Senior Technical Account Manager – AWS

What would an average day look like?

Your day may begin with a review of customer health, open actions, renewal risks, and ongoing delivery activities across your account portfolio. You might then meet with a customer’s technology leadership team to discuss cloud costs, security priorities, an upcoming migration, or the next phase of their transformation roadmap.

Later, you could work with Kloia’s delivery and architecture teams to troubleshoot a high-level technical issue, prepare a Quarterly Business Review, coordinate an AWS vendor engagement, or build the business case for a new cloud transformation initiative.

Direct communication with customer executives and technical stakeholders will be a regular part of the role. You will be expected to keep multiple teams aligned, provide clarity during complex situations, and ensure that customer needs are addressed proactively rather than reactively.

Who should apply?

This role is suited to an experienced Technical Account Manager or enterprise technology account leader who understands both the commercial and technical sides of long-term customer relationships.

You should be comfortable discussing AWS architecture, governance, security, observability, DevOps, and cost optimization with technical teams while also communicating business value, risks, and investment priorities to senior executives.

You are not expected to personally implement every solution, but you should have enough technical depth to understand the customer’s environment, challenge assumptions, contribute to high-level solution discussions, and bring the right specialists into the process.

You take ownership, build trust over time, and do not wait for customer concerns to become escalations before taking action.
