Developer Advocate
The Teradata Developer Relations team is a global team within the Product organization. We build practical technical resources, engage developer communities, and help builders succeed with Teradata's agentic development tools and Autonomous Knowledge Platform. Our work sits at the intersection of developer experience, content, community, product feedback, and go-to-market enablement.
As a Developer Advocate, you will help data engineers, analysts, data scientists, and AI builders understand what they can build with Teradata - and how to get started quickly. You will own technical enablement, including quickstarts, how-to guides, demos, Agent Skills, workshops, videos, and feedback loops that improve the product experience. The right person is technical enough to build credible examples, clear enough to teach technical concepts simply, and curious enough to experiment with emerging agentic workflows before the playbook is fully written.
Create technical content including tutorials, videos, demos, blogs, how-to guides, workshops, and Agent Skills that help developers build with Teradata.
Explore agent-driven development scenarios and share practical experiments with the developer community.
Run and support community programs including office hours, workshops, webinars, DevTalk livestreams, meetups, and other developer engagement activities.
Answer developer questions, troubleshoot common issues, and escalate recurring bugs, gaps, and friction to the appropriate internal teams.
Contribute to KPIs that measure developer adoption, engagement, satisfaction, content quality, and advocacy impact.
Speak at developer conferences and events to represent Teradata publicly and build brand awareness in the developer ecosystem.
Track developer, AI, and ecosystem trends to help position Teradata within the broader developer landscape.
Partner with engineers, architects, product managers, partners, and builders to understand developer needs and improve the developer experience.
Review, test, and provide feedback on early product previews, partner integrations, demos, and developer-facing assets to ensure technical accuracy and usability.
Who You'll Work With:
You will work as part of the Teradata Developer Relations team within the Product organization, collaborating closely with engineers, architects, product managers, developer experience, content, and go-to-market teams. You will engage regularly with the broader developer community - including data engineers, analysts, data scientists, and AI builders - to understand their needs, reduce friction, and improve the Teradata developer experience. You will also partner with partners, field teams, and community programs to amplify Teradata's presence in key developer ecosystems.
What Makes You a Qualified Candidate:
2+ years of related technology experience in roles such as developer, developer advocate, solutions architect, technical product manager, technical writer, or developer educator.
Experience independently building technical content, code samples, demos, tutorials, or workshops for developer audiences.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
Working knowledge of software development practices, APIs, authentication, testing, CI/CD, version control, and distributed systems.
Proficiency in Python and at least one other common programming language, such as JavaScript, Go, or Rust.
Experience managing code repositories and collaborative development workflows, including GitHub.
What You'll Bring:
Experience with common developer tools such as VS Code, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or similar AI-assisted development environments.
Familiarity with the analytics ecosystem, including data ingestion, data management, model development, and model deployment workflows.
Working knowledge of AI development techniques, tools, and frameworks, including Model Context Protocol (MCP), Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG), Agent Skills, LangChain, and LangGraph.
Ability to troubleshoot common developer issues, improve content or demos based on feedback, and communicate recurring friction to the right internal teams.
Comfort presenting technical content in external settings such as webinars, workshops, meetups, or developer conferences.
Independent, curious approach to building technical fluency across product setup, APIs, documentation, and core developer workflows.
Organized and accountable working style, with the ability to own scoped content, community, or event workstreams from planning through follow-up.
As a Developer Advocate at Teradata, you will help define how developers experience and build with Teradata's Autonomous Knowledge Platform and agentic development tools.
