About us
Temporal is an open source programming model that can simplify code, make applications more reliable, and help developers focus on the important things like delivering features faster. We are on a mission to be the reliable foundation of every developer’s toolbox, and are building the team that will make that happen.
Our values guide us — they are present in how we show up, make decisions, and work together to make an impact. We’re curious, driven, collaborative, genuine and humble.
Temporal is growing and we are looking for those who share our values, challenge 'standard' thinking, and want to influence our future. If you have a passion for improving the developer experience, building world-class open-source software and communities, and want to be a part of our amazing team, we’d love to hear from you!
Summary
Temporal is rapidly scaling its field organization, and setting up every new hire to succeed from day one is critical to meeting and exceeding our most ambitious goals.
As a GTM Enablement Manager, Onboarding & Ramp, you'll be joining the GTM Enablement team early in its build, owning the end-to-end onboarding experience for customer-facing roles. This is a building role with a real opportunity to shape and scale the program.
If you're as energized by facilitating engaging learning experiences as building impactful programs that scale and believe there’s always a better way to do enablement - this role is for you.
What You’ll Do
-
Own the onboarding program end-to-end. You'll build and manage the full onboarding lifecycle - from content creation to facilitation to program measurement and iteration. You'll also extract and codify what top performers do well - turning tribal knowledge into repeatable enablement content.
-
Deliver cohort-based onboarding experiences. You'll lead a regular cadence of cohort onboarding experiences - virtual to start and targeting in-person bootcamps at a Temporal hub (Seattle or San Francisco). Sessions will be anchored in interactive workshops, role plays and hands on exercises.
-
Accelerate ramp across roles. You'll drive time-to-productivity improvements through strong onboarding foundations and role-specific ramp paths that extend beyond bootcamp and into the field.
-
Measure and continuously improve onboarding effectiveness. You'll use leading and lagging indicators to continuously iterate on the program, partnering with RevOps, Sales Leadership and our People team to connect the dots between onboarding and business outcomes.
Who You Are (Need to Haves)
-
You’re an incredible facilitator. You light up in front of a room - but your strength is in how you facilitate, not just how you present. You read the audience, draw people in, create space for participation, and adapt on the fly. People walk out of your sessions feeling equipped, not talked at.
-
You've built onboarding programs before. Whether as the first enablement hire or within a growing team, you know how to craft engaging learning experiences and durable programs that drive real impact on new hire ramp and readiness. You bring at least 3-5+ years of relevant experience in sales enablement, sales, or a related GTM role.
-
You understand sales. You've either carried a quota yourself or put in the work to deeply understand how sales teams operate - sellers trust you because you understand their reality and speak their language.
-
You’re a builder. You thrive where things aren't figured out yet. You’re able to move fast while also holding a high bar for the quality of your work, and you bring structure and clarity to everything you ship.
-
You're AI-forward and always raising the bar. The way enablement gets done has fundamentally shifted. You're already using AI - whether it’s to enable the field or focus on the highest leverage work - and you don’t settle for how it’s been done before.
-
You build trust and work well across the org. This is critical to any effective enablement practitioner - especially in this role. You build trust by consistently translating the time and inputs from key stakeholders, partners and SMEs into outputs with outsized impact.
You’ll Thrive in This Role If
-
You have a deep passion for Temporal's mission and what we're building for developers.
-
You've enabled teams selling highly technical or infrastructure products, selling to developers, and/or navigating bottoms-up OSS/PLG and tops-down sales motions.
-
Familiarity with Command of the Message and MEDDPICC.
-
Experience enabling multiple audiences (e.g. Account Executives, Solution Architects, Technical Services, Managers).
Tools You’ll Work With
-
Sales Tech Stack: Salesforce, Gong, Salesforce HVS/Outreach, Slack
-
AI: Gemini, ChatGPT / Claude
-
Enablement Stack: LMS, CMS, KMS
-
Content Creation: Presentations (Google Slides, Gamma), voice & video editing (Descript, ElevenLabs)
-
Ops & Project Management: Airtable, Asana
-
Analytics and Reporting: Omni, Salesforce, Airtable
Note: Experience with these specific tools is helpful but not required. The ability to learn and leverage new tools quickly matters most.
Logistics
-
Location: San Francisco or Seattle preferred. Open to remote candidates who are willing to travel monthly for in-person bootcamp delivery.
-
Travel: Approximately 20% for hub-based candidates (San Francisco or Seattle). For remote candidates, expect higher travel (approximately 30–40%) to support monthly in-person bootcamp delivery at a Temporal hub.
Compensation
-
Base Salary Range: $150,000 to $190,000, depending on qualifications and location
-
Equity Options: Eligible for stock options as part of Temporal’s equity plan

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding OPT Sponsorship as a Gtm Manager
Target companies with H-1B sponsorship history
GTM roles are common at tech companies that regularly sponsor H-1B visas. Search OFLC disclosure data to verify which employers have filed for GTM or go-to-market titles before committing time to their application process.
Clarify your OPT authorization early
Mention your OPT status and authorized end date in your first recruiter conversation. GTM Manager hiring cycles run 4 to 8 weeks, so recruiters need to confirm your timeline aligns before investing in interviews.
Highlight cross-functional impact in your resume
GTM Managers coordinate product, sales, and marketing teams. Quantify launches you owned, pipeline you influenced, or revenue tied to your work. Concrete outcomes reduce perceived sponsorship risk for hiring managers.
Apply for STEM OPT extension if your degree qualifies
A business analytics, information systems, or STEM MBA degree may qualify you for the 24-month STEM extension. That extension gives employers a longer window to sponsor H-1B, making you significantly more attractive to consider.
Focus on Series B through D startups
Mid-stage startups building out GTM functions often need experienced operators and have fewer bureaucratic barriers to sponsorship than large enterprises. They hire GTM Managers actively and tend to move faster through the offer process.
Connect OPT authorization to your H-1B timeline
Be ready to explain exactly when your OPT expires and when you would need H-1B cap filing. Employers evaluating GTM candidates want to understand the sponsorship sequence before extending an offer to avoid operational disruption.
Gtm Manager OPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I work as a GTM Manager on F-1 OPT?
Yes. GTM Manager roles qualify under OPT because the work is directly related to a business, marketing, or related degree. You need an active EAD card before your start date. Most GTM roles are full-time, which satisfies the OPT employment requirement of working at least 20 hours per week.
Do GTM Manager roles typically come with H-1B sponsorship?
Many do, particularly at technology companies and growth-stage startups that regularly hire for GTM functions. Sponsorship is not universal, so it is worth verifying before applying. Migrate Mate lists GTM Manager jobs filtered by OPT and H-1B sponsorship eligibility, which saves significant time during your search.
Does my degree field affect whether I can use OPT for a GTM Manager role?
Yes. USCIS requires your OPT employment to be directly related to your degree. GTM Manager roles typically qualify for graduates with degrees in business administration, marketing, information systems, or MBA programs. If your degree is in an unrelated field, a DSO review is worth completing before you accept an offer.
What happens to my OPT if I lose my GTM Manager job?
F-1 OPT students have a 90-day unemployment limit across the full OPT period. If you leave or are let go from a GTM Manager role, that clock starts immediately. Report the job change to your DSO promptly. Finding a new qualifying role quickly is critical to staying within your authorized period.
Is a GTM Manager role eligible for the STEM OPT extension?
Only if your underlying degree is STEM-designated. A standard business or marketing degree does not qualify, but degrees in information systems, business analytics, or certain STEM MBA programs may. If your employer also qualifies as an E-Verify participant, you can apply for the 24-month extension, giving you more time before H-1B sponsorship is needed.
