About This Role:

CrowdStrikes engineering organization depends on shared infrastructure platforms that power critical product capabilities. The Temporal Platform team owns a production workflow orchestration system that serves engineering teams across the organization.

Youll help operate and evolve our internal Temporal infrastructure, a stateful, distributed system running on Kubernetes across multiple regions. The work spans day to day operations, automation, performance tuning and capacity planning. Youll learn how to run complex infrastructure at scale while working alongside experienced platform engineers who will help you grow into broader ownership over time.

This is a growth oriented role. Were looking for someone early in their platform engineering journey whos ready to build operational depth, develop automation skills and understand what it takes to run production infrastructure that teams depend on.

What Youll Do:

- Operate Temporal infrastructure in production - deploy updates, monitor cluster health, respond to alerts, and maintain availability across multiple environments using Helm, Kubernetes and FluxCD

- Automate operational work - write scripts and workflows that make deployments, upgrades, scaling operations, and troubleshooting repeatable and safe; reduce manual toil over time

- Support capacity planning and performance tuning - track resource utilization, identify bottlenecks, tune configuration for better performance and contribute to capacity forecasts under guidance

- Build observability - instrument services with metrics and logs, improve dashboards, and refine alerting so the team can catch problems before they impact users

- Contribute to on call rotation - participate in incident response, learn how to triage and escalate issues effectively, write runbooks that help the next person on-call

- Learn GitOps workflows - work with FluxCD to manage infrastructure-as-code, submit pull requests for configuration changes,



and understand how declarative deployment pipelines work

- Troubleshoot operational issues - investigate deployment failures, connectivity problems, performance degradations, and work with teammates to determine root cause and preventive fixes

- Partner with consuming teams - help internal engineers onboard to Temporal, answer questions, debug integration issues, and contribute to documentation that makes adoption easier

- Grow your infrastructure skills - work with PostgreSQL, AWS/GCP, Kubernetes networking, Helm chart management, certificate rotation, secret management and distributed systems operations under mentorship

What Youll Need:

- 3+ years in DevOps, SRE, platform engineering or infrastructure roles - youve worked on production systems and understand the basics of running services reliably

- Kubernetes fundamentals - youve deployed services to Kubernetes, understand pods/deployments/services, and can debug basic cluster issues; you dont need deep expertise but should be comfortable navigating kubectl and reviewing YAML

- Helm experience - youve used Helm to deploy applications, understand charts and values files, and can troubleshoot failed releases

- Some infrastructure-as-code experience - youve used tools like Terraform, Ansible, or GitOps workflows (FluxCD, ArgoCD) to manage infrastructure declaratively rather than clicking in consoles

- Cloud platform exposure - youve worked with AWS or GCP in some capacity; you understand basic compute, networking, and storage primitives but dont need to be an expert

- Scripting ability - you can write scripts (Bash,



Python, Go) to automate repetitive tasks and build simple tooling

- Basic understanding of stateful systems - youve worked with databases (PostgreSQL preferred) or other persistent services and understand backups, schema management, and connection handling at a foundational level

- Willingness to learn and ask for help - youre comfortable saying "I dont know" and diving into unfamiliar territory with support from teammates

What Success Looks Like:

In your first few months:

- You can deploy Temporal upgrades across environments with confidence

- youve automated at least one recurring operational task

- You respond to on-call pages effectively and write explicit incident summaries

- You've contributed meaningful improvements to dashboards or runbooks

- Internal teams reach out to you directly for help with Temporal questions

Over your first year:

- You own end-to-end operations for specific Temporal components or environments

- You proactively identify performance issues and propose tuning strategies

- Youre contributing to capacity planning and cost optimization discussions

- Youre helping onboard new engineers to the teams operational practices

Bonus Points:

- Experience operating workflow orchestration platforms (Temporal, Airflow, Prefect, Cadence)

- Experience with FluxCD or ArgoCD in production

- Exposure to distributed tracing or observability platforms

- Go experience (our services and many consuming applications are written in Go)

- Previous work on internal platform teams or DevOps infrastructure roles

- Understanding of PostgreSQL performance tuning and operational best practices
