Responsibilities

• Own the product strategy and roadmap for Temporal’s developer lifecycle and tooling charter
• Define developer experience goals for onboarding, local development, testing, replay, code evolution, deploy safety, and CLI workflows, then measure progress against them
• Translate customer, field, support, and open-source community signals into tooling bets that make Temporal easier to start with, test, debug, evolve, and deploy
• Partner deeply with engineering and SDK teams to ship tooling across the CLI, local development environment, testing infrastructure, replay workflows, and deploy safety tools
• Make opinionated product calls about where Temporal should provide built-in tooling, where we should integrate with existing developer workflows, and where documentation, templates, or examples are the right answer
• Shape a coherent cross-SDK experience across Go, Java, TypeScript, Python, .NET, and other supported languages without blocking language-specific ergonomics
• Define the external story for Temporal’s developer lifecycle through positioning, documentation, examples, launch narratives, and close partnership with Developer Relations, Marketing, and field teams

• High standards for developer experience across CLIs, SDKs, APIs, documentation, examples, onboarding paths, and production workflows
• Ability to translate emerging developer workflows, including AI-assisted coding and agentic tools, into requirements for CLIs, testing, deploy safety, and documentation
• Ability to balance open-source developer experience, Temporal Cloud adoption, and enterprise production needs
• Strong product storytelling for technical audiences, with the ability to explain not just what changed, but how developers should use it and why it matters
• Hands-on experience building or contributing to a CLI, testing framework, CI/CD system, SDK, or developer tool
• Experience with distributed systems, workflow engines, durable execution, or event-driven platforms
