Lead and grow a high‑performing team responsible for the modelling canvas used to design and orchestrate processes (BPMN and related notations), ensuring the experience is intuitive, reliable, and evolves with customer needs
Own delivery and quality for your area: align work to a clear roadmap, balance new feature development with UX and technical excellence, and make sure we ship incrementally, safely, and predictably
Partner closely with Product Management and Design to shape the next-generation canvas vision, clarify requirements, make pragmatic trade‑offs, and ensure we’re solving real customer problems, not just building features
Support operations and incident response for your services: work with your team to define on‑call / escalation practices, respond to issues, and communicate clearly with stakeholders when something breaks or needs to change
Develop and enable your team members, providing regular feedback, coaching, and growth opportunities so they can expand their skills, take on more complex work, and do their best work at Camunda
Contribute to hiring and engineering culture by partnering with Talent Acquisition, designing fair, skills‑based interviews, and sharing best practices with other managers in Engineering

Solid understanding of modern engineering practices (e.g., code review, automated testing, continuous delivery, observability) and how to apply them pragmatically within a team
Comfort with incident and escalation management: you know how to help teams prioritize, respond under pressure, and communicate clearly and transparently with internal stakeholders
Strong communication and collaboration skills in a remote‑first setting, including the ability to give and receive candid feedback, align people around goals, and keep stakeholders informed without unnecessary meetings

Background working on highly interactive front‑end applications (e.g., TypeScript/React or similar modern web stacks) in partnership with UX
Experience leading the development of user-facing authoring tools, with direct responsibility for integrating AI-driven capabilities (e.g. intelligent assistance, content generation, validation, or automation)
Experience working in or with distributed, multi‑team product organizations, where shared components (like a common canvas) are used across multiple products
Experience with encouraging the adoption of AI usage within their organization
