Temporal powers durable execution for the world’s most demanding AI and enterprise systems. The Compute team at Temporal makes that durability feel effortless by building the managed compute primitives that run workers and other execution systems across Temporal Cloud. We’re solving a hard platform problem: make compute transparent, elastic, safe-by-default, observable, and multi-cloud — without turning customers into infrastructure operators.
Job Responsibility:
Invent new managed compute primitives that feel first-class in Temporal Cloud
Design self-optimizing autoscaling systems that scale worker fleets safely and predictably
Define the Open Source Server ↔ Cloud boundary for compute capabilities
Architect, build, and operate services on the hot path of task execution where performance and correctness are customer-visible
Deliver real-world cloud integrations
Make operability a feature
Ship end-to-end
Raise the bar through design docs, strong reviews, pragmatic technical leadership, and mentorship
Lead through influence across teams
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
Nice to have:
Experience building cloud infrastructure platforms
Experience with IAM/security boundaries for cross-account execution models
Having built Kubernetes controllers / CRDs or heterogeneous worker fleet operations
