Named GP Bullhound’s Top 100 Next Unicorn list, 2025 Great Place to Work certified. Visionary in 2025 Gartner® Magic Quadrant™ for Business Orchestration and Automation Technologies. ranked 3rd in Flexa's 2026 Most Flexible Companies, We’re growing fast and looking for top talent to join our team. If you want meaningful work, visible impact and put something genuinely rare on your CV, keep reading.

From the moment a team opens Camunda for the first time, our job is to help them succeed — fast. As Principal Product Manager for Time to First Production, you'll own exactly that experience: the journey from a new team's very first workspace (or first local start) to their first process running confidently in production. Your mission is simple to say and genuinely exciting to build: make that first win happen sooner, more smoothly, and more reliably than ever before.

You'll be the DRI for one of Product Strategy's three company-wide outcome areas, with real license to shape it — define what a great first experience looks like, build the measurement that proves we're delivering it, and set the strategy and priorities that Engineering, Design, and our Experience org build against. It's a founding-type mandate: the outcome area is established and the ambition is clear, and you'll have the room to define the metric, the roadmap, and the experience that gets us there.

You'll work at the intersection of Camunda's push into agentic, AI-first ways of building (AI-assisted modeling, agentic development, ProcessOS-style process re-engineering) and the fundamentals of a great first-run experience (onboarding, guided building, testing, and the path to production). It's a role for someone who loves turning a bold, company-wide ambition — delight customers from day one — into a measurable, funded, and genuinely exciting product

• →

  Own the Time to First Production outcome area end to end: define its north-star metric(s), the customer journey they represent, and the roadmap of investments ("rocks" and initiatives) that move them.

• →

  Partner with the Validation team to build best-in-class, end-to-end measurement of the journey, so we always know exactly how well we're delivering for new teams and where to invest next.

• →

  Set direction and make prioritization calls across a portfolio of initiatives spanning AI-assisted and agentic building experiences, guided onboarding, testing/validation tooling, the path to production, and human-in-the-loop process experiences — in close partnership with Engineering, Design, and Experience pod leads.

• →

  Represent this outcome area to SLT, Product Marketing, and GTM, translating fast-moving product work into a clear, evidence-based narrative for internal and external audiences.

• →

  Collaborate closely with fellow Outcome DRIs (Enterprise Adoption, Production Confidence) to keep the three outcome areas coherent as one product strategy, and to hand work cleanly across the outcome boundaries (e.g., "first process" vs. "the second process and beyond").

• →

  Bring an outside-in, evidence-based lens — grounding roadmap decisions in real customer needs and feedback, not internal assumptions.

• Significant experience as a Principal/Staff-level Product Manager owning a cross-cutting, metrics-driven outcome or platform area (not a single feature surface) in B2B or enterprise SaaS.

• A track record of building measurement and north-star metrics from scratch — comfortable partnering with data/analytics functions to go from "we don't really know" to a credible, trusted number.

• Strong influence and cross-functional leadership skills: you can align Engineering, Design, GTM, and executive stakeholders around a strategy without relying on formal authority.

• Excellent written communication — this role's primary tool is the strategy document that others build against, so clear, structured writing matters as much as decision-making.

• A genuine passion for customer experience, paired with comfort shaping your own remit as the outcome area, its metric, and its roadmap continue to evolve.

• An interest in (or track record with) AI-native and agentic ways of working — Camunda's product organization is actively building for a world where AI agents build, test, and even help re-engineer processes.

• Background in process automation, workflow orchestration, BPM, or developer platforms.

• Experience partnering with Product Marketing / Analyst Relations on category or outcome-level positioning.

• Experience in a company mid-transition to an AI-first product operating model.
