Job Description
**About the Role**
Join a small advanced research team within the Office of the Chief Technology Officer focused on shaping the next generation of Teradata's platform.
This role centers on the foundational layer of the system — how compute actually runs. You'll work close to the hardware and operating system boundary, shaping how resources are provisioned, configured, and optimized across environments spanning bare metal, virtualized systems, containerized platforms, and major cloud providers.
Rather than operating within a fixed platform, you will help define how systems behave at runtime. The environments you design are intended to support highly scalable, performance-sensitive workloads, where efficiency, predictability, and resource utilization matter.
This is work where resource behavior is not abstract — how scheduling, memory, and I/O interact directly determines whether the system performs or degrades.
