Account Services team is the preferred trade name for small size teams
engaged in support work (answering questions, or communicating with the
development team, maintaining builds and their timely releases). Some
companies use "Internal System Architect" nomenclature too. When team sizes
grew bigger, this work comes under the umbrella of Members of Technical
Staff.
