reliability, and customer trust under complex, large‐scale workloads.You will focus on diagnosing and resolving memory‐driven system behaviors that manifest in customer‐impacting scenarios, particularly under AI‐driven and high‐concurrency workloads.You will:* Drive long‐term improvements by identifying systemic gaps in memory behavior and influencing design, validation, and operational practices across the platform* Own end‐to‐end resolution and prevention of classes of customer‐impacting issues related to memory pressure, allocation, and execution‐path behavior* Lead cross‐team technical investigations involving SQLE, PDE, OS, networking, infrastructure, and performance teams to resolve complex, system‐wide issues* Influence engineering decisions through deep technical insights derived from real‐world system behavior under memory pressure* Diagnose and resolve complex system behaviors driven by memory pressure, resource contention, and cross-layer execution dynamics* Identify and resolve cases that appear as SQL Engine issues but originate in memory or execution‐layer interactions* Provide PDE‐adjacent L4 triage and escalation support, particularly for high‐severity incidents* Drive root cause analysis and translate field learnings into systemic engineering improvements* Drive collaboration with System Performance Engineering to address cross-layer memory and concurrency challenges* Develop and scale memory‐focused diagnostic playbooks and best practices across the organization* Deliver and drive targeted code fixes and enhancements in memory‐ and PDE‐adjacent execution paths when requiredSuccess in this role looks like:* Drives systemic improvements that reduce recurring classes of memory- and execution-related customer-impacting issues across releases* Significantly improves time-to-diagnosis for complex incidents involving memory pressure, resource contention, and cross-layer execution behavior* Enables faster, more accurate, and lower-risk recovery decisions during high-severity incidents* Improves correctness, stability, and performance of memory, allocation, and execution behavior under high-concurrency and AI-driven workloads* Identifies and resolves root causes behind issues that appear as SQL Engine problems but originate in memory or execution-layer interactions* Scales diagnostic capability across teams through memory-focused playbooks, best practices, and knowledge sharing* Strengthens collaboration and alignment across SQLE, PDE, and Performance Engineering, driving coordinated solutions to cross-layer issues* Reduces dependency on individual escalation by enabling broader team capability to diagnose and handle complex memory-related issuesWho You’ll Work WithOn our team, we operate at the intersection of sustaining, performance engineering, data engine, and platform engineering.You will work closely with:* Sustaining and System Performance engineering teams* SQLE and PDE engineering teams* Storage, NOS, and execution‐path owners* Customer support and escalation teamsThis role reports into Sustaining and Performance Engineering leadership and requires strong cross‐organizational influence and collaboration.Our team plays a critical role in:* Protecting customer trust through consistent, high‐quality system behavior at scale* Ensuring correctness, reliability, and performance across SQLE, memory systems, data access, and cross‐layer execution paths in production environments* Enabling Teradata’s evolution to a cloud‐native, AI‐powered data platform through reliable, high‐performance execution of complex data and AI workloads at scaleWhat Makes You a Qualified Candidate* 10+ years of experience in distributed systems, database engine, performance engineering, or large‐scale data platforms* Strong expertise in diagnosing complex, cross‐layer issues involving memory, OS, networking, infrastructure, concurrency, and execution behavior in production environments* Deep understanding of system internals (e. g. , SQLE, PDE, or equivalent execution/runtime environments)* Demonstrated ability to lead technical investigations and influence engineering decisions across teams* Strong problem‐solving and communication skills in cross‐functional engineering environments* Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or a related fieldWhat You’ll Bring* Extensive experience with OS-level diagnostics and understanding of system resource behavior (e. g. , memory, processes, I/O, scheduling)* Strong scripting skills (e. g. , Python) to develop diagnostic tools, automate analysis, and process large-scale system data* Familiarity with networking and cloud infrastructure concepts to support end-to-end diagnosis of distributed system behavior* Experience with database execution internals or platform runtime systems* Strong background in memory behavior, resource management, and performance under concurrency* Experience working on high‐severity production incidents (Sev1/Sev2)* Familiarity with performance analysis, observability tools, and diagnostic frameworks* Understanding of spill behavior, caching strategies, and execution‐path optimization* Ability to distinguish between surface symptoms and underlying system causes (e. g. , SQL vs memory vs execution)* Experience translating field issues into actionable engineering improvements* Experience working across global teams and influencing complex engineering organizations* Ability to stay current with emerging trends in engineering, AI, and cloud-native technologiesWhy We Think You'll Love TeradataWe prioritize a people-first culture because we know our people are at the very heart of our success.
