Job Description

What is a Technical Account Manager?

It’s a hybrid between project manager and account manager. There’s no selling involved, but you will be ultimately responsible for the success of engagements with assigned clients.

Think of it like an air traffic controller of sorts – coordinating internal (Iceberg) resources to get s#!t done for your clients. That means leading complex, cross-functional projects from start to finish.

TAMs are responsible for the entire project management cycle: discovery, scoping, building, testing, deploying, documenting. That means you don’t do the technical work. Instead, you’ll manage the process and keep the proverbial ball moving at all times.

The ideal candidate is…

• Biased to action: You don’t wait around for someone to tell you what to do next. You drive projects forward.

• Organized: You like making lists. Your calendar is always up to date. Time management comes naturally to you.

• Comfortable with ambiguity: You’ve worked in startups or early-stage companies before and can work without clear instructions.

• Detail oriented: You notice things that other people miss. You like things to be just right.

Job Duties

• Simultaneously manage multiple client relationships.

• Communicate the status of projects and tasks with your clients through written updates and live meetings.

• Develop detailed project plans that include a clear scope, goals, deliverables, and timelines.

• Regularly communicate project status, risks, and issues to stakeholders at all levels.

• Foster a culture of continuous improvement by identifying process enhancements.
