DESCRIPTION
AWS Global Services includes experts from across AWS who help our customers design, build, operate, and secure their cloud environments. Customers innovate with AWS Professional Services, upskill with AWS Training and Certification, optimize with AWS Support and Managed Services, and meet objectives with AWS Security Assurance Services. Our expertise and emerging technologies include AWS Partners, AWS Sovereign Cloud, AWS International Product, and the Generative AI Innovation Center. You’ll join a diverse team of technical experts in dozens of countries who help customers achieve more with the AWS cloud.
Would you like to join one of the fastest-growing organizations within Amazon Web Services (AWS) and help customers of all industries and sizes including Automotive, Financial Services, Energy, Big Data, and more gain the best value and service from AWS? At AWS Enterprise Support we’re looking for a Technical Account Manager (TAM) to support our customers’ creative and transformative spirit of innovation across all technologies, including Compute, Storage, Database, Big Data, Application-level services, Networking, Serverless and more. This is not a sales role, but rather an opportunity to be the principal technical advisor and ‘voice of the customer’ to organizations ranging from start-ups to Fortune 500 enterprises.
The TAM role is not directly hands on keyboard within the customer’s environment for troubleshooting customer support issues, rather you will work with appropriate engineers and service teams to see issues through to resolution. More importantly you will work proactively to help craft and execute strategies to drive our customers' adoption and use of AWS services, including EC2, S3, DynamoDB & RDS databases, Lambda, CloudFront CDN, IoT, and many more.
Your technical acumen and customer-facing skills will enable you to effectively represent AWS within a customer’s environment, and drive discussions with senior leadership regarding incidents, trade-offs, support and risk management.
You will provide advocacy and strategic technical guidance to help plan and build solutions using best practices, and proactively keep your customers’ AWS environments operationally healthy and resilient. The close relationships developed with your customers will allow you to understand their business/operational needs and technical challenges, and help them achieve the greatest value from AWS. This position will require the ability to travel 10% or more as needed.
The TAM is the centerpiece of value to our Enterprise Support customers. If you wish to be at the forefront of innovation, come join us!

Technical Account Manager Jobs in California: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a technical account manager in California?
Most technical account manager roles in California require a bachelor's degree in a technical discipline such as computer science, engineering, or information technology, combined with hands-on experience in a customer-facing technical role. California has no state-issued license for this position, so employers weight practical experience and product knowledge heavily. Starting in roles like technical support engineer, solutions consultant, or customer success manager at a California software or cloud company is the most common path into the position.
How much do technical account managers make in California?
Technical account managers in California earn a median of about $139,160 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $78,850 for the lowest 10% to over $213,370 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire technical account managers in California?
Employers hiring technical account managers in California right now include Google, Yardi Systems, and Varonis Systems, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of August 2026. California's concentration of enterprise software, cloud, and cybersecurity headquarters means hiring activity is especially consistent in the Bay Area and greater Los Angeles corridors.
Which California cities have the most technical account manager jobs?
San Francisco, San Jose, and Fremont have the most technical account manager openings in California. The Bay Area's density of enterprise software and cloud infrastructure companies drives the largest share of postings, while Los Angeles reflects demand from media technology and e-commerce platforms, and San Diego draws openings from cybersecurity and defense-adjacent technology firms headquartered there.
Are there remote technical account manager jobs in California?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 61% of technical account manager openings tied to California are remote or hybrid as of August 2026, reflecting how much of the role centers on digital communication, cloud platform access, and virtual meetings rather than on-site presence. Strategic account reviews and onboarding sessions are the parts most likely to require in-person attendance at a California office.
How can I get hired as a technical account manager in California with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is moving from a technical support or customer success associate role at a California-based SaaS or cloud company, where you build product knowledge and client communication skills before stepping into account ownership. Large California employers such as Salesforce, Cisco, and ServiceNow run structured associate customer success and technical graduate programs that accept candidates without prior account management experience. Building proficiency with a major cloud platform and earning an associated certification gives candidates a measurable edge in California's competitive hiring market.
Where can I find and apply to technical account manager jobs in California?
You can find and apply to technical account manager jobs in California on Migrate Mate, which lists current California openings from employers actively hiring for the role. Find the roles that fit your experience and specialty, then apply directly to each one.
