Job Description:
As a Platform Technical Account Manager at Integral Ad Science, you own the post-sales technical relationship for key clients. Your primary objectives are to drive efficiency and business value by helping clients fully leverage IAS's solutions, analyze customer workflows, identify opportunities for process improvement, and serve as a trusted advisor on best practices in digital media and ad tech environments.
Note: The responsibilities below reflect the core of this role today, but this is a fluid position, priorities, ownership areas, and day-to-day focus will shift as client needs and internal processes evolve. We're looking for someone comfortable operating in grey areas, without a fully defined playbook, and who can adapt accordingly.
Key Responsibilities
-
Technical Advocacy & Service SLA Management:
Serve as the main technical point of contact for key clients, delivering guidance on adopting and optimizing IAS' product offerings. Monitor and manage partner-specific technical support operations for IAS products and integrations to contractually defined Service Level Agreements (SLAs) and response/resolution metrics. Review and interpret client contracts to understand defined SLAs, obligations, and risk areas, and apply that understanding to prioritize work, escalate appropriately, and guide client-facing decisions.
-
Workflow Automation:
Audit internal processes to identify areas for automation, recommending and implementing AI-driven solutions to streamline day-to-day work.
-
Proactive Support:
Monitor client health and key metrics with insights; flag anomalies, preempt issues, and ensure clients are positioned for success.
-
Enablement & Training:
Deliver training sessions and supporting materials to upskill client teams on new AI-driven features and integrations.
-
Continuous Improvement & Feedback Loop:
Gather and relay client feedback to Product and Engineering, advocating for new automation capabilities and smarter workflows.
-
Cross-Functional Collaboration:
Partner closely with internal stakeholders across Business Development, Solutions Engineering, Product, Engineering, and Operations to support account growth, align on feature roadmaps, and resolve complex technical escalations seamlessly. Be able to work in non-defined roles and responsibilities to deliver results.
-
Client Travel:
Occasional travel to client sites may be required to build relationships, deliver trainings, or conduct strategic technical reviews.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- 5+ years as a TAM, platform support, or technical client success role (preferably in ad tech or SaaS).
- Experience working directly at or with major social platforms (e.g., Meta, TikTok, YouTube) and managing ongoing technical operations.
- Strong understanding of AI/automation in digital media; hands-on experience using or implementing AI tools.
- Excellent analytical, troubleshooting, and client communication skills, with a proven track record of managing and meeting strict contractual client SLAs.
- Ability to translate business challenges into technical solutions, effectively collaborating across departments (Product, Engineering, Sales, BD) to achieve client objectives.
- Comfort operating in a fluid, evolving role with undefined or shifting responsibilities; adaptability is essential.
- BA/BS required.
Success Measures
- Client Satisfaction and Retention: High client satisfaction scores and strong retention and growth of client business.
- Operational Efficiency and AI-Implementation: Measurable time savings and workflow improvements achieved for client support operations through implementation of AI tools.
- Business Acumen in Practice: Demonstrated ability to apply contract and SLA knowledge to day-to-day prioritization, escalation, and client management decisions.
- Critical Thinking & Navigating Ambiguity: Proven ability to operate in complex, undefined situations — applying critical thinking, building structure without formal guidance, and making sound decisions with incomplete information.

Tips for Your Technical Manager Job Search
Quantify your team and delivery outcomes
Technical managers get passed over when their resume reads like an engineer's. Hiring panels want team size, budget authority, and delivery metrics. Replace task descriptions with outcomes: how many engineers you led, what shipped, and what improved.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists technical manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Filter by product stage, not just industry
A technical manager role at a seed-stage startup differs fundamentally from the same title at a public company. Target openings that match the stage you've operated in, since interviewers will probe your comfort with ambiguity, process maturity, and headcount decisions accordingly.
Prepare a leadership failure story for interviews
Behavioral rounds for technical managers almost always include a question about a project that missed the mark or a team conflict you handled poorly. Prepare one honest, specific example with a clear lesson. Vague or blameless answers hurt more than they help.
Translate your technical depth without over-explaining
Non-technical hiring managers on a panel need to trust your credibility without following every detail. Practice framing your technical decisions in terms of tradeoffs, risk, and business impact rather than implementation specifics. Both audiences need to walk away confident.
Negotiate scope, not just compensation
When you receive an offer, clarify what the role actually owns: headcount authority, budget sign-off, and whether the roadmap is shared or assigned. Mismatches in actual scope cause more early exits than pay, so surface these before you accept.
Technical Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most technical managers?
The companies hiring the most technical managers right now include Amazon, Google, and JPMorganChase, with the largest share of openings in California, Texas, and Washington, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is especially concentrated in technology, healthcare IT, and financial services.
How many technical manager jobs are remote?
About 73% of technical manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, making it one of the more flexible leadership roles in the market. Engineering management and infrastructure-focused roles tend to have the highest remote availability, while manufacturing and hardware-adjacent positions are more likely to require on-site presence.
How do you become a technical manager?
Most technical managers move into the role from a senior individual contributor position, typically after demonstrating informal leadership on projects or mentoring junior engineers. Building credibility means owning a cross-team initiative end-to-end, volunteering to run retrospectives or planning cycles, and developing your ability to give performance feedback. Some organizations offer internal rotations into engineering leads roles, which are the most direct path.
Can you get a technical manager job with limited management experience?
Yes, but you need to reframe the experience you do have. Hiring managers at smaller companies or startups routinely consider candidates whose management came through leading a project team, onboarding contractors, or acting as an informal team lead without the title. Highlight any situation where you set direction for others, resolved a team conflict, or coordinated delivery across functions, and be explicit about what you learned from it.
What does the technical manager interview process look like?
Most technical manager interview processes include an initial recruiter screen, a hiring manager conversation focused on leadership philosophy and past team situations, a technical round or system design discussion to validate your engineering credibility, and a behavioral panel with cross-functional partners. Some companies add a take-home case involving a resourcing or prioritization decision. Final rounds often include a conversation with a director or VP about strategic fit and vision for the team.
Where can I find and apply to technical manager jobs?
You can find and apply to technical manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States. Find roles that match your background and apply directly to each listing.
