About the Role:

We run Camunda on Camunda. Our Enterprise Agentic Automation Team (EAAT) builds production-grade agentic orchestration using Camunda's platform for Camunda's own operations, from Finance to Support to Go-to-Market. As Senior Architect, you own delivery on our EAAT-led initiatives end to end. You partner with process owners to uncover where the biggest value lies, redesign how the work should flow, decide where agents, rules or people handle each step, and shape it into scope our engineers can build from directly. Then you lead technical delivery management with our engineers, steering increments, dependencies and decisions until you get it live and prove the value. You won't design and hand over: you stay until it works in production, and keep evolving it.

What You Will Do:

• Own delivery of our use cases end to end, business and technical, from discovery to production and value realization

• Run discovery with process owners: as-is baseline, target process, and where agents, rules or humans handle each step

• Turn target processes into epics engineers can build from directly: scenarios, acceptance criteria, increments

• Design solutions within our reference architecture, and bring new patterns based on lessons learned

• Lead technical delivery on your initiatives: plan increments with the engineers, manage dependencies and risks, and keep process owners and sponsors aligned on progress and decisions

• Define and track value per initiative and increment, and keep business decisions moving

• Feed delivery learnings back into the reference architecture, our delivery method and Camunda's product

What you bring:

Ability and/or willingness to use our product.

Must Haves:

• 7+ years in solution architecture or technical/process consulting, with an engineering background (Java, JavaScript or similar) and significant time delivering for the business or customers

• A track record of leading process orchestration initiatives (Camunda or comparable) from discovery to production, not just designing them and handing over

• Strong business analysis and process management skills: runs discovery and process redesign workshops with business stakeholders, models processes in BPMN, and turns the outcome into solid solution designs

• Solution and data architecture in an enterprise context: integrations and APIs, and the data a process and its agents need across systems

• An AI-first mindset, including first experience designing and building enterprise-grade agentic solutions

• Holds their own with senior stakeholders and gets decisions made

Nice-to-haves:

• Experience in Finance or other back-office process domains and operations (P2P, Q2C)

• Experience building value cases from operational data (baselines, volumes, value per increment), value engineering or benefits tracking

• Experience with process intelligence or mining tools

• Working knowledge of enterprise systems such as NetSuite, Salesforce or Zip
