Technical Account Manager – Global / US accounts

Role Summary

The Technical Account Manager owns the technical relationship with Razorpay's most strategic global customers. You are accountable for both reactive excellence—owning high-priority incidents and escalations through to resolution—and proactive account health—identifying risks before they become incidents, driving remediation plans, and serving as the customer's trusted technical advisor.

This is not an escalation coordinator or ticket manager role. This is the technical owner of enterprise customer outcomes.

What You Will Own

Reactive Ownership

• Own incidents end-to-end — coordinate Engineering, SRA, Product, Risk, Operations; establish ownership, timelines, next steps, and customer communication; drive through resolution, RCA, and preventive actions
• Meet contractual SLAs and internal commitments without exception — elevate early based on business impact, not SLA proximity
• Communicate complex technical incidents to customer engineering teams and C-level stakeholders during live outages with clarity and composure
• Ensure no critical issue is lost between teams — you are the single point of technical accountability

Proactive Account Health

• Build and maintain a technical account plan for every assigned customer — understand their payment architecture, integrations, transaction flows, critical business journeys, and technical dependencies
• Monitor account health continuously — analyze ticket trends, API error patterns, recurring issues, integration failures, reliability signals, and operational anomalies to identify risks before they escalte
• Drive technical health reviews — present findings, remediation plans, owners, and deadlines; partner with CSM/Account teams to incorporate technical health into QBRs and account strategy
• Prepare customers for launches, peak traffic events, migrations, and major releases — conduct readiness assessments and proactive capacity planning
• Reduce repeat incidents over time — your success is measured by fewer avoidable escalations, not higher ticket volume

Technical Depth

• Troubleshoot API integrations — webhook delivery failures, authentication issues, payment lifecycle anomalies, duplicate-event handling, idempotency violations, latency spikes, refund/settlement discrepancies, and dispute workflows
• Interpret logs, trace transaction states — diagnose integration architecture issues, and guide customers through production vs. test environment differences
• Translate technical root causes into executive-level business impact and remediation plans

What You Bring

Experience

• 3–5+ years in Enterprise Technical Account Management, Technical Customer Success, Enterprise Support, Solutions Architecture, Customer Engineering, or similar customer‑facing technical roles
• Enterprise/global customer experience required — fintech/payments experience strongly preferred but not mandatory if you bring excellent API/SaaS experience
• Track record of managing P1/P2 incidents at scale and driving cross-functional escalations in high‑pressure environments
• Strong API/integration understanding — REST APIs, webhooks, asynchronous event processing, error handling, integration patterns, and production reliability concepts

Capabilities

• Executive communication — written and verbal English at a level suitable for C‑level stakeholders during live incidents
• Strong RCA and structured problem‑solving capabilities
• Cross‑functional influence without authority — comfortable challenging Engineering, Product, or SRE constructively when customer outcomes are at risk
• Ability to operate effectively across US and India time zones — comfort with ambiguity and competing priorities
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Technology, or equivalent practical experience

What Great Looks Like

Extreme ownership

• Customer obsession without being customer‑controlled
• Bias for action
• Calm under pressure
• Data‑driven decision making
• Ability to simplify complexity
• Strong judgement—knows when to escalta and when to solve
• Executive presence
• Technical curiosity
• Structured problem‑solving
• Ability to identify risks before they become escalations
• Strong follow‑through
• Challenges respectfully; influences without friction

Success Measures

• All Incident response and resolution SLA adherence
• Escalation ageing and time‑to‑close performance
• Repeat incident reduction and RCA completion quality
• Customer technical health score improvement
• Proactive risk identification rate (issues flagged before customer‑impacting)
• Preventive action closure within committed timelines
• NPS satisfaction (NPS) on incident management and technical guidance
• QBR/account‑health readiness and stakeholder alignment
• Reduction in recurring technical issues over time
