At Camunda, we approach engineering in a holistic manner. As such, you will form strong partnerships with product management, design, QA, and sales, and work with your peers to not only deliver but directly influence the evolution of our platform to meet our customer’s needs.

Lead medium‑to‑large engineering initiatives (3+ months) end‑to‑end: partner with Product to translate business problems into technical requirements, write solution designs, draft and maintain project plans, and drive timely, high‑quality delivery. Help mature our disaster recovery and resilience story, including implementing and evolving an online backup/restore API and contributing to improved multi‑region and multi‑tenant capabilities for our cloud offering. Design and implement developer and operator tooling that makes it easier to understand, troubleshoot, and safely operate a complex distributed system in production environments.

Hands‑on experience building and maintaining highly concurrent, data‑intensive software, with a deep understanding of low‑level network and disk I/O (for example, throughput, latency, backpressure, batching, and failure modes). Demonstrated ability to work autonomously and navigate ambiguity – you are comfortable taking on problems you haven’t solved before, breaking them down into concrete steps, and driving them to completion with minimal supervision. Strong communication and collaboration skills in a remote‑first environment: you tailor explanations to your audience, translate business requirements into actionable technical work with Product, and help teams reach clear, decisive outcomes with minimal churn. Nice to Haves: Experience building workflow automation or process orchestration software. Experience with distributed systems algorithms or protocols such as Raft, Paxos, SWIM, and/or CRDTs. Strong familiarity with the observability pillars (logging, metrics, tracing) and how to integrate observability into the development and incident lifecycle, ideally including experience with L3 support and on‑call.

Zoek, vergelijk en bereid je sollicitatie voor

Begin met een beroep of vaardigheid die je wilt gebruiken. Pas de locatie- en beroepsfilters aan en open vacatures om de verantwoordelijkheden te vergelijken. Vind je geen resultaten, probeer dan een kortere zoekterm of verwijder één filter tegelijk.

Maak onderscheid tussen vereisten en voorkeuren. Controleer werktijden, beloning en locatie wanneer die zijn vermeld. Ook werk op afstand kan een bepaald woonland, een werkvergunning of overlappende werktijden vereisen. Bevestig de beschikbaarheid en volledige voorwaarden bij de werkgever.

Kies echte voorbeelden uit je ervaring die aansluiten op de functie-eisen. Leg je bijdrage uit en gebruik alleen cijfers die je kunt onderbouwen. Volg de instructies van de werkgever en controleer contactgegevens, inhoud en PDF voordat je de sollicitatie verstuurt.

Voordat je solliciteert

Vragen over werk zoeken

Waarom zijn sommige vacatures in het Engels?

Werkgevers schrijven hun eigen titels en omschrijvingen. We behouden die teksten om de vereisten en voorwaarden niet te veranderen. De navigatie en deze gids zijn in het Nederlands. Vind je niets met Nederlandse zoekwoorden, probeer dan ook de functie of vaardigheid in de taal van de vacature, bijvoorbeeld “software engineer”.

Kan ik bij een baan op afstand vanuit elk land werken?

Niet altijd. Een werkgever kan bepaalde woonlanden, een werkvergunning of vaste werktijden vereisen. Controleer de oorspronkelijke vacature. Ontbreken deze gegevens, vraag dan om bevestiging voordat je aanneemt dat je vanuit jouw locatie kunt werken.

Wat doe ik als er geen resultaten zijn?

Probeer een bredere functietitel of één vaardigheid en verwijder de filters één voor één. Bedrijven gebruiken verschillende namen voor vergelijkbaar werk. Is een specifieke vacature verdwenen, zoek dan het referentienummer op de carrièrepagina van het bedrijf. Minder filters maken een gesloten vacature niet opnieuw beschikbaar.

Wordt mijn sollicitatie via ResumizeAI verstuurd?

De sollicitatieknop opent een externe website. Volg de instructies van de werkgever of het wervingsplatform en bevestig daar de verzending. Een cv voorbereiden in ResumizeAI is nog geen sollicitatie indienen. Opent de link alleen de bedrijfswebsite, zoek dan eerst de juiste vacature.

Hoe pas ik mijn cv en motivatiebrief aan?

Koppel de vereisten aan projecten, taken en resultaten die je kunt toelichten. Benadruk relevante ervaring zonder vaardigheden of prestaties te verzinnen. Leg in je brief je interesse uit met een concreet voorbeeld. Gebruik de gevraagde taal en bestandsindeling en controleer beide documenten voor verzending.
