What You'll Do

As the Senior Manager AI Applications, you will serve as a leader who drives the vision, execution, and growth of Teradata’s AI Applications Portfolio. Acting as a “mini-CEO,” you will operate with end-to-end accountability across the transformation of the Apps space through the AI transformation.

In this role you will lead a critical and highly visible team within Teradata AI Applications Platform. As an Agentic AI Leader at Teradata, you’ll build cutting-edge intelligent agents that transform how users explore data, derive insights, and automate workflows across industries such as healthcare, finance, and telecommunications.

As a hands-on leader you will work with a team of highly skilled AI engineers to design and implement autonomous AI agents for enterprise level use cases supporting varied industry applications, like customer 360, real-time decisioning, semantic search, text-to-SQL translation, and analytical task execution.

You’ll work alongside high-caliber teams of AI researchers, engineers, and data scientists tackling some of the hardest problems in AI and enterprise software.

If you're passionate about building intelligent systems that are not only powerful but observable, resilient, and production-ready, this role offers the opportunity to shape the future of enterprise AI from the ground up.

 Who You'll work with

You’ll collaborate with a world-class team of AI architects, engineers, and domain experts in Silicon Valley, working together to build the next generation of enterprise AI systems.

You’ll also work cross-functionally with:

• Product managers and UX designers working to craft agentic workflows that are intuitive and impactful.
• Domain specialists to ensure solutions align with real-world business problems in regulated industries.
• Infrastructure and platform teams responsible for training, evaluation, and scaling AI workloads.

This is a rare opportunity to shape foundational AI capabilities within a global, data-driven company.

This is a deeply collaborative environment where technical innovation meets real-world application, where your ideas are not only heard but implemented to shape the next generation of data interaction.

 What Makes You a Qualified Candidate

• 8+ years of progressive experience in technology leadership, including at least 2 years focused on AI/ML, intelligent systems, or agent-based architectures.
• Over 5 years of management experience leading strong engineering teams.
• Deep understanding of software design principles and scalable architecture patterns. 
• Strong experience with LLM APIs (e.g., OpenAI, Claude, Gemini) and agentic frameworks (e.g., AutoGen, LangGraph, AgentBuilder, CrewAI). 
• Proven ability to build complex multi-step workflows using prompt pipelines, tools, and adaptive reasoning. 
• Familiarity with agent evaluation metrics: correctness, latency, grounding, and tool use accuracy. 
• Experience leading AI projects from inception to deployment in a production setting. 
• Strong Java (or similar programming languages like Go, etc) programming skills with solid understanding of data structures. Proficient in concepts like Multithreading.
• Good knowledge of SQL and Relational Database Management Systems (RDBMS).

 What You'll Bring

• BS or MS degree in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Software Engineering, or a related technical field.
• A solid foundation in software engineering principles, including system design, data structures, algorithms, and distributed computing.
• Proven ability to work in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment where engineers take full ownership from concept to deployment.
• Experience deploying and operating intelligent systems in production environments with live users and evolving requirements.
• Curiosity, creativity, and the mindset of a builder — someone who thrives at the intersection of AI research and real-world impact.
• Desire to help shape the future of software agents by building scalable, reliable, and intelligent backends that unlock new capabilities in autonomy and adaptability.
