You know how to build operating models that hold up under growth and how to get a team performing consistently at a high level. People leadership You've led teams of technical individual contributors and know how to develop, retain, and get the best out of people who are deeper in the technical weeds than you are. Enterprise experience You've worked with large, complex enterprise customers and understand the stakes, the expectations, and the relationship dynamics that come with it. Process builder You know how to build structure that scales without creating bureaucracy. You make teams faster and more consistent - not slower. Cross-functional influence You've driven alignment across Engineering, Product, Sales, and Customer Success without direct authority. You build credibility through clarity, follow-through, and results. Data orientation You use data to understand what's working, what isn't, and where to focus. You're comfortable building reporting frameworks and presenting operational performance to senior leadership. Comfort with ambiguity You thrive in a fast-moving environment. You ask good questions, move with incomplete information, and make sound judgment calls under pressure. Bonus Points For * Experience scaling a TAM, CSM, or technical support function at a SaaS or cloud infrastructure company * Background leading through a period of rapid growth or significant organizational change * Familiarity with cloud storage, developer tools, or infrastructure products - even if you're not an engineer yourself * Experience building or managing enterprise tiered service offerings ## Description Backblaze is at an inflection point. Our enterprise customer base is growing fast, our Technical Account Manager team is delivering exceptional results, and the opportunity in front of us demands that we invest in the leadership and infrastructure to match that momentum., We're looking for a Director of Enterprise Support to lead and scale this function. You'll own how we deliver support to our most strategic customers - setting the standard for what excellent enterprise support looks like at Backblaze, developing a team of highly skilled Technical Account Managers, and building the operational foundation that lets us grow without sacrificing quality. You'll report to the Senior Director of Customer Support within the broader Customer Success organization and lead a team of 7-8 Technical Account Managers. This is a people and business leadership role - the TAMs bring deep technical expertise, and you bring the operational rigor, coaching, and strategic vision to elevate the entire function. What You'll Do * Lead and develop the team. Manage, coach, and grow a team of 7-8 Technical Account Managers. Invest in their development, raise the performance bar, and build a team culture where exceptional work is the norm. * Own enterprise customer outcomes. Partner with Sales, Customer Success, and Product to ensure our most strategic customers are receiving a consistently excellent, proactive support experience that reflects the Backblaze standard. * Scale the operating model. As our enterprise customer base grows, build the delivery frameworks, workflows, and service standards that allow the team to scale with it - without losing what makes us great. * Drive operational performance. Establish the KPIs, reporting cadences, and feedback loops that give leadership clear visibility into how enterprise support is performing - and where to invest next. * Build for scale. Identify the tooling, automation, and process improvements that increase capacity and consistency as we grow - so headcount isn't the only answer. * Be the connective tissue. Work cross-functionally with Engineering, Product, and Sales to resolve escalations, influence roadmap priorities, and ensure the enterprise customer voice is represented internally. * Codify and elevate. Partner with the Principal TAM and Senior Director to turn the team's deep expertise into repeatable, trainable processes that raise the floor across the entire function. The Right Fit This is a specific hire for a specific moment. We need a seasoned operational leader who knows how to scale a high-performing team - someone who brings structure and strategy without slowing down what's already working. ## Related Videos - [Startup Presentation: StorX - Future of Cloud Storage](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1176-startup-presentation-storx-future-of-cloud-storage) - [Green Cloud Computing](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/592-green-cloud-computing) - [AI Pair Programming with GitHub Copilot at SAP: Looking Back, Looking Forward!](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1546-ai-pair-programming-with-github-copilot-at-sap-looking-back-looking-forward) - [Next Level Enterprise Architecture: Modular, Flexible, Scalable, Multichannel and AI-Ready?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1017-next-level-enterprise-architecture-modular-flexible-scalable-multichannel-and-ai-ready) - [Security Challenges of Breaking A Monolith](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/362-security-challenges-of-breaking-a-monolith) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) ## Related Articles - [What Are The Top Skills Required For Azure Developers?](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/77-what-are-the-top-skills-required-for-azure-developers) - [How to Answer the Interview Question: “Why Do You Want to Be a Software Engineer?”](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/392-how-to-answer-the-interview-question-why-do-you-want-to-be-a-software-engineer) - [Highest Paying Tech Companies for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/220-highest-paying-tech-companies-for-developers) - [Promotion Interview Questions: How to Answer and Get the Job](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/413-promotion-interview-questions-how-to-answer-and-get-the-job) - [How We Built a Worry-Free System That Runs for 10+ Years – And What We’d Do Again](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/751-how-we-built-a-worry-free-system-that-runs-for-10-years-and-what-we-d-do-again) - [The Most Important Concept Every Developer Should Know](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/344-the-most-important-concept-every-developer-should-know)
