The Compute team owns the layer all of that runs on. We are looking for a Head of Engineering to lead the effort to make any aspects of Temporal's compute invisible to our customers, allowing them to focus on application layer innovation, while we handle the compute muck.

Responsibilities

  • Strategic direction for Compute
  • Own the strategy and standards of excellence for the compute layer that the world's agents run on, across design, delivery, and operations.
  • Build a culture of ownership, quality, and customer-first decision-making.
  • Technical leadership
  • Lead, hire, and grow a high-ownership team; roll up sleeves, ready to do deep into the trenches, by staying close to design docs and code, rather than managing from a distance. Coach engineers, level them up, and clear the friction that slows them down.
  • Roadmap & trajectory
  • Drive the arc from today's compute toward the next-generation of compute platforms. Ground prioritization in customer and design-partner feedback, and turn ambiguous, fast-moving requirements into predictable, iterative delivery.
  • Operational excellence: When you run frontier AI in production, reliability is the product.
  • Own operations, run on-call and incident response, and drive blameless postmortems and the systemic fixes that prevent recurrence.
  • Technical depth: Guide the hard architectural decisions for large-scale, multi-tenant compute, where technical concerns cut across workload isolation and security, scheduling, fleet efficiency / utilization / goodput, and performance, while ensuring the platform is reliable and efficient for the workloads that depend…
