About this job

ROLE SUMMARY Temporal’s reliability is foundational to our value proposition, and as more customers run mission-critical workloads on Temporal, we need the ability to validate changes under production-like conditions and realistic failure modes before they reach production. As a Staff Software Engineer on the Test Systems & Tooling team, you will lead technical initiatives that make sophisticated system-level testing practical across Engineering—spanning production-representative environments, workload replay/generation, and repeatable failure-mode testing. You’ll build platforms and tooling that enable teams to reproduce and prevent the kinds of issues that only emerge from complex interactions between workload, scale, configuration, and multi-tenant behavior.

This is a short summary.
