 * Experience building and operating Temporal applications.

## Description

* Develop and operate our Agent Platform for deploying, running, evaluating, governing, and improving agents and agentic workflows.
 * Establish and operate the AI Infrastructure that agents depend on: LLM and MCP gateways with guardrails, fallback, usage and cost controls, and model rollout policies.
 * Build and operate agents and workflows that carry engineering work from issue to production and business work from trigger to outcome, with humans governing the boundaries.
 * Own our Developer Infrastructure (Source Control and CI) and build the developer tools that improve builder flow and reduce friction across the company.
 * Partner with teams across Engineering, Product, Sales, and G&A to understand where AI could accelerate their work or improve the quality of outcomes.
 * Drive adoption of agents and agentic tooling across the company, and own the best practices and enablement materials that help builders succeed using the paved roads.
 * Build measurement and feedback loops (usage, reliability, and cost) to quantify the productivity the platform unlocks and guide the roadmap.
 * Treat Temporal as customer zero: turn what we learn into validated requirements for Temporal Cloud, the SDKs, and our Agent Harness, and contribute to an open-source reference architecture that customer platform teams can adopt.
 * Participate in on-call to support internal users.
