[Hiring] Product Builder @Camunda

Role Description

At Camunda, we are evolving how software gets built. We are looking for a Product Builder to help shape the future of Operate by combining product thinking, user empathy, UX judgment, and hands-on execution. This is a high-ownership role inside our Products organization for someone who wants to move quickly, work directly with customers and forward deployed engineers, and build in an AI-first environment. The role will start with a strong focus on the web app experience in Operate. In the future, builders will contribute across the full stack, enabling faster end-to-end product delivery.

What You Will Do

• Discover and clarify meaningful user problems in Operate by working closely with customers, forward deployed engineers, and internal stakeholders.
• Shape product direction through practical judgment, fast iteration, and a strong focus on solving the underlying problem rather than only implementing requests.
• Prototype, build, harden, ship, and iterate on product improvements across the Operate experience.
• Use AI tools effectively to accelerate first drafts, implementation steps, iteration, and learning while maintaining a strong quality bar.
• Work closely with other builders and product strategy counterparts to turn ideas into shipped outcomes.
• Improve the speed, quality, and effectiveness of how the pod delivers product end-to-end.

What You Will Bring to the Role

• Experience shipping product directly in a software environment.
• Ability to work fluidly across product thinking, user experience, and hands-on delivery.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity and turning open-ended problems into practical next steps.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills in a remote-first, pod-based environment.
• Curiosity about users, fast learning loops, and a bias toward improving the product through iteration.

Must Haves

• Hands-on experience building and shipping product in a software context, not only coordinating roadmap or requirements.
• Strong AI-native delivery habits: able to use AI tools effectively for first drafts, implementation steps, and iteration, while reviewing and improving weak output rather than accepting it.
• Ability to describe and shape intended user experience clearly, including flow, hierarchy, states, copy, and accessibility expectations.
• Strong product and customer judgment: able to understand the user problem behind a request, use lightweight evidence and customer feedback, and make pragmatic decisions that create broader product value.
• Sound technical judgment within an established architecture, including the ability to test what was built, trace issues, understand frontend/backend boundaries, and contribute beyond a pure frontend scope over time.

Nice to Haves

• Experience with workflow software, orchestration, operations tooling, or similarly technical product surfaces.
• Experience working in small, high-autonomy pods with broad ownership across discovery, design, and delivery.
• Familiarity with process monitoring, incident handling, or operational user experiences.
• Ability to capture validation learnings clearly, distinguish signal from noise, and help improve lightweight product validation practices.

What We Have to Offer

• Competitive, fair, and transparent compensation based on location.
• Annual Total Target Cash (base salary + 100% variable target) varies by location:
• United States: $119,900.00 to $193,200.00
• United Kingdom: £75,300.00 to £123,800.00
• Singapore: S$148,900.00 to S$223,300.00
• Equity through our Virtual Stock Option Plan (VSOP).
• Remote & Flexible work options with home office budget and flexible time off.
• In-person connection through annual kickoff events and team offsites.
• Access to locally tailored healthcare and global mental wellbeing support.
• Retirement and pension plans, plus life and disability insurance where relevant.
• Up to $/€/£1,000 per year for self-driven learning: courses, certifications, books.
