Staff Product Manager, AI Ecosystem

About the Role AI teams are assembling their stacks from a fast-moving set of best-in-class tools — model providers, agent SDKs, evaluation and observability platforms, cloud services. Temporal is the durable execution layer that ties those pieces together and makes them production-grade. That position is a strategic advantage, and it needs a dedicated owner. As Staff Product Manager, AI Ecosystem, you own Temporal's integrations and partnerships product portfolio — the surfaces where Temporal meets the rest of the AI stack. You'll define how Temporal is better together with best-in-class tools (eg, from OpenAI, Google, AWS, Braintrust, and more), and how Temporal becomes the durable foundation developers reach for from prototype to production. This is a role where shipping the integration code is just the beginning. You'll drive business leverage through the narrative, the reference architectures, the enablement, and the sustained momentum that make an integration matter to customers and to the field. You'll partner with Engineering, Product Marketing, Partnerships, Sales, Solutions Architecture, and DevRel to take products to market and drive real adoption.

You take an ambiguous strategic question and turn it into a roadmap and shipped outcomes with minimal direction. 8+ years in product management or an equivalent track record. Deep AI fluency. You are hands-on with the AI tooling landscape (eg, agent frameworks and SDKs, model providers, eval and observability tools) and you have an opinionated, well-reasoned view of where it's going. If you're not touching this technology regularly, you'll fall behind, and [... source excerpt omitted ...] tion to sell something new. Technical literacy. You reason fluently about AI systems, and can hold your own in a design conversation with Staff engineers. You don't need to write production code. Narrative-grade writing. You build stories. You can write the document that aligns an organization and changes what it invests in.
