Location is not specified in the posting; Teradata is headquartered in San Diego, CA, but the flexible work model language and absence of any location requirement suggest this may be a remote-eligible or location-agnostic role.
The JD states 'Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent from a recognized institution' — because equivalent experience is explicitly accepted, this is not treated as a hard degree gate.
Java, Go, and Python are listed together as a single proficiency requirement ('Strong proficiency in Java, Go, or Python'); Java is used as the primary name with Go and Python as alternatives.
GitHub Copilot appears under the required qualifications section with the qualifier 'e.g.' ('AI productivity tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot)'), meaning the specific tool is interchangeable but experience with AI productivity tooling is a hard gate.
Kafka is listed under 'What You'll Bring', a secondary/preferred section, so it is treated as preferred.
LLMs and Agentic AI appear under 'What You'll Bring' as preferred; they also appear in the responsibilities narrative but are not gated in the requirements block.
