• Defining and owning the compute and cloud services product strategy that enables Teradatas analytics and AI platform to run efficiently at scale.
• Driving a roadmap that supports elastic compute, workload isolation, performance optimisation, and cost efficiency across cloud and hybrid environments.
• Partnering with cloud platform and infrastructure teams to ensure Teradatas services align with hyperscaler primitives (AWS, Azure, GCP) while preserving platform consistency.
• Enabling Teradatas AI and advanced analytics workloads through computeaware platform design, including support for GPUenabled and AIaccelerated use cases where applicable.
• Collaborating with engineering to translate customer, field, and partner requirements into clear, prioritised product requirements.
• Working closely with strategic infrastructure and OEM partners (e.g., Dell and others) to support validated architectures, reference solutions, and joint deployments where relevant.
• Supporting gotomarket teams with technical narratives, solution positioning, and customer engagement support.
• Ensuring compute and cloud services meet enterprise expectations for security, reliability, availability, and lifecycle management.
