You’ll own the custom persistence stack for Temporal Cloud which includes a Write Ahead Log, various metadata stores (Cassandra, etcd), multi-level caches, tiered storage etc.
What You'll Do
Design & build distributed data systems – craft APIs, schemas, and replication paths that keep petabytes of workflow history durable and query-able. Clearly document design choices and operational knowledge to successfully deploy and run service with those features.
