About the role

We’re entering a new era of automation. At Camunda, we’re building the operating system for agentic AI to automate critical business processes. The Enterprise Agentic Automation Team (EAAT) designs and operates production‑grade agentic solutions that serve as proof points for our customers. As a Senior Engineer, you will design, build, and operate enterprise‑grade agentic AI systems embedded in Camunda orchestrated workflows. You will turn AI capabilities into reliable, secure, and scalable production systems that run at the core of our organization.

What You Will Do

• Design and implement production‑grade agentic orchestration systems combining executable BPMN, Camunda workers / connectors, DMN, and AI components.
• Design and build AI agents with clearly defined responsibilities, tools, memory strategies, and decision boundaries.
• Engineer and govern context pipelines (static instructions, dynamic enrichment, RAG, constraints, evaluation signals) to ensure reliable model behavior.
• Implement structured prompting, output enforcement, human‑in‑the‑loop patterns, and guardrails for safe, controllable execution.
• Build evaluation frameworks, feedback loops, and testing for deterministic and non‑deterministic systems.
• Operate agents in production (AgentOps): logging, monitoring, alerting, incident response, and continuous improvement.
• Contribute to production infrastructure standards including CI/CD, environment separation, secrets management, and security fundamentals.

Must Haves

• 5+ years experience designing, building, and operating production‑grade systems (backend, platform, or full‑stack) with Java / Spring, including scalable services, integrations, and APIs.
• Proven AI Engineering experience building, testing and operating LLM‑powered systems in production.
• Hands‑on experience with agent frameworks such as LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, or similar.
• Practical experience with context engineering (RAG pipelines, retrieval strategies, structured outputs, evaluation signals).
• Demonstrated end‑to‑end ownership across design, implementation, deployment, and operations.
• Solid understanding of cloud‑native infrastructure and production operations (CI/CD, environment separation, secrets, monitoring, incident response).
