You’re not a traditional CSM, Technical Account Manager or Partner Manager. You operate at the intersection of three competencies, and you’re genuinely strong across all three
1. Expert technical consulting — you run demos, guide architecture discussions, troubleshoot integrations, and help partners deploy AI-driven solutions. No coding required, but you’re fluent in APIs, developer workflows, and real technical conversations
2. Strategic partner management — you build trust from individual developers up to CTOs, own the full partner lifecycle, and turn technical adoption into channel growth across multi-party commercial relationships
3. AI-native operating model — AI is how you work, not a tool you occasionally reach for. When you hit recurring work, your instinct is to build the system that removes it
You may have been a Partner Manager, Channel Manager, Technical Account Manager, Solutions or Sales Engineer, Implementation Engineer, strategic CSM, or Support Engineer. Whatever your path, you’re probably strongest in one or two of these competencies — but you can demonstrate all three, and you’re eager for a role where you deploy them concurrently
You thrive on bringing definition to ambiguity. You form a point of view and bring a recommendation rather than staying in open-ended discovery mode. You’re comfortable operating outside your comfort zone, you question the status quo, and you learn fast
Significant experience in technical, customer-facing roles — TAM, sales/solutions engineering, partner or enterprise CS with a strong technical focus, implementation, or support — at API-driven, developer-first, or AI companies. For most people that’s roughly 7+ years, but we care more about the shape of your experience than the exact number
A track record that blends partner or customer ownership with technical depth: solution design, hands-on troubleshooting, and commercial growth
Hands-on experience running demos, POCs, or technical workshops with enterprise partners or customers — leading them, not just attending
Demonstrated success identifying and landing expansion in complex enterprise or partner accounts
Fluency discussing APIs, integrations, and developer workflows, and troubleshooting L1-style issues (no coding required, but genuinely conversant — not hand-waving)
A strong understanding of partner ecosystems and channel business models — resale, referral, integrations, co-marketing, co-selling — and multi-party commercial dynamics
Experience engaging both technical stakeholders (developers, architects) and executive buyers (CIO, CTO, VP Engineering)
Exceptional communication, influence, and relationship-building — concise and structured, across technical and business audiences
Something you’ve built — a tool, agent, script, or workflow — that permanently eliminated recurring work. In your application, tell us what it was, what it replaced, and what it’s still doing today
An AI-native operating model: specific workflows that structurally depend on AI, and a clear account of how you’d rebuild them if those tools disappeared tomorrow
Experience in machine learning, voice AI, cloud infrastructure, or developer-first technologies
Telephony / CCaaS / CPaaS background (e.g., Twilio, Genesys) — maps directly to our partner ecosystem
A background spanning solutions engineering, TAM, or L1 support alongside CS or partner responsibilities
Familiarity with channel/partner marketing, enablement programs, or technical enablement asset creation
Working fluency with automation, scripting, or agent-building (Python, TypeScript, workflow tools, agent frameworks, or equivalent). You don’t need to be a software engineer — just dangerous enough to ship working systems
