We are expanding our team! You can be anywhere in the U.S. and in the Pacific time zone outside of the U.S., and in other various countries as noted for specified positions.
At Temporal, we are on a mission to remove the complexity of developing reliable software for the cloud. If you want to solve hard distributed system problems, have a passion for open source software and building a strong developer community, then join us in our mission. Temporal enables developers to focus on writing important business logic and not on managing state or worrying about the underlying infrastructure. The Temporal platform is trusted by top-tier
companies as a core technology in their mission-critical systems. Our active open source community of developers, who are also our users, provides us with real-time feedback and contributions. We’re backed by top VC firms,
have closed Series B, and have a team of professionals from start-ups and larger companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, Uber, Apple, Cisco, and more.
We are searching for Software Engineers to join our core infrastructure team.
As a Software Engineer, you have 2-5 years in industry, and have the desire to grow and learn while making an impact on Temporal’s scalable platform. You will get the chance to design, build, and maintain meaningful portions of the cloud infrastructure used by the Temporal server product, including working on the infrastructure for both our cloud offering and on-prem Enterprise solutions. You will also be responsible for designing, building, and maintaining significant pieces of backend functionality for a highly scalable multi-tenant service.
Working in a highly collaborative team, we look to build a new enterprise offering that will involve both on-premise and dedicated cloud offerings.
