This is a hands-on leadership role for someone with production experience running Kubernetes-based, multi-cloud environments and the ability to help others do the same. The role is fully remote and works across time zones, so clarity, execution, and team momentum are essential.

• Own the design, rollout, and ongoing improvement of Kubernetes-driven, multi-cloud infrastructure with reliability, scalability, and security as non-negotiables.
• Partner with product engineering, security, support, and other engineering leaders so the platform helps teams ship safely and efficiently.
• Advance infrastructure automation, developer tooling, and platform guardrails so the service can grow without unnecessary friction.
• Shape how AI is used as a repeatable part of infrastructure operations, including analysis, automation, incident handling, and documentation.
• Strike the right balance between day-to-day operational stability and long-term investments in multi-cloud growth and new platform capabilities.

• Willingness to use Camunda’s product, along with the ability to do so effectively.
• 3 to 5 years of experience managing engineers who build and operate production infrastructure for a SaaS product.

• Practical Kubernetes experience in production, including scaling, reliability, and cluster lifecycle management.
• Experience working across more than one major cloud provider and understanding the trade-offs involved in multi-cloud operations.
• A history of partnering with senior engineers and stakeholders to deliver meaningful infrastructure improvements while strengthening reliability, scalability, and security.
• Strong leadership skills, including coaching, performance management, prioritization, and building an environment where engineers can do their best work.
• Clear judgment on where AI adds value in infrastructure engineering and where guardrails are needed for responsible use.

Preferred Experience

• Experience operating global or multi-region SaaS infrastructure.
• Exposure to infrastructure as code, policy as code, and platform automation.
• Experience improving observability, incident management, or reliability in cloud-native systems.
• Experience with cloud cost management, platform guardrails, or related tooling that improves infrastructure decision-making.
