Maxim Fateev builds massive distributed systems. As the co-founder and CTO of Temporal Technologies, he focuses on abstractions that help developers write reliable code without worrying about infrastructure failures. Before Temporal, he spent two decades shaping backend architectures at Amazon, Microsoft, and Uber—including designing the AWS SQS backend.
His talks explore the evolution of durable execution and remote procedure calls. He breaks down how to bring simplicity to long-running, fault-tolerant operations, recently covering how new open standards like Nexus RPC can equip LLM-powered agents to reliably invoke external tools.
