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

• Work as a software engineer • Maintain and expand a deep understanding of agentic coding • Design and build agentic coding systems that we can trust to deliver high-quality outputs • Develop a deep understanding of AI application development patterns and techniques, including emerging approaches and architectures. • Take end-to-end ownership of new features, working with other teams to deliver exceptional reliability and a great developer experience. • Work with multiple programming languages: Python and TypeScript, Java, Go. • Serve as a domain expert on AI design patterns, collaborating with field staff to provide best-practices and canonical examples. • Work directly with our developer community to debug issues that need expert attention and get feedback on Temporal features and APIs. • Write public technical documentation describing Temporal concepts and APIs. • Go the extra mile to support a customer in need, on the rare occasion that our teams’ engineering expertise is needed. • Travel to meet your coworkers for a week once or twice a year. • Attend the occasional developer conference to talk about how great Temporal is (optional).

🎯 Requirements

• 8+ years of professional work experience. • Proven experience in optimizing AI systems using both machine learning and systems techniques • Experience and passion for harnessing generative AI, particularly for agents and coding. • A deep appreciation for how to use AI to improve quality, not only to increase quantity. • A sense of taste in code and software development practice. Your approach should be opinionated and thoughtful, but not dogmatic. • Fluency in multiple programming languages, and an affinity for learning new ones. • Deep experience with concurrent programming—you should know how to use mutexes, atomics, and other concurrency primitives safely. • Experience designing APIs and writing documentation for publicly-available libraries or modules. • Strong technical communication skills—written and verbal—in English. • BS or MS in Computer Science (or a closely-related degree), or equivalent work experience writing production-grade software.
