Job description
Ververica is the original creator of Apache Flink® and remains a core contributor to it. Flink is the leading open-source engine for stream and batch processing. It runs mission-critical workloads at Netflix, Alibaba, Amazon and Uber, as well as at banks, telcos and global enterprises.
We build Ververica Unified Streaming Data Platform, an enterprise-grade platform for real-time data on top of Flink. Backed by one of the world's largest tech companies, we combine open-source innovation with long-term stability.
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
We are hiring a Technical Account Manager (TAM) to be the technical lead for our customers across North and South America. You will be their trusted advisor and hands-on partner, from first deployment through long-term production operations.
You will work with platform owners, data engineers and architects to design, run and scale their stream processing on Ververica Unified Streaming Data Platform. Because you work in their time zone, you will be the person they reach first when something matters, during the sales process and after it.
When you are not with customers, you will deepen your Flink expertise, feed what you learn back into our products, and help grow the Flink community.
NICE TO HAVE
LOCATION AND WORKING HOURS
This is a remote role for someone based between UTC-4 and UTC-7. That covers US and Canadian Eastern, Central, Mountain and Pacific time, plus Latin American countries in the same range.
At Ververica, we believe innovation starts with diverse perspectives. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds. If you are passionate about helping customers succeed with real-time data, we would love to hear from you.
