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

• Create new managed compute primitives that feel first-class in Temporal Cloud: crisp abstractions, clean APIs, and an extension story across compute providers. • Design self-optimizing autoscaling systems (signals, backstops, debouncing, guardrails) that scale worker fleets safely and predictably. • Define the Open Source Server ↔ Cloud boundary for compute capabilities, keeping the architecture cohesive and maintainable. • Architect, build, and operate services on the hot path of task execution where performance and correctness are customer-visible. • Deliver real-world cloud integrations (e.g., customer-account execution): IAM boundaries, secure credentials handling, networking constraints, quotas, and failure modes. • Make operability a feature: SLOs, tracing/metrics, load and failure testing, incident reviews, and continuous hardening. • Ship end-to-end: API design, rollout strategy, backwards compatibility, and long-term maintenance. • Raise the bar through design docs, strong reviews, pragmatic technical leadership, and mentorship. • Lead through influence across teams (Server, SDKs, Security, Control Plane) to land coherent platform changes.

🎯 Requirements

• Significant experience building distributed systems or multi-tenant platform services (design, implementation, and production operations). • Strong systems fundamentals: concurrency, performance, reliability, and failure-mode thinking. • A record of shipping platform primitives used by other engineers/customers (APIs, control planes, data planes). • Comfort owning outcomes: SLOs, incident response, and improving on-call quality over time. • Excellent written communication and crisp tradeoff thinking. (Go experience is a plus; judgment matters most.)

🏖️ Benefits

• Unlimited PTO, 12 Holidays + 2 Floating Holidays • 100% Premiums Coverage for Medical, Dental, and Vision • AD&D, LT & ST Disability, and Life Insurance (Standard & Supplemental Available) • Empower 401K Plan • Additional Perks for Learning & Development, Lifestyle Spending, In-Home Office Setup, Professional Memberships, WFH Meals, Internet Stipend and more!
