The Technical Partner Management (TPM) team owns the end-to-end technical health, expansion, and evolution of Yext’s Publisher Network.

As a Technical Partner Manager (TPM), you will operate at the intersection of Product, Engineering, Publisher Partnerships, and Operations to design, implement, and maintain high-impact publisher integrations across Yext’s Listings ecosystem. TPMs combine systems thinking, integration architecture, technical investigation, and execution leadership to ensure publisher integrations are scalable, reliable, and continuously improving.

This is a highly technical, cross-functional role that blends integration ownership, operational rigor, and structured solution design. TPMs are trusted technical leads for the Publisher Network and play a critical role in reducing Engineering overhead while increasing integration quality and velocity.

Responsibilities

~1 min read

Lead technical discovery for new and existing publisher integrations by analyzing API documentation, changelogs, and system behavior
Define detailed functional and technical requirements for integrations, new fields, and feature expansions
Partner directly with Engineering to drive implementation from specification through QA and release
Validate edge cases and ensure integrations meet expected behavior and performance standards prior to launch
Continuously evolve integrations as publisher capabilities and Yext products expand

Define, monitor, and continuously improve KPIs for integration health
Build and maintain monitoring using SQL, Snowflake, Python, and observability tools (e.g., dashboards, alerting systems)
Proactively identify systemic issues and implement scalable solutions rather than one-off fixes
Investigate complex production issues across databases, APIs, and integration layers
Determine whether issues originate on the Yext or publisher side and coordinate resolution paths accordingly

Leverage modern development and AI-assisted tools to analyze system behavior and trace integration issues
Identify configuration, logic, or workflow gaps contributing to defects
Propose and collaborate on code-level or architectural improvements with Engineering
Submit well-scoped change requests when appropriate and partner closely with Engineering through resolution

While TPMs are not Software Engineers, they operate with a strong understanding of system architecture and code behavior.

Drive delivery of new fields, features, and capabilities to existing integrations
Partner with strategic publishers (e.g., Tier 1 platforms) to beta test and adopt new functionality
Identify product gaps and advocate for scalable solutions that improve customer outcomes
Contribute to automation initiatives that reduce manual operational work across Yext

Act as the technical liaison between Engineering, Product, Publisher Partnerships, Support, and Publisher contacts
Translate complex technical issues into clear business impact for non-technical stakeholders
Escalate systemic risks appropriately and influence prioritization when integration health is at risk
Support high-impact strategic client escalations involving Tier 1 publishers when needed

TPM is not a traditional support function. It is a technical ownership role responsible for the architecture, reliability, and evolution of Yext’s publisher ecosystem.

TPMs reduce Product and Engineering load by:

Conducting integration R&D
Defining requirements with precision
Filtering and resolving false escalations
Building monitoring and automation systems
Driving scalable improvements

This role requires comfort operating in ambiguity, making technical recommendations independently, and influencing cross-functional outcomes without formal authority.

BA/BS in Engineering, Computer Science, or related technical field (or equivalent technical depth through experience)
Strong systems thinking and ability to reason through APIs, data flows, and integration architectures
Experience working with APIs and reading technical documentation
Proficiency with SQL and data analysis (Snowflake or similar data warehouses)
Experience writing scripts in Python (or similar language) to automate workflows or analyze data
Strong technical debugging and root cause analysis skills
Ability to write structured functional and technical documentation
Excellent communication skills across both technical and non-technical audiences
High ownership mentality and ability to operate independently in ambiguous environments

Publisher integrations launch on time with minimal post-release defects
Integration health metrics trend positively over time
Systemic issues are solved at scale rather than via one-off fixes
Engineering load related to publisher integrations is reduced through TPM ownership
Strategic publisher relationships result in expanded capabilities and improved customer outcomes
