Rowan Walker
@rowanwalker
Technical Account Manager and enterprise customer success leader specializing in retention, DevOps fluency, and technical advocacy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a relationship-first enterprise leader with 15+ years turning complex technical environments into long-term customer partnerships. I specialize in retaining enterprise accounts at risk of churn through proactive escalation leadership, structured root cause investigations, and consultative guidance that accelerates adoption.
Across CircleCI and Meta, I’ve acted as the voice of enterprise customers to Product and Engineering—shaping prioritization of systemic fixes that protect retention and drive measurable efficiency gains. From CI/CD and DevOps fluency to QBR facilitation, I’m equally comfortable in boardroom conversations and technical war rooms.
I also bring a strong execution background—leading AI-powered support platform delivery, improving internal resolution speed with scalable documentation and feedback systems, and coordinating high-severity incident response. Whether it’s onboarding frameworks, defect prioritization, or log-driven troubleshooting, I build trust that translates into better customer outcomes and sustainable growth.
