About the Role
At Camunda, our CI/CD infrastructure platform is treated as an internal product. Our mission is to build a platform that offers a Golden Path, enabling 150+ engineers across 20+ teams to deliver with world-class velocity and uncompromising quality at scale, that will allow Camunda engineers to focus on building the agentic technologies that will define our market leadership. We are approaching a pivotal phase: an upcoming quality surge that will significantly increase testing volume and engineering throughput. Our platform must scale seamlessly, without increasing developer toil. As an Infrastructure Engineer, you will be at the core of this transformation: designing, implementing, and running the CI/CD and artifact delivery systems. You’ll use your experience across cloud, Kubernetes, and GitHub Actions to scale our CI platform, and the artifact distribution systems. This role does not have on-calls.What you Will Do

- Ensure new product versions are reliably built and distributed to customers via our artifact storages.
- Identify and remove developer pain points in our infrastructure, iterating toward smoother, more sensible processes.
- Act as a service-oriented partner to product teams: provide platform capabilities, advise on best practices, and support them in adopting our tooling.
- Contribute to and help shape the team’s roadmap, technical decisions, and long-term vision for the platform.

- Remote & Flexible: Work from anywhere with the setup that suits you, home office budget, co-working space support, and flexible time off to recharge when you need it.
- In Person Connection: We invest in meaningful face time through our Annual Kickoff (Vienna in 2025, Madrid in 2026!), team offsites, and Camundi Connection Budgets, including contributing to meetups while travelling,, and local gatherings with fellow Camundi.
- Health & Wellbeing: Access locally tailored healthcare, Modern Health for global mental wellbeing, and our Live Well Lifestyle Spending Account (LSA), a flexible, global benefit that puts you in control of your whole life, not just work, from: staying active, to caring for family, exploring personal passions, meaningful experiences, and investing in your financial wellbeing.

- Build a mini‑project on Camunda Cloud: Sign up for a free Camunda Cloud trial, create a simple BPMN workflow that integrates an AI‑powered microservice (e.g., a sentiment‑analysis API). Deploy it with Docker/Kubernetes, expose metrics via Prometheus, and push the code to a public GitHub repo. Include a README that explains the architecture, the infra‑as‑code (Terraform or Helm) you used, and how you ensured auditability and governance—exactly the concerns Camunda emphasizes.
- Show concrete experience with Java‑based infra stacks: The role leans heavily on Spring Boot, gRPC, and reactive programming. In your résumé and interview, cite at least two recent projects where you built or maintained production‑grade Java services, configured CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, Jenkins, or GitLab CI), and automated provisioning with tools like Terraform or Ansible. Quantify impact (e.g., “Reduced deployment time by 40 % by migrating to Helm charts”).
- Demonstrate observability & reliability mindset: Prepare a short case study (slide deck or markdown) describing how you implemented distributed tracing (OpenTelemetry), centralized logging (ELK/EFK), and alerting for a high‑traffic system. Highlight any SLA/SLO definitions you set and how you used them to drive incident response—Camunda’s interviewers will probe for these specifics.
- Highlight remote‑first collaboration skills: Camunda is fully remote and global. Mention your mastery of async communication tools (Slack, Teams, Confluence) and synchronous ones (Zoom, Miro). Provide examples of how you ran effective design reviews across time zones, used code‑review bots, and maintained documentation that kept “everyone on the same page” without real‑time meetings.
- Prepare a focused salary negotiation packet: Research Camunda’s typical remote engineering band (e.g., $130‑$170k base + equity). Compile a one‑page sheet with your market data (Glassdoor, Levels.fyi), your quantifiable achievements, and a clear ask (base, bonus, RSU vesting). Bring it to the final offer call and be ready to discuss how your expertise in cloud‑native infra and Camunda’s workflow engine adds premium value.
