Job description

OVERVIEW

Modern Treasury is hiring a Technical Account Manager (TAM) to own the end to end post-sale customer journey from onboarding and implementation through long-term operation and growth.

This is a technical, customer-facing role at the intersection of engineering, product, and operations. You will work closely with developers, product managers, and payments teams to design, operate, and scale reliable money movement systems using Modern Treasury’s APIs.

You will act as both a technical advisor and account owner, responsible not just for integrations, but for helping customers run mission-critical financial infrastructure with accuracy, reliability, and scale.

Modern Treasury leverages AI heavily. This role is best suited for someone who is already using AI tools and is eager to continue pushing the envelope on AI best practices.

What You’ll Do

  • Serve as the primary technical advisor for a portfolio of customers, leading onboarding, implementation, and ongoing engagements while building trust with engineering, product, and payments stakeholders
  • Partner with Product, Engineering, Sales, and Support to translate customer needs into product feedback and influence roadmap decisions
  • Deliver business and technical reviews including QBRs and post-mortems, focused on long-term partnership and operational excellence
  • Help customers design, optimize, and scale payment systems, guiding tradeoffs across performance, reliability, and complexity
  • Identify opportunities to expand usage, reduce failure modes, and increase automation across customer workflows
  • Improve internal processes and build scalable, repeatable workflows by leveraging AI tools to accelerate problem-solving and synthesize insights across your customer portfolio

Who You Are

  • 3+ years in client-facing technical roles such as TAM, Solutions Engineer, or Customer Success
  • Strong experience with REST APIs and integration patterns
  • Proven ability to troubleshoot issues in production environments
  • Experience managing complex, cross-functional projects
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills
  • Ability to balance reactive questions with proactive account strategy
  • Experience using AI agents in a work environment
  • Background in fintech, payments, or financial systems
  • Familiarity with money movement, ledgering, and reconciliation workflows
  • Experience with SQL and BI tools for debugging or data analysis

Why work at Modern Treasury

  • Culture: Described as “principled operators solving some of the hardest problems in money movement.” The team values “trust, curiosity, and constructive feedback” and moves fast while thinking deeply.
  • Remote/Hybrid/Office: Offices in San Francisco (77 Geary St.) and New York (184 Fifth Ave.). The presence of at least one employee in Spain suggests some remote flexibility, but the majority of roles appear to be US‑based with an expectation of in‑office presence in SF or NYC.
  • Notable perks:
    • Unlimited PTO
    • Comprehensive healthcare (HMO, PPO, dental, vision)
    • 16 weeks paid parental leave
    • Family planning resources (Carrot)
    • Home office stipend & books/learning stipend
    • 401(k) through Fidelity
    • Charitable donation matching
  • Engineering culture: Strong developer tooling focus; the engineering team (43 people) works on ledgering, APIs, security, and stablecoin infrastructure. Recent job openings include multiple Software Engineer (Security) and Infrastructure roles, indicating investment in reliability and trust.
  • Rating: 3.5/5 on employer rating (42 reviews) – with highest marks for Work‑Life Balance (4.2) and Culture (4.0), lowest for Career Development (3.3). The recent VP of People departure (Feb 2026) may signal organizational change.
