Own the next phase of Temporal Nexus, expanding durable connectivity across teams and AI-enabled systems.

Nexus product strategy and roadmap: set priorities that reinforce Nexus as a durable connectivity layer across teams, namespaces, services, and AI systems
Drive in-flight execution: push completion of ongoing work including the new Nexus developer experience, Standalone Nexus Operations, connector foundations, caller identity, rate limits, and payload encryption
Customer discovery and evidence: partner with design partners and strategic customers including Netflix, Duolingo, and Miro
Developer and operator experience: align SDK ergonomics, schema-first contracts, codegen, service discovery, security, visibility, and control-plane requirements
Cross-functional launch and enablement: ensure internal stakeholders understand the problems Nexus solves and can sell, deploy, and support it
Success metrics: define adoption and momentum measures such as activated accounts, completed Nexus operations, shared-service usage, SDK coverage, design-partner progress, and field readiness

Staff-level product judgment: 8+ years in product management or equivalent experience delivering outcomes from ambiguous and technical strategy
Strong technical depth: ability to reason about distributed systems, workflow orchestration, service-to-service communication, APIs, SDKs, identity, and authorization
Developer-platform experience: experience building or productizing infrastructure/platforms/integrations across areas such as APIs, SDKs, service mesh, API gateways, or cloud developer products
Customer and field orientation: comfortable working directly with senior technical customers and enabling GTM teams on a complex product
Excellent writing and narrative skills: produce crisp strategy docs, roadmap narratives, launch materials, and decision memos
Execution discipline: inherit complex roadmaps, clarify ownership, unblock decisions, and keep teams focused

Experience with Temporal, workflow orchestration, durable execution, service mesh, API gateways, or distributed systems
Experience with schema registries, code generation, SDK design, or developer portals
Experience with AI infrastructure, agent platforms, MCP/tool registries, or agentic systems
Prior DevRel, Solutions Architecture, technical marketing, or partner-facing product experience

Nexus moves from past GA to breadth: adoption is real, and the next challenge is expansion across more teams, accounts, and use cases
Foundation is landing now: developer experience, connector foundations, and operator controls unlock near-term momentum
Next wave is strategically important: Connector Ecosystem, Service Hub, and Agentic Communication Fabric may shape how Temporal fits into modern AI and service-connectivity stack
Define an important product category: Nexus sits between durable execution, service-to-service communication, platform engineering, and AI systems
