Who you are
- 8+ years of product management experience
- Deep AI and agent domain knowledge - you're building with frontier models daily and have an opinionated view of where the industry is headed
- Developer empathy - deep understanding of how developers discover, adopt, and debug software
- Platform product thinking - experience designing APIs, primitives, or developer platforms, not just end-user features
- Experience shipping developer tools
- Distributed systems literacy - able to reason fluently about state, execution, fault tolerance, and observability with engineering partners

- Own the product experience for developers building and running AI agents on Temporal
- Shape the strategy for internal agent platforms - companies standing up centralized teams to empower their orgs to build agents on Temporal
- Drive the multi-agent orchestration roadmap: agent-calls-agent patterns, handoff protocols, agent teams
- Establish success metrics and developer feedback loops for agent platform adoption and satisfaction
- Sequence the roadmap and frame investments across multiple work streams
- Partner closely with AI engineering
- Work cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, and Developer Relations to ensure developers succeed end-to-end
Our take
The growing complexity of modern software systems places a strain on developers, making applications harder to plan, build, and test. While cloud-native services simplify experiences for end users, they introduce new challenges for developers, like around managing state in distributed, microservices-based architectures. Temporal Technologies addresses this problem with an MIT-licensed platform that identifies and manages applications tate, so developers can built reliable, scalable systems with more confidence.
The company offers an open source microservices orchestration platform, giving developers more time to code, while Temporal manages the scalability and reliability. The company’s technology is used to solve state management at an impressive list of cloud and tech companies, including Netflix, Doordash, Snap, and Google Cloud.
The company has achieved unicorn status in 2022 and now has a valuation of over $2.5B. Its most recent funding came in at $146M and with this, Temporal plans to move into the next chapter in its space: AI, as well as focusing on R&D, putting it in a good position within the evolving market.
