Temporal is hiring a Staff Software Engineer for Cloud Identity to design and build the identity and access platform powering Temporal Cloud, a multi-tenant SaaS. You'll own authentication systems (OAuth 2.0/2.1, OIDC, SAML, token exchange), authorization engines (RBAC/ReBAC), workload identity federation, and integration with enterprise IdPs at scale. This role requires deep hands-on experience building and operating production identity systems, strong grasp of authorization architectures, track record with latency-sensitive distributed systems, and proficiency in Go; Python, Java, or Kotlin experience is a plus. The position is fully remote in the US, with base salary $212k–$286k plus equity.

The role combines team leadership (recruiting, coaching, and developing Solutions Architects), sales strategy (partnering with AEs on account plans, conducting technical discovery, and resource prioritization), and technical guidance (positioning Temporal against competitors, maintaining product knowledge, and serving as customer voice to Product/Engineering). Required experience includes 5+ years in Solutions Architecture or Sales Engineering with 2+ years leading a technical team, proven success in open-source or developer-tools companies, strong distributed systems background, and proficiency in at least one of Temporal's supported languages (Java, Go, TypeScript, Python, C#, PHP). The role offers $280k–$340k base salary with a 70/30 split (base/variable), equity participation, unlimited PTO, and comprehensive benefits including $3,600/year WFH meals stipend and professional development budget. This is a hands-on leadership position requiring deep technical credibility paired with sales process discipline and a coaching mindset—ideal for someone who's built and scaled pre-sales teams in developer-infrastructure environments.

Remote role aligned with James's location requirement.

Temporal is hiring a Staff Software Engineer for their AI SDK team, which builds durable execution primitives that help AI applications handle distributed systems challenges like fault tolerance, tool calls, and human-in-the-loop workflows. You'll design and implement SDK features across Python and TypeScript, develop deep expertise in AI application architectures, collaborate with the developer community on best practices, and own features end-to-end from prototyping through public documentation. Required qualifications include significant software engineering experience with demonstrable expertise in systems design, multiple programming languages, and a strong commitment to reliability and open-source development. Temporal is a fully remote company backed by leaders like OpenAI and Replit who rely on their platform; the role emphasizes async communication, code quality ("Reliable as Gravity"), and occasional travel to meet the team. This is genuinely open-source work with public PRs and comments, and notably excludes on-call/pager responsibilities—the team prioritizes sustainable engineering over 24/7 support.

Temporal seeks a Staff Product Manager to own the product strategy for AI agents on their durable execution platform, a rapidly growing use case. You'll define the end-to-end developer experience for building and running agents—from orchestration patterns and internal platform strategy to roadmap sequencing and success metrics—working closely with engineering, sales, and developer relations. This role requires 8+ years of PM experience with deep AI/agent domain expertise (you build with frontier models daily), strong developer platform thinking, distributed systems literacy, and the ability to turn vague strategic questions into concrete product bets without heavy direction. Temporal is a well-funded open-source company on a mission to be the reliable foundation of developer toolkits; compensation is $185k–$260k plus equity. The standout here: you need genuine, hands-on agent architecture knowledge and comfort operating in a fast-moving, ambiguous domain—this isn't for someone learning agents on the job.
