We’re hiring a Staff Software Engineer to join the Replication Foundations team, part of Temporal’s Cloud Global Services (CGS) organization.
Replication Foundations owns and evolves Temporal’s core replication stack in Temporal OSS—the distributed systems backbone behind key Temporal Cloud capabilities like High Availability namespaces, cross-cluster and cross-region failover, and migration products that let customers move workloads between self-hosted Temporal and Temporal Cloud. The team also drives fundamental scalability and reliability mechanisms that define how Temporal operates at large scale.
At the Staff level, you’ll operate as a technical leader in Temporal’s distributed core: shaping protocols and correctness guarantees, leading complex efforts end-to-end, raising engineering rigor across replication foundations, and partnering cross-functionally to ensure OSS primitives unlock current and future cloud products. This role is deeply technical and requires comfort reasoning about consistency, concurrency, failure modes, performance, and operational safety in correctness-critical systems.
Key outcomes you’ll drive:
