Engineering Manager - Infrastructure

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

We are approaching a pivotal phase: an upcoming quality surge that will significantly increase testing volume and engineering throughput. Our platform must scale seamlessly, without increasing developer toil.

We are looking for an Engineering Manager who acts as a servant leader. You will guide a high-leverage remote team of four infrastructure engineers and drive the evolution toward a scalable zero-toil platform.

At the organizational level, you will ensure that the right way is the easy way, serving as an advocate for the engineers who rely on the platform every day.

If you’re excited about building autonomous, high-leverage platform teams at scale, we’d love to talk!
