach with a passion for continuous learning, staying current on product developments, and evolving alongside the role as it grows strategically.
