The posting, in Temporal's own words
archived Sep 5, 2026Summary
The Cloud Platform Foundations team builds and operates the core infrastructure behind Temporal Cloud, with a focus on reliability, scalability, and automation . The team owns foundational systems including high availability and disaster recovery , control plane automation , resource and namespace management , and the customer-facing interfaces that shape how users integrate with the platform—from our APIs and CLI to the Terraform provider, SDKs, and Kubernetes operator. In this role, you'll build systems that directly strengthen Temporal Cloud's resilience, performance, and developer experience . You'll work closely with engineers and product managers to automate critical operations, evolve our multi-tenant control plane, reduce blast radius, improve namespace density, and build safer CI/CD pipelines. If you enjoy solving ambiguous, high-leverage infrastructure problems and creating durable tools that help both customers and engineers move faster, we'd love to meet you.
What You'll Do
High Availability & Disaster Recovery (HA/DR) — Enabling continuous regional failover and improving platform resilience. Control Plane Automation — Automating operations to improve reliability and developer efficiency. Database Performance and Optimization : Our data layer is scaling beyond its current limits. We need someone who can scale it by orders of magnitude while holding the line on latency, reliability, and availability. Deployment Plane : As our deploy frequency and engineering headcount both climb, we own redesigning the path from commit to production, drawing on strong infrastructure, deployment tooling, and systems design expertise. CI/CD for Control Plane — Building reliable pipelines for safer rollouts, faster iteration, and better test coverage.
