About Fluidstack

Fluidstack is the AI Cloud Platform. We build GPU supercomputers for top AI labs, governments, and enterprises. Our customers include Mistral, Poolside, Black Forest Labs, Meta, and more.

Our team is small, highly motivated, and focused on providing a world class supercomputing experience. We put our customers first in everything we do, working hard to not just win the sale, but to win repeated business and customer referrals.

We hold ourselves and each other to high standards. We expect you to care deeply about the work you do, the products you build, and the experience our customers have in every interaction with us.

You must work hard, take ownership from inception to delivery, and approach every problem with an open mind and a positive attitude. We value effectiveness, competence, and a growth mindset.

Overview:
We are hiring our first US-based Technical Account Manager (TAM) to serve as a trusted advisor and strategic partner to several of our largest and most strategic customers.

In this role, you will be responsible for building and maintaining strong, long-lasting customer relationships, managing support requests, designing proactive triage systems, and ensuring seamless communication between our company and our clients. 

With support from a team of Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) who act as technical contacts to resolve issues, the TAM will own service escalations and communications and work closely with FDEs to meet SLA promises, optimize customer experiences, and drive successful outcomes. 

Our TAMs are available during customer working hours. At times, availability outside of these hours will be required for critical support. 

If you are passionate about Artificial Intelligence, cloud infrastructure and customer success, this is an opportunity to make a significant impact.

Focus:

• Act as the primary point of contact and advocate for our customers - obsessing over their needs and ensuring their success with our cloud platform.

• Translate complex technical concepts into actionable insights, ensuring alignment and understanding.

• Stay ahead of industry trends and emerging technologies to proactively recommend innovative solutions to customers.

• Represent the voice of the customer internally, providing feedback to improve products, services, and support processes.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent experience).

• 5+ years of experience in a customer-facing technical role, such as Technical Account Manager, Solutions Architect, or Cloud Support Engineer.

• Strong understanding of cloud architecture, DevOps practices, and tools such as Docker, Kubernetes, SLURM, CI/CD pipelines, or Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, CloudFormation).

• Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to explain complex technical concepts to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

• Experience with project management, cloud migration, or enterprise support is a plus.

• Demonstrated ability to manage complex support requests, anticipate customer needs, and develop innovative support systems to enhance service delivery. Must be able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment while maintaining a customer-first mindset.

Exceptional candidates have one or more of the following experiences:

• Startup Experience: Worked at an early-stage company (pre-Series A or Series A)

• System Design Expertise: Designed and implemented end-to-end systems (e.g., software, support, infrastructure, workflows) from the ground up, with demonstrable impact on business or technical outcomes.

• Role Scaling Experience: Successfully expanded the scope of your responsibilities in a previous position, growing your impact through increased ownership, team collaboration, or system expansion (e.g., scaled a prototype to production, grew a process to serve 10x users).

• Problem-Solving Mindset: Strong ability to break down complex challenges, devise practical solutions, and iterate quickly based on feedback or data.

• Hands-on experience with cloud platforms, including AWS (e.g., EC2, Sagemaker, Bedrock, S3, Lambda), Google Cloud (e.g., Compute Engine, Vertex, GKE, BigQuery), Azure (e.g., Virtual Machines, Azure OpenAI) etc.
