As a Senior Technical Account Manager, you'll be the strategic bridge between Ben's most important customers and internal teams, owning the technical relationship for a book of strategic accounts managing tens of thousands of employees.
You'll serve as the escalation point for complex technical challenges around benefits configuration, wallet and allowance issues, and payroll reporting. Your responsibilities include owning the most technically demanding accounts where configuration complexity, scale, or integration requirements demand senior-level expertise.

- Create playbooks, troubleshooting guides, and documentation to help the team scale
- Coach and support Associate TAMs on technical troubleshooting and complex problem-solving

This role combines hands-on technical problem-solving with strategic influence over product direction. You'll be both an operator (solving today's customer challenges) and an architect (building systems and processes for tomorrow's scale).
