Temporal Technologies is a company that provides a platform for durable execution, helping developers build resilient applications by managing failures, network outages, and long-running processes. Their technology abstracts away the complexity of building scalable distributed systems, allowing developers to focus on delivering reliable systems faster. Temporal simplifies code by eliminating recovery logic, callbacks, and timers, making software more durable and fault tolerant. The platform supports a wide variety of applications, from transaction processing to applied AI, and is favored by developers for its ease of use and reliability. Temporal is open-source and offers both self-hosted and managed cloud services in multiple regions, enabling scalable, serverless application development.

📋 Description

• Lead the design and implementation of important server features, from proposal through rollout. • Help set technical direction for one or more areas of the OSS Server team. • Work on distributed systems problems across areas such as task matching, scheduling, workflow execution, visibility, quotas, throttling, persistence, developer primitives, and workflow lifecycle features. • Make practical tradeoffs across reliability, performance, operability, product needs, and open source usability. • Partner with engineers, product managers, cloud teams, and customer-facing teams to turn hard problems into clear technical plans. • Improve how we build and run the server through better testing, observability, dashboards, alerts, runbooks, and documentation. • Review designs and code, mentor engineers, and help the team make good technical decisions.

🎯 Requirements

• 12+ years of experience building and operating production distributed systems. • Strong technical leadership experience, including leading design work, aligning engineers, and driving complex projects to completion. • Strong fundamentals in distributed systems, concurrency, fault tolerance, scheduling, and performance. • Production experience with Go, Java, or a similar backend language. • Experience with high-scale or performance-critical systems, such as request serving paths, task queues, scheduling systems, streaming or replication pipelines, rate limiting, sharding, load balancing, workflow engines, or orchestration systems. • Good operational instincts. You care about reliability, observability, debugging, incident response, and making systems easier to run. • Experience designing APIs, primitives, or platform features that other developers use. • Experience working with open source systems or communities. • Experience with cloud infrastructure on AWS, Azure or GCP experience is a plus. • Experience with systems such as Elasticsearch, OpenSearch, ClickHouse, Cassandra, PostgreSQL, or MySQL is a plus. • Experience with Kubernetes controllers, CRDs, KEDA, or Argo is a plus.
