Questions
What is your name and your role at Camunda?
My name is Sara Lolatte, and I’m a tech lead in the engineering department on the quality assurance team. My focus is on driving automated testing initiatives to ensure robust and reliable quality across our products.
What experiences have shaped your career and led you to where you are today?
Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work across diverse industries and products, from SaaS to mobile applications to embedded systems, all with a strong focus on automated testing. Each experience has deepened my understanding of quality assurance practices and how to adapt them to different technologies and teams.
At Camunda, I’ve been able to apply this expertise to scale testing efforts and ensure high-quality releases for a product that powers critical business processes worldwide.
How did you learn about Camunda, and what motivated you to join the team?
I discovered Camunda while exploring opportunities to broaden my professional horizons. I was quickly impressed by its reputation as a leader in business process automation and orchestration. The more I learned, the more I was drawn to its innovative platform and the chance to work on impactful solutions with a talented and passionate team.
Joining Camunda felt like the perfect way to grow professionally and contribute to meaningful projects.
What excites you the most about your work?
The problem-solving aspect—figuring out how to make testing more efficient, scalable, and impactful. I enjoy finding creative solutions to complex challenges and seeing how they directly enhance the quality of our products. Knowing that my contributions help ensure a seamless experience for our users is incredibly rewarding.
As a fully remote company, Camunda has spent a lot of care creating an intentional remote culture, but “remote culture” can mean a lot of things. What does the remote culture of Camunda mean to you?
Camunda’s remote-first culture fosters a truly global and inclusive team by celebrating diversity and valuing different cultures and backgrounds. This commitment to inclusion ensures that everyone feels respected and appreciated, regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, or cultural background.
For me, this supportive environment, combined with the flexibility of remote work, has made it easier to balance my professional and personal life—whether it’s managing day-to-day tasks or staying connected with family across continents. It brings a harmony that traditional office roles couldn’t offer.
What is a project or idea you’ve worked on at Camunda that you’re particularly proud of?
One of the projects I’m most proud of at Camunda was leading the initiative to introduce automated end-to-end testing across the entire C8 product stack. This effort transformed how we approach testing by enabling cross-component workflows to be tested efficiently and consistently, ensuring higher product quality and smoother releases.
The success of this project was instrumental in forming the Test Automation Team, highlighting its long-term impact on Camunda’s commitment to quality and innovation.
Can you share something about your personal life that colleagues may not know about you?
I’m always up for an adventure—like the time I went skydiving over the Swiss Alps. Leaping out of a plane and taking in the breathtaking views of snowcapped peaks was an unforgettable experience. I love exploring new places and seeking out challenges that push me beyond my comfort zone.
Is there anything else you’d like to share?
I’m incredibly grateful to be part of a company that champions innovation, collaboration, and continuous growth. Camunda’s commitment to delivering impactful solutions motivates me to constantly explore new challenges and strive for excellence alongside our talented and supportive team.
Here’s to continued growth and exciting milestones ahead!
