Software Engineering SMTS

The Experience

The Senior Software Engineer role is part of our Orchestration-as-a-Service team within the Availability Cloud organization. The team provides Temporal, the open source orchestration platform, as a managed service within Salesforce infrastructure.

This is a critical tier-0 service used by teams across every Salesforce cloud. Temporal is positioned as the standard platform for business orchestration in Hyperforce and for Day 2 operations on non-Hyperforce substrates.

We are building a trusted, safe-by-default platform on which all infrastructure operational automation can be built and run, balancing innovation, developer and business agility, and generalization of the platform.

We are growing our engineering presence in Dublin and are looking for an engineer to help us scale this service.

• Own the development and operations of a critical tier-0 service
• Understand the scale and availability challenges of the service as more customers onboard and their needs grow
• Innovate to proactively identify and prevent drops in availability and reliability
• Build and deploy backend APIs on public cloud infrastructure, and get up to speed on Hyperforce architecture by building a working Temporal worker and workflow
