Wlgroup; Den Haag; On-site; EUR 60,000 - 100,000; Full time

Job summary

Wlgroup in the Netherlands is seeking an experienced Camunda engineer to keep the platform healthy and build what sits on top of it. You will own administration, security, and the automation forms that users interact with, while shaping the roadmap and governance with the customer.

You will combine strong Java and Spring Boot skills with hands-on REST API integrations, CI/CD tooling, and data handling inside running processes, delivering reliable automation solutions across the organization.

Qualifications

• Substantial experience developing workflows on Camunda 7 or above, including process modelling in BPMN and DMN, and building the React forms that sit in front of them.
• Strong Java, because the platform is Java based, plus Spring Boot or external task workers written in another language such as JavaScript or Python.
• Hands-on integration with third-party systems over REST APIs, message queues, connectors and microservices.
• Comfort with databases and with handling data inside a running process.
• Git and continuous integration tooling for deploying, testing and maintaining automation solutions.
• A working understanding of how process models execute natively, and how that architecture supports fast, incremental delivery.
• The analytical habit of taking a complicated business workflow apart and putting something maintainable in its place, plus genuine troubleshooting skill.
• Clear written and spoken English, the confidence to present status to a senior audience, and the patience to negotiate with system owners and project managers.
• Nice to have: French.

Responsibilities

• Keeping the platform supported and available against agreed service levels, on a proactive maintenance plan agreed in advance rather than by firefighting.
• Planning and applying patches, hotfixes and approved version upgrades, and upgrading the database technology underneath.
• Testing every modification before it reaches anything that matters, and troubleshooting performance when it slips.
• Administering users, groups and security settings, and keeping the configuration documented well enough to be handed over.
• Drafting the automation roadmap and the governance and management plans, then keeping them current with the customer.
• Gathering requirements from staff across the organisation and turning process descriptions into models for automation.
• Building and maintaining workflows, including the forms people actually interact with, and the workflows that exchange data with third-party applications.
• Troubleshooting data exchange errors, correcting them, and documenting every development so the next person is not starting from scratch.
• Producing training material, guides and knowledge articles for the people who use it.
