Job description
SUMMARY
As the Senior Product Manager focused on worker scalability & compute, you will own how developers deploy, host, and scale Temporal workers. You'll shape the compute runtime story for Temporal, from self-managed Kubernetes deployments to fully serverless execution. This role directly impacts developer experience: how easy it is to get workflows running, version them safely, and scale them automatically.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Own the roadmap for worker deployment options, including self-hosted and serverless execution models
- Lead worker versioning initiatives to enable safe, zero-downtime code deployments with excellent developer experience
- Evolve the Temporal Worker Controller for Kubernetes to provide worker management capabilities to the Kubernetes ecosystem
- Define the path for serverless worker execution, removing infrastructure management from the developer experience entirely
- Partner with engineering to improve worker tuning, resource efficiency, and scaling behavior across diverse compute environments
- Collaborate with customers and community to understand worker deployment pain points and validate solution directions
WHAT YOU BRING
- Strong background in compute platforms: serverless (Lambda, Cloud Run, App Engine), container orchestration (Kubernetes, ECS), or similar infrastructure
- Experience with Version Control, Continuous Integration, and Continuous Deployment systems
- Experience building developer-facing products where deployment simplicity and operational excellence are key differentiators
- Familiarity with autoscaling systems, workload scheduling, and resource optimization at scale
- Understanding of code versioning, deployment strategies, and the developer experience challenges of long-running stateful systems
- Proven ability to translate complex infrastructure capabilities into intuitive developer experiences
- A pragmatic, customer-focused product management approach with strong technical communication skills
COMPENSATION
- The estimated pay range for this role is $180,000 - $230,000, depending on qualifications and location.
- Additionally, this role is eligible to participate in Temporal's equity plan.
