What is a Part Time Backend Developer?

A Part Time Backend Developer is a software professional who focuses on building and maintaining the server-side logic, databases, and APIs of web applications, but works fewer hours than a full-time developer, typically on a flexible schedule. They are responsible for ensuring that the application's backend functions smoothly, securely, and efficiently. Part time backend developers often collaborate with frontend developers, designers, and project managers to deliver robust and scalable solutions. This role is ideal for those who need a flexible work arrangement, such as students, parents, or freelancers.

What is the difference between Part Time Backend Developer vs Part Time Frontend Developer?

AspectPart Time Backend DeveloperPart Time Frontend Developer
Required SkillsServer-side languages (e.g., Python, Java), databases, APIsHTML, CSS, JavaScript, UI frameworks
Work EnvironmentBackend systems, server management, database integrationClient-side interfaces, user experience design
Common UsageBuilding and maintaining server logic, data storageDesigning and implementing website interfaces

Both roles often require similar certifications like coding bootcamps or relevant degrees. They operate in tech companies, startups, and agencies, frequently part-time. The main difference lies in their focus: backend developers handle server and database work, while frontend developers focus on user interfaces and experience.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Part Time Backend Developer, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Part Time Backend Developer, a solid grasp of programming languages like Python, Java, or Node.js, along with database management and API development experience, is essential. Familiarity with tools such as Git for version control, Docker for containerization, and knowledge of cloud platforms or relevant certifications are typically required. Strong problem-solving abilities, time management, and effective communication are standout soft skills for this role. These skills ensure reliable, scalable backend systems and efficient collaboration with teams, even within limited work hours.

What are some common challenges faced by part-time backend developers, and how can they be addressed?

Part-time backend developers often face challenges related to time management and staying aligned with the rest of the development team. Since backend projects can involve complex systems and ongoing collaboration, it's important to maintain clear communication and regularly sync with team members. Utilizing project management and code documentation tools, as well as attending key stand-up meetings, can help part-time developers stay informed and productive. Additionally, clearly defining deliverables and setting realistic deadlines can ensure a smooth workflow despite limited hours.

Job description

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:
The Principal Developer Advocate, AI is a senior individual-contributor practitioner who serves as a crucial voice for Temporal in the AI engineering community. You'll earn developers' trust in this emerging discipline by shipping standout technical content, building real relationships across the AI ecosystem, and sharing what you've learned from your hard-won perspective as someone who has built and operated production AI systems.
The world's best AI products are built on Temporal. We give developers the primitives to build reliable, long-running, stateful AI applications, and scale them faster than ever before. In this role, you'll help bring Temporal to the next generation of AI engineers. As a senior individual contributor, you'll be a leader in the developer community and within our company, contributing to our AI strategy and roadmap.
What You'll Do:
  • Represent Temporal at industry conferences, meetups, and workshops, delivering compelling talks on reliability, state, and orchestration in agentic systems
  • Create influential, high-quality content for AI engineers and backend developers (blogs, tutorials, guides, talks, and videos) that demonstrates Temporal's essential role in reliable AI systems
  • Forge strong ties with AI framework maintainers, open-source communities, and ecosystem partners to strengthen Temporal's position as critical infrastructure for AI
  • Act as a key community voice, gathering feedback from AI engineers and channeling it back to Product and Engineering to shape the roadmap and sharpen Temporal's developer experience
  • Work closely with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Sales to align content and engagement with new releases and our go-to-market strategy in the AI space
  • Informally mentor peers and raise the bar for your team's collective AI engineering skills
What You'll Bring:
  • 8+ years as a software engineer, most recently as an AI engineer with a clear focus on getting AI into production
  • A track record of shipping AI products or features to production. You understand the discipline of building, evaluating, deploying, and operating real systems, not just prototyping
  • Existing, demonstrable visibility in the AI engineering community. What that looks like could vary: a popular blog, YouTube channel, podcast, widely used open-source project, social media following, or your role as a frequent conference speaker
  • A track record of compelling technical talks and writing which clearly establishes your credibility in the eyes of an aspiring AI engineer
  • Hands-on depth with the tools and patterns of production AI: LLMs and agents, retrieval-augmented generation, function calling, evaluation and observability, and inference in real systems, including working knowledge of AI agent frameworks and the major model-provider APIs
  • You're likely proficient in Python and/or TypeScript; polyglots who pick up languages easily are welcome
  • Curiosity that keeps you on top of rapidly evolving AI research and tooling
Nice to Have:
  • A strong public platform. The kind that makes you recognizable online or when attending a conference
  • Experience carrying the pager for production AI systems
  • Experience building or contributing to AI agent frameworks or toolkits
  • Familiarity with Temporal. Even better: experience building AI products or features using Temporal
  • Open-source contributions or stewardship in the AI or distributed systems communities
  • Prior experience in a Developer Relations or Developer Advocacy role

Compensation:
  • The estimated pay range for this role is $260,000 - $325,000.
  • Additionally, this role is eligible to participate in Temporal's equity plan.

Compensation ranges reflect salary and commission compensation (when applicable) 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.

  • Unlimited PTO, 12 Holidays + 2 Floating Holidays
  • 100% Premiums Coverage for Medical, Dental, and Vision
