About the Role
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
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
