About Us

Temporal is an open source programming model that can simplify code, make applications more reliable, and help developers focus on the important things like delivering features faster. We are on a mission to be the reliable foundation of every developer’s toolbox, and are building the team that will make that happen.
 
Our values guide us —they are present in how we show up, make decisions, and work together to make an impact. We’re curious, driven, collaborative, genuine and humble.
 
Temporal is growing and we are looking for those who share our values, challenge 'standard' thinking, and want to influence our future. If you have a passion for improving the developer experience, building world-class open-source software and communities, and want to be a part of our amazing team, we'd love to hear from you!

About the Role

As Senior Product Manager, Investigation & Troubleshooting, you will own the diagnostic experience for Temporal users when things are not working as expected. You'll define how developers debug workflows, trace execution across the distributed system, and integrate with their observability stack. This is high-leverage work: reducing mean-time-to-resolution directly impacts customer trust and developer productivity.

What You'll Do

  • Own the roadmap for workflow debugging and diagnostic tooling, including trace exploration, execution replay, and root cause analysis
  • Drive distributed tracing strategy, enabling customers to correlate Temporal workflows with their broader application traces
  • Define and evolve APM integrations (Datadog, Honeycomb, Dynatrace, etc.) to meet customers where their observability stack already lives
  • Lead AI-assisted diagnostics initiatives for agentic workflows, helping developers understand complex execution patterns
  • Partner with SDK teams to surface actionable debugging context from workers and activities
  • Build the "why did my workflow fail?" experience across UI, CLI, and programmatic access
  • Collaborate with customers running mission-critical workloads to understand their incident response and debugging workflows

What You Bring

  • Deep expertise in observability systems with practical experience in distributed tracing, log correlation, and debugging tools
  • Background in APM/observability platforms or developer tools where diagnostic experience is core to the product
  • Familiarity with OpenTelemetry, distributed systems debugging, and the challenges of correlating events across service boundaries
  • Proven track record delivering developer-facing diagnostic tooling that reduces time-to-resolution
  • Experience with AI/ML applications in observability or debugging contexts is a plus
  • A developer-empathetic, customer-focused product management style 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.
Compensation ranges reflect salary and commission compensation (when applicable) across several geographic markets. Employment offers carefully consider multiple factors, including prior experience, knowledge, expertise, skillset, market location, and job level assessed during the interview process.
