Role Overview 

The APAC Client-Facing Technology Lead ensures that technology meaningfully improves the working lives and business outcomes of PIMCO's client-facing teams across APAC.

This role starts with the end user — deeply understanding the goals, workflows, and friction points of APAC Sales, Marketing, Servicing, and PSG teams — and works backward to connect those needs to the right solution, whether that means leveraging existing global platforms, driving targeted enhancements, or making the case for net-new capabilities.

Acting as a senior bridge between the APAC client-facing organization and global product and engineering teams, this role is the voice of APAC in global technology decisions — ensuring solutions are grounded in real user needs and regional context.

Success is measured by whether technology is visibly improving how APAC teams work and deliver for clients.

Key Responsibilities 

Understanding User Goals

• Build deep, trusted relationships with client-facing leaders and teams across APAC
• Develop a thorough understanding of how APAC Sales, Marketing, Servicing, and PSG teams work — their goals, day-to-day workflows, pain points, and unmet needs
• Maintain an ongoing, structured view of where technology is and is not delivering value across APAC

Matching Needs to Solutions

• Act as the primary connector between user needs and available technology — identifying where existing global platforms can address APAC goals and enabling teams to get full value from them
• Exercise strong judgment on solution fit, ensuring recommendations are driven by what genuinely serves the user
• Provide structured, responsive support so that users can extract maximum value from the tools available to them

Influence Platform Directions

• Translate user insights into clear, well-evidenced input for global product roadmaps — advocating for enhancements, new capabilities, or net-new solutions where needed
• Partner with global product and engineering teams to prioritize and deliver solutions grounded in APAC user needs
• Ensure that APAC requirements — including regional regulatory considerations and market-specific workflows — are reflected in global platform decisions

Qualifications 

Essential Qualifications

• Prior experience in asset management, investment banking or alternatives
• Deep knowledge of one or more Sales, Marketing, or Client Servicing domains: the goals, workflows, data, and tools that define how those teams work (e.g., Salesforce, Dynamics, Marketo, Tableau, Power BI)
• Demonstrated ability to build trusted relationships with internal users and senior stakeholders
• Strong consultative instinct — able to engage users with curiosity, identify the real problem beneath the stated one, and distinguish between a workflow gap, a training need, and a missing capability
• Proven ability to translate user insights into clear, well-evidenced technology recommendations — whether pointing to an existing solution, requesting a roadmap enhancement, or making a case for something new
• Credibility with both senior business stakeholders and technical product/engineering teams — able to operate fluently in both worlds
• Excellent communication skills, with the ability to frame technology in terms of business value
• We welcome candidates from diverse professional backgrounds including former account associates or client facing business roles – who have developed a strong orientation towards technology.  

Preferred Qualifications

• A strong product ‘mindset’: user empathy, outcome orientation, iterative delivery and roadmaps
• Experience working with global product or engineering teams on roadmap shaping and prioritization
• Experience leading regional change or adoption initiatives for enterprise platforms
• Experience with client reporting and/or portfolio analytics
