Senior Product Builder

At Camunda, we are evolving how software gets built. We are looking for a Senior Product Builder to help shape the future of the Connectors Experience 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 can independently take a vague problem, define what success looks like, and turn it into a shipped outcome - working directly with customers and forward deployed engineers, and building in an AI-first environment. The role will start with a strong focus on the web app experience in Hub and Canvas (Web Modeler & Desktop Modeler), while also offering the opportunity over time to contribute across the stack where that enables faster end-to-end product delivery.

What You Will Do:

• Discover and clarify meaningful user problems in the Connectors Experience by working closely with customers, forward deployed engineers, and internal stakeholders

• Define success criteria and scope for features before build starts, rather than only executing a well-defined spec

• 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 Connectors Experience, owning complex features end-to-end

• Use AI tools effectively to accelerate first drafts, implementation steps, iteration, and learning while maintaining a strong quality bar

• Review AI-generated and peer output for maintainability, architectural fit, and UX quality, and share reusable patterns that raise the bar for other builders

• 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

• Participate in an on-call rotation and 3rd level escalation support to ensure the system is meeting its objectives

What You Will Bring to the Role:

• Experience independently shipping complex products in a software environment, not just executing scoped tasks

• 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, including helping others break down and sequence their work

• Curiosity about users, fast learning loops, and a bias toward improving the product through iteration

Must Haves:

• Hands-on experience independently building and shipping complex products in a software context, not only coordinating roadmap or requirements

• Strong AI-native delivery habits: able to run AI-assisted workflows for complex features, diagnosing why AI output is weak and fixing the setup, not only the result

• Ability to describe and shape intended user experience clearly across a full feature or surface area, including flow, hierarchy, states, copy, and accessibility expectations, catching pattern-level UX problems before they reach users

• Strong product and customer judgment: able to turn vague direction into a clear product approach, define success criteria, cut scope intelligently, and know when evidence is strong enough to proceed

• Sound technical judgment within an established architecture: reviews implementation quality beyond “does it work”, evaluates maintainability, test coverage, and architectural fit, and contributes 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 connector building, connector marketplaces and technical partnerships

• Track record independently planning and running validation, synthesizing findings into concrete product or UX changes, and helping improve team practices around lightweight product validation

• Experience mentoring other builders or raising the quality bar beyond your immediate team
