About the Role: Software Engineer, Infrastructure

At Camunda, the CI/CD infrastructure platform is treated as an internal product. The mission is to build a Golden Path platform, enabling over 150 engineers across more than 20 teams to deliver with world-class velocity and uncompromising quality at scale. This allows Camunda engineers to focus on building agentic technologies that will define market leadership.

Camunda is approaching a pivotal phase with an upcoming quality surge that will significantly increase testing volume and engineering throughput.

What You Will Do:

• Develop, operate, and scale Camunda’s high-load Infrastructure Platform, used daily by product teams for thousands of jobs.
• Ensure new product versions are reliably built and distributed to customers via artifact storages.
• Identify and remove developer pain points in infrastructure, iterating towards smoother, more sensible processes.
• Act as a service-oriented partner to product teams, providing platform capabilities, advising on best practices, and supporting tool adoption.
• Contribute to and help shape the team’s roadmap, technical decisions, and long-term vision for the platform.

What You Will Bring to the Role:

Must Haves:

• Growth mindset: Curious to learn, share knowledge, and continuously improve systems and ways of working.
• Core infrastructure experience in:
  • Container orchestration (production experience with Kubernetes required).
  • Infrastructure as Code (e.g., Terraform, Pulumi, Ansible).
  • Cloud providers (e.g., GCP, AWS, Azure).
• Experience in high-scale CI systems (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, with self-hosted runners).
• Programming skills: Comfortable with at least one general-purpose language (e.g., Python, Groovy, Go, JS, and/or Java).
• Proven ability to thrive in remote, asynchronous teams and work effectively across teams.
• Comfortable with using AI-first approaches in engineering.

Nice to Haves:

• A background in backend engineering.
• Natural interest in a wide spectrum of technical topics (T-shaped profile).
• Enjoy defining, documenting, and driving technical best practices within the team and across the department.
