  • Salary to £60k + Company Options Scheme
  • Hybrid working between your home, their offices (London Vauxhall) & client sites.

This company is a Workflow & AI Orchestration Specialist. They're on a mission to modernise how public sector organisations manage casework, derive insight from data and deliver citizen services.

They operate across two pillars: 1) Advise and Implement to provide end to end technology solutions that integrate cutting edge orchestration and 2) agentic AI capabilities. They’re growing fast and looking for bright, dynamic people to help build their business.

Role

They’re looking for a Java Camunda Engineer to join their implementation team. You’ll work across Camunda BPMN/DMN process automation, API integration, and microservice orchestration — helping their public-sector clients build secure, scalable, and resilient digital services.

You’ll collaborate with solution architects, business analysts, and designers to translate workflows into elegant, maintainable code. You’ll play a key part in defining technical standards, optimising runtime performance, and mentoring less- experienced engineers in workflow-centric delivery.

This is an ideal role for someone who enjoys solving complex process problems through clean code, automation, and modern engineering practices.

The role involves visiting client sites; the company will cover travel expenses. Frequency is uncertain but candidates should be comfortable with that being 2-3 days per week. Client sites could be anywhere but will most likely be in & around London.

Responsibilities

Design, develop, and deploy Camunda-based process and decision automation solutions

Implement and integrate Java-based microservices, APIs, and connectors within orchestration flows

Translate BPMN and DMN models into executable workflows and reusable components

Collaborate closely with analysts and service designers to refine and iterate business processes

Develop and maintain automated test suites, CI/CD pipelines, and containerised deployments

Optimise Camunda engine performance and monitor workflow metrics for production environments

Participate in code reviews, peer testing, and technical design discussions

Contribute to their internal best-practice frameworks and automation accelerators

Essential

Eligible (have resided in the UK for the past 5 years) and prepared to go through UK SC Security Clearance

Familiarity with Spring Boot, REST APIs, and microservice architectures

Knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes for containerisation and orchestration

Proficiency in Git, CI/CD pipelines, and automated testing frameworks

Understanding of event-driven design and message brokers (e.g. Kafka, RabbitMQ)

Good knowledge of security, authentication, and integration patterns for enterprise systems

Experience working in agile teams within digital transformation or automation programmes

Desirable

Experience with Camunda 8 (Zeebe) clusters and Operate/Tasklist components

Familiarity with Camunda connectors, external task workers, and scripting extensions

Exposure to cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Helm)

Experience integrating process automation with case-management or service-orchestration platforms

Understanding of agentic AI capabilities and how they can complement workflow automation

Experience mentoring developers or contributing to open-source Camunda extensions
