Senior Software Engineer, Infrastructure Foundations

Temporal Technologies, United States (remote)

The role

Infrastructure Foundations builds and operates the multi-cloud platform underneath Temporal Cloud, turning the complexity of AWS, Google Cloud (GCP), and Azure into one cohesive platform the rest of Temporal builds on. Every cell we run is provisioned, managed, and safely changed by systems this team owns. When a customer's workflow runs, it runs on our work. We are heading into the next stage: Kubernetes-based infrastructure platforms built for the next orders of magnitude of growth.

The role

What you will do

Multi-cloud platform: Build the provider-specific pieces behind one consistent platform, from EKS, GKE, and AKS cluster differences to IAM, networking, and quotas. Help stand up new regions and extend the platform to new providers end to end, so other teams never have to think about which cloud they are on.
Cluster and cell lifecycle: Own the systems that provision, upgrade, recover, and decommission Kubernetes clusters, node pools, and Temporal Cloud cells. Become the engineer who can implement any component in this area.
Workflows and APIs: Write the Go services, Kubernetes controllers, and Temporal workflows behind automated cell creation, component deployment, and cloud resource provisioning. Keep the APIs straightforward for the teams that use them.
Declarative infrastructure: Ship versioned component definitions that cover Kubernetes workloads and the cloud resources behind them. Build drift detection, change previews, and safe reconciliation so engineers know what is deployed and what is about to change.
Safe change: Build progressive rollouts, rollout sequencing, and change visibility into the platform, and keep blast radius small by design. Estimate the performance and reliability impact of a design with data before it ships.
Reliability and operations: Join the team's on-call rotation and step up during incidents. Get to the bottom of the "mysterious" issues by digging into Kubernetes clusters, workflow histories, and dashboards, then fix the system so it doesn't happen again. Actively prevent tech debt and cut toil with better runbooks, metrics, and automation.
Ownership and growth: Lead projects on your own, from clarifying fuzzy requirements to pulling in the right people to a well-tested launch. Contribute to the design of the platform's major pieces, write clear design docs, and be someone others seek out for code reviews on significant changes. Mentor less senior engineers and help interview the next ones.
Collaboration: Partner with Traffic, Control Plane, Developer Productivity, Security, and service owners to deliver secure defaults.
