The Technical Partner Management (TPM) team owns the end-to-end technical health, expansion, and evolution of Yext’s Publisher Network.
As a Technical Partner Manager (TPM), you will operate at the intersection of Product, Engineering, Publisher Partnerships, and Operations to design, implement, and maintain high-impact publisher integrations across Yext’s Listings ecosystem. TPMs combine systems thinking, integration architecture, technical investigation, and execution leadership to ensure publisher integrations are scalable, reliable, and continuously improving.
This is a highly technical, cross-functional role that blends integration ownership, operational rigor, and structured solution design. TPMs are trusted technical leads for the Publisher Network and play a critical role in reducing Engineering overhead while increasing integration quality and velocity.
What You’ll DoOwn End-to-End Publisher Integrations- Lead technical discovery for new and existing publisher integrations by analyzing API documentation, changelogs, and system behavior
- Define detailed functional and technical requirements for integrations, new fields, and feature expansions
- Partner directly with Engineering to drive implementation from specification through QA and release
- Validate edge cases and ensure integrations meet expected behavior and performance standards prior to launch
- Continuously evolve integrations as publisher capabilities and Yext products expand
- Define, monitor, and continuously improve KPIs for integration health
- Build and maintain monitoring using SQL, Snowflake, Python, and observability tools (e.g., dashboards, alerting systems)
- Proactively identify systemic issues and implement scalable solutions rather than one-off fixes
- Investigate complex production issues across databases, APIs, and integration layers
- Determine whether issues originate on the Yext or publisher side and coordinate resolution paths accordingly
- Leverage modern development and AI-assisted tools to analyze system behavior and trace integration issues
- Identify configuration, logic, or workflow gaps contributing to defects
- Propose and collaborate on code-level or architectural improvements with Engineering
- Submit well-scoped change requests when appropriate and partner closely with Engineering through resolution
While TPMs are not Software Engineers, they operate with a strong understanding of system architecture and code behavior.
Improve & Expand the Publisher Network- Drive delivery of new fields, features, and capabilities to existing integrations
- Partner with strategic publishers (e.g., Tier 1 platforms) to beta test and adopt new functionality
- Identify product gaps and advocate for scalable solutions that improve customer outcomes
- Contribute to automation initiatives that reduce manual operational work across Yext
- Act as the technical liaison between Engineering, Product, Publisher Partnerships, Support, and Publisher contacts
- Translate complex technical issues into clear business impact for non-technical stakeholders
- Escalate systemic risks appropriately and influence prioritization when integration health is at risk
- Support high-impact strategic client escalations involving Tier 1 publishers when needed
TPM is not a traditional support function. It is a technical ownership role responsible for the architecture, reliability, and evolution of Yext’s publisher ecosystem.
TPMs reduce Product and Engineering load by:
- Conducting integration R&D
- Defining requirements with precision
- Filtering and resolving false escalations
- Building monitoring and automation systems
- Driving scalable improvements
This role requires comfort operating in ambiguity, making technical recommendations independently, and influencing cross-functional outcomes without formal authority.
What You Have- BA/BS in Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field (or equivalent technical depth through experience)
- Strong systems thinking and ability to reason through APIs, data flows, and integration architectures
- Experience working with APIs and reading technical documentation
- Proficiency with SQL and data analysis (Snowflake or similar data warehouses)
- Experience writing scripts in Python (or similar language) to automate workflows or analyze data
- Strong technical debugging and root cause analysis skills
- Ability to write structured functional and technical documentation
- Excellent communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences
- High ownership mentality and ability to operate independently in ambiguous environments
- Publisher integrations launch on time with minimal post-release defects
- Integration health metrics trend positively over time
- Systemic issues are solved at scale rather than via one-off fixes
- Engineering load related to publisher integrations is reduced through TPM ownership
- Strategic publisher relationships result in expanded capabilities and improved customer outcomes
