As a Technical Account Manager on the Omnichannel team, you'll own the technical onboarding journey for merchants launching on TikTok Shop with AfterShip Channels—getting them fully live and selling, and setting them up to succeed long term. You'll be the hands-on technical partner who connects and configures each merchant's integration, troubleshoots what breaks, and teaches merchants to operate Channels confidently on their own. This is both a technical and relationship role. You'll do the hands-on integration and configuration work, and you'll be the merchant's trusted guide: educating them on how to use Channels and adopt the advanced features that make them successful on TikTok Shop. You're not just closing tickets; you're accountable for whether each merchant reaches a live, healthy, self-sufficient state.

Requirements

3+ years in a customer-facing technical role - technical account management, solutions, implementation, or technical onboarding in SaaS, ecommerce, or marketplace/integrations technology.
Genuine technical fluency: comfort with APIs and integrations, data mapping across systems, and structured troubleshooting. You can diagnose why something isn't working, not just escalate it.
A strong educator: able to translate technical concepts into clear guidance and teach merchants to operate independently.
Ability to prioritize, multitask, and perform under pressure across multiple accounts.
Excellent written and verbal communication; able to hold a credible technical conversation with both merchants and platform partners.
Ownership mindset - you treat your accounts as yours to grow and protect.

Nice To Haves

Hands-on familiarity with TikTok Shop (Seller Center, catalog/listing management, order and inventory sync, fulfillment workflows) and Shopify.
Understanding of what drives merchant growth on TikTok Shop—listing optimization, content & affiliates-driven commerce, and platform campaigns—so you can guide merchants beyond initial setup.
Familiarity with affiliate/creator operations.
Experience onboarding enterprise merchants.

Responsibilities

Own end-to-end technical onboarding for merchants launching on TikTok Shop with AfterShip Channels, from kickoff through go-live.
Connect and configure integrations between the merchant's storefront and TikTok Shop; sync products, orders, and inventory, and troubleshoot issues (SKU mapping, variants, bundles).
Navigate TikTok Shop platform logic—API constraints, policy and whitelist nuances, and fulfillment (FBT) and returns rules.
Teach merchants how to use Feed confidently and adopt advanced features so they can operate independently.
Drive measurable onboarding outcomes: get merchants to live and healthy within ~30 days, and meaningful advanced-feature adoption thereafter.
Guide merchants beyond initial setup—helping them optimize their listings and use AfterShip Feed and Affiliates to grow their presence and sales on TikTok Shop.
Partner with merchants on their TikTok Shop growth journey, identifying opportunities for deeper feature adoption and surfacing cross-sell opportunities (e.g. Affiliates) where they'd drive merchant value.
