Senior Software Engineer, Compute (Temporal Cloud)

Temporal powers durable execution for the world’s most demanding AI and enterprise systems. The Compute team builds managed compute primitives that run workers and other execution systems across Temporal Cloud. We solve a hard platform problem: make compute transparent, elastic, safe-by-default, observable, and multi-cloud without turning customers into infrastructure operators. We build platform primitives spanning serverless-style runtimes, containerized fleets, and customer-controlled. Our at

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
