We’ve been named in GP Bullhound’s 2024 Top 100 Next Unicorn list, we’ve earned Flexa’s stamp as a truly flexible workplace, and we proudly hold Great Place to Work certification in both the USA and UK. As a fully remote, global company, we’re rewriting the rules of how modern businesses operate.
And we’re just getting started! We are growing fast and on a mission to find the very best talent in the world. If you’re ready to bring your bold ideas to a fast-paced, dynamic team, keep reading – this role could be the one you’ve been waiting for.
About the Role:
Join a remote, cross-functional, integrated team that takes full responsibility for Camunda 7 and Optimize 3. Camunda 7 is a battle-proven process orchestration solution with thousands of community users and enterprise customers that combines embeddable Java execution engines for BPMN and DMN with web applications for operations and administration. Camunda Optimize 3 offers advanced analytics, monitoring, and reporting capabilities for processes executed on Camunda 7, allowing organizations to gain insights and improve performance.
The team is entering a phase where Camunda 7 and Optimize 3 will transition into maintenance mode (currently planned for October 2025). This means we will halt the implementation of features and focus mainly on maintenance updates. During this period, we will leverage the reduced need for feature delivery to develop a tool to migrate running and completed process instances from Camunda 7 to 8. This will help our Camunda 7 users and customers to transition to Camunda 8
We are seeking an experienced Java backend engineer to join this dynamic team, which has 8 members and is located in Europe.
You will be integrated into Camunda’s engineering division, where you will be part of an innovative environment (slack time, hack days, tech talks, etc.) that fosters self-development and growth beyond your core responsibilities

Strong analytical problem-solving, debugging, and root-causing skills with attention to detail and consistency.
Bring a “Manager of One” mindset: Promote a proactive approach to managing individual responsibilities, fostering collaboration with fellow Engineers, QA, and Product Management throughout the entire process, from scoping and solution design to implementation, testing, and review, while accepting support and input from teammates when needed.
Ability to work in a remote environment following an incremental approach: use written communication for regular status updates and capturing key decisions, deliver work results in small iterations (within days).
You thrive on taking ownership, maintaining, and improving an existing codebase and CI pipelines. You are comfortable with the “you build it, you run it” mindset
Nice-to-haves:
Experience working with: Spring/Spring Boot, Elastic/Open Search, Jenkins, MyBatis, Docker, Quarkus, Maven, relational databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL, etc.), application servers (WildFly, Tomcat, etc.).
