Sr. Mgr, Technical Marketing Engineering
Morrisville, North Carolina, United StatesJob Summary
Are you ready to build and lead NetApp's technical marketing presence? As Senior Manager, Technical Marketing Engineering, you will help build NetApp's center of excellence for technical marketing as part of a leadership team taking on an early-stage team and rapidly growing both its size and its impact.
You will be both a team builder and have the hands-on technical credibility to inspire, measure, and improve the capabilities of world-class Technical Marketing Engineers (TMEs). NetApp TMEs own technical marketing end-to-end for one or more assigned technology areas: defining the technical narrative, value proposition, claims, and competitive story for integrated solutions that solve customer challenges using NetApp products and, where relevant, partner products. As a team leader, you will set the technical and quality bar for the team, and hire new talent that the team needs as it scales.
You will do this working side-by-side with Product Marketers as part of the Integrated Product & Platform Marketing (IPPM) organization's Technical Evangelism & Marketing (TEM) function, and in partnership with Product Management and Engineering teams worldwide. As the senior TME leader based in RTP, you will be the primary point of local leadership and escalation for Product Management and Engineering partners, and you will partner closely with peer TME leaders across the world to keep one consistent technical narrative and operating model across every region, while fully owning the TME charter for your assigned subset of products and solutions.
If you're excited by the challenge of building a world-class technical marketing team, staying hands-on with the technology to lead from the front, and shaping how NetApp shows up technically worldwide, we want to talk to you.
Key Responsibilities
- Build and lead your assigned TME team: hire, onboard, and develop talent, scaling from today's strong team toward a full regional center of excellence.
- Serve as the senior in-region point of contact for RTP-based Product Management and Engineering partners, providing local leadership and time-zone coverage for both your covered products, and in partnership with your peer TME leaders for other products and solutions. Will be required to work in-person in the local NetApp RTP office a majority of the time.
- Own technical marketing end-to-end for multiple assigned technology areas. Own the team that defines the technical narrative, claims, proof of value, and competitive story for integrated solutions, integrated into the overall narrative set by Product Marketing.
- Collaborate with Product Management and Engineering across the product lifecycle to build — and ensure your team builds — expert-level understanding of assigned products and solutions, their place in the NetApp portfolio, and how they solve customer challenges.
- Direct, and personally contribute to, your team's production of consistent, high-quality technical content and enablement: technical reports, whitepapers, reference architectures, blogs, videos, technical talk tracks, demos, and other advanced technical enablement.
- Oversee your team's self-service interactive assets, including demos, sandboxes, and TCO/ROI calculators, built with the latest AI-enabled demo-creation tools and instrumented to capture usage and customer intelligence.
- Ensure your team is visible as trusted technical subject-matter experts, evangelizing NetApp and assigned technologies at conferences, in webinars, on video, and on social media with clear, compelling technical storytelling.
- Synthesize input from customers, field teams, and sales gathered through your team's work as technical SMEs, and channel it to Product Management to inform the roadmap.
- Partner with peer TME leaders across the Americas and EMEA, and with the broader IPPM Technical Evangelism & Marketing (TEM) function, to keep one consistent technical narrative, one content standard, and one operating model across every region.
- Establish and track key performance indicators for your team's coverage and output and drive continuous improvement of deliverables based on data and field feedback.
- Recruit, coach, and retain top technical marketing talent.
- Champion an inclusive, collaborative team culture, and model the ownership and agility NetApp expects of its technical marketing organization as your team's scope and headcount scale quickly.
Job Requirements
- 10+ years of experience in technical marketing or related roles that span technology and marketing, including several years in a people-management or team-lead capacity.
- Proven track record building, scaling, and leading a high-performing technical team from the ground up, including hiring, developing, and managing talent.
- Demonstrated expert-level understanding in one or more enterprise technology areas, as a proof point of the ability to attain — and coach others toward — expert-level understanding of additional technology areas. Existing expertise in NetApp technologies or the data infrastructure market is highly desired but not required.
- Demonstrated ability to craft, and to coach others to craft, technical narratives, value proof, and competitive positioning for integrated solutions.
- Excellent technical writing, communication, and storytelling skills, with a track record of setting and holding a quality bar across a team's content and enablement output.
- Proven experience building and managing demos and showcase environments at scale, including demo catalogs, sandboxes, and self-service experiences; familiarity with modern AI-enabled demo-creation tools is highly desired.
- Strong business acumen and comfort operating as a hands-on player-coach, capable of deep technical knowledge, but passionate about delegating and teaching to develop the same skills in your team.
- Strong cross-functional and cross-regional collaboration skills within a globally distributed team and partner effectively with Product Management, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing leaders across time zones.
- Confident as a public speaker and on-camera presenter, with experience coaching others to present confidently to technical and executive audiences.
- Facility with competitive/alternatives analysis and building data-backed, testable claims.
Education
- Bachelor's degree in computer science, engineering, information systems, or a related technical field (or equivalent practical experience).
- Master's degree or MBA is a plus.

Tips for Your Lead Technical Account Manager Job Search
Quantify your technical outcomes on your resume
Lead TAM resumes that land interviews show measurable impact, like reduced escalation rates, improved time-to-value for enterprise accounts, or increased product adoption. Replace vague bullets about 'supporting customers' with specific outcomes tied to your technical interventions.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists lead technical account manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Tailor your resume to the product stack
Lead TAM postings frequently specify cloud platforms, API tooling, or monitoring software like Kubernetes or Datadog. Mirror the exact tool names from each job description in your resume so your application clears automated screening before a recruiter reads it.
Target companies at a specific growth stage
Your fit changes dramatically between a Series B startup and a mature enterprise vendor. Startups want lead TAMs who can build programs from scratch, while larger companies want someone to scale existing playbooks. Identify which environment matches your experience before applying.
Prepare a technical walkthrough for your portfolio
Many lead TAM interviews include a whiteboard or slide exercise where you walk through how you would onboard a complex enterprise account or troubleshoot an integration failure. Practice narrating your decision-making process, not just the solution itself.
Negotiate scope alongside compensation
Lead TAM offers often come with ambiguity around account portfolio size, escalation authority, and cross-functional influence. Before accepting, clarify how many accounts you own, what your escalation path looks like, and whether you have direct influence over product feedback cycles.
Lead Technical Account Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most lead technical account managers?
The companies hiring the most lead technical account managers right now include Amazon, Affirm, and Autodesk, with the largest share of openings in Washington, Texas, and California, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Enterprise software vendors and cloud infrastructure providers consistently make up the largest share of open roles.
How many lead technical account manager jobs are remote?
About 64% of lead technical account manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting strong demand for distributed enterprise support. Sub-specializations focused on cloud platform management and API-based integrations tend to have the highest concentration of remote-eligible roles, while positions requiring on-site executive relationship management lean more heavily toward hybrid arrangements.
How do you become a lead technical account manager?
Start in a customer-facing technical role such as solutions engineer, support engineer, or associate technical account manager to build both product knowledge and enterprise communication skills. Progress by owning increasingly complex accounts, earning relevant cloud or platform certifications, and demonstrating that you can drive adoption metrics independently. Most lead-level roles require that you have already managed a portfolio of strategic accounts without close oversight.
Can you get a lead technical account manager role with limited experience?
Moving into a lead TAM role with limited experience is possible if you have deep technical expertise in a product category the employer prioritizes, such as cloud infrastructure or cybersecurity. Building a portfolio of technical documentation, escalation case studies, or integration guides you have authored demonstrates readiness even when your title history does not. Targeting smaller companies or startups where the role is newly created also lowers the experience bar compared to established enterprise vendors.
What does the lead technical account manager interview process look like?
The process typically moves through an initial recruiter screen, a hiring manager conversation focused on account management philosophy and technical depth, and then a panel round involving product, engineering, or sales stakeholders. Most companies include a practical exercise where you present a mock account health review or walk through how you would handle a critical customer escalation. Final rounds often include a conversation with a senior leader to assess executive presence and strategic thinking.
Where can I find and apply to lead technical account manager jobs?
You can find and apply to lead technical account manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Search the listings to find roles that match your experience and technical background, then apply directly to each one that fits.
