What You’ll Bring

• Reside in Singapore and are eligible to work without sponsorship.
• Exceptional technical communication skills, including presenting, whiteboarding, and writing.
• Deep understanding of distributed system technologies, design principles, and best practices.
• Proficiency in building application prototypes and providing design, development, build, and deployment guidance using one or more of Temporal’s supported languages: Java, Golang, TypeScript, Python, C# or PHP.
• Firm grasp of operational considerations in production environments, such as security, reliability, performance, cost management, and operations.
• Ability to provide insightful advice on architectural topics, including application patterns and platform architectures.
• Experience with at least one major cloud provider and familiarity with commonly used application development and production services.
• Serve as a strategic technical advisor to Sales Account Executives, assisting with scoping and sizing opportunities and offering guidance on technical fit and challenges.

Compensation

• The estimated pay range for this role is SGD 238,000-280,000.
• This is a base‑salary plus variable role with a 70/30 split.

Compensation ranges reflect salary and commission compensation 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.

Benefits

• Unlimited PTO, 12 holidays + 2 floating holidays.
• 100% premium coverage for medical, dental, and vision.
• AD&D, LT & ST disability, and life insurance (standard & supplemental available).
