Last time I interviewed I saw a couple jobs that had 9-month academic calendar (fall/winter) obligations, for a given salary. If you wanted to teach summer classes at that college for additional pay you were welcome to, or you could just take those months off. or do consulting, or visiting teaching somewhere else, or get a grant to pay your salary while you did research, etc.
My last post got downvoted so I hope it doesn't sound like I love the current academic environment. On the contrary I'm jaded. But if you're just starting out, ask the older people for advice, the more you know the better your chance of survival.
