Senior Engineering Manager - Test Systems & Tooling

Temporal’s reliability is fundamental to why customers choose us—and as our customers run increasingly critical workloads on the platform, our ability to confidently test changes must scale with that responsibility.

As a Senior Engineering Manager on the Test Systems & Tooling team, you will lead a team responsible for building the shared systems, environments, and tooling that enable Temporal engineers to validate the platform under production-like and adverse conditions. You’ll help ensure system-level testing gaps don’t fall through organizational boundaries by driving cross-team alignment, clear ownership, and measurable improvements in pre-production confidence.

Lead and grow the Test Systems & Tooling team: Hire, coach, and develop engineers building shared testing capabilities used across Engineering.

Make production-like testing practical: Improve the ability for engineers to create test environments that resemble production topology, configuration, scale, and behavior—so reproducing issues and validating changes is faster and more reliable.

Enable production-representative workload testing: Build or evolve capabilities such as workload replay, realistic workload generation, multi-tenant testing, load testing, and stress testing to surface behaviors that only emerge at scale.
