• Implement SIM Deactivation workflow with compensation and rollback logic.
• Implement Plan Change workflow (OCS quota update + PCRF policy change).
• Define workflow versioning strategy (Temporal GetVersion API or similar) — foundational for long-term stability.
• Lead another developer on development tasks and code reviews from week one.
• Order-triggered workflows: Order DB → Temporal/similar signal handler.
• Network trigger handling: location updates → workflow signals via Kong API Gateway.

Requirements:

Must Have

• 4–6 years backend software development experience.
• Required: Hands-on experience with a workflow orchestration engine.
  
  

– Temporal.io strongly preferred — production experience with workers, activities, signals, timers.

– Camunda, Apache Airflow, or equivalent accepted if strong fundamentals.

• Go or Java — must be comfortable building production services in at least one.
• REST API design and implementation (designing APIs consumed by Kong API Gateway).
• PostgreSQL — schema design, indexes, query optimisation for large datasets (10M+ rows).
• BSS/OSS domain knowledge: provisioning flows, SIM lifecycle, telecom service activation.
• Kubernetes — deploying and operating workloads on K8s (not just writing YAML).
• Experience with event-driven architectures using RabbitMQ, Kafka, or Redis Pub/Sub .
• Experience designing for failure: retry policies, idempotency, compensation logic, DLQ.
• Ability to lead a junior/mid developer day-to-day Fluent English .
  
  

Strong Advantage

• Direct Temporal.io production experience (SDK, worker configuration, namespace management).
• Telecom network element experience: HSS, OCS, PCRF, SMSC interfaces.
• Diameter protocol (Ro/Gy/Gx) — even basic familiarity is valuable.
• Experience with mock-first development and contract testing.
• Prometheus + Grafana — instrumenting and monitoring workflow engines.
  
  

Nice to Have

• Experience at a telecom operator, MVNO, or telecom vendor (Ericsson, Nokia, Huawei, etc.).
• Knowledge of eSIM / GSMA SGP.22 standard.
• Python — for tooling, scripting, test automation.
