Technical Account Manager

About The Role

At ThousandEyes, we operate a little bit differently than most software-as-a-service providers : We’ve recognized that delivery of amazing customer experience is key to driving longer term value and creating customers for life. We hire industry veterans - people with tried and true experience in the area of network-based service delivery.

The TAM role is a proactive technical support role for premium support accounts : you’ll be responsible for supporting a select number of named accounts, aligned to the customers business hours, and not working on a rotational shift. The TAM will work closely with the 24x7 support team to ensure the total team can support a customer on a follow-the-sun model. The TAM provides select account premium support for those that purchase the TAM service, and the key value includes providing customers with a named support engineer who understands the customers team and network. TAMs work on customer problems, help optimize customer networks, provide training, and also work joint proactive projects.

This is not a sales role. We are seeking candidates with a strong technical background and experience in customer success, technical account management, or related advisory roles. Applicants with primarily sales-focused experience will not be considered.
