- Guide international expansion from a finance and accounting perspective: entity structuring, local statutory and tax compliance, and building out finance operations in new markets
- Partner with the CFO and cross-functional leaders (Legal, Sales, Revenue Operations) on deal structuring, contract review, and revenue recognition for new consumption-based pricing models
- Build, mentor, and scale a high-performing global accounting and tax team as the organization grows
- Deliver accurate, timely financial reporting to executive leadership, the board of directors, and investors
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.
