The answer to this question is problematical.

Unless the date of Jesus's birth is during or after AD 6, then there was no Roman procurator when Jesus was born. After Herod the Great died in 4 BC his 'kingdom' was divided into three parts - Galilee and the territory to the north, northern Transjordan and Judea. Archelaus was a subject king (subjugated to Rome) over Judea from 4 BC to AD 6. His rule was adjudged to be inadequate and he was removed in favour of a string of Roman governors (also called procurators) until AD 41. The most famous of these was Pontius Pilate who reigned from AD 26 to 36, which maybe makes him the procurator of Judea when Jesus died. He was much despised for his despotic acts and was even reprimanded by Tiberius Caesar for his harshness to the Jews.

As regards the answer to a related question, it seems unclear exactly who the ruler of Judea was when Jesus was born. It may have been Archelaus, who ruled from 4 BC to AD 6. However, there is a record which states that King Herod the Great was ruler when Jesus was born. This puts Jesus's actual birth during or before 4 BC.

So we can see that the exact date of Jesus's birth is key to the answer to the question of who was ruling Judea at the time of his birth.

How did the Roman Emperor Claudius handle unrest in Judea in the first century AD?

There was no unrest in Judea when Claudius became emperor. There had been some unrest under his predecessor Caligula because he wanted turn the temple in Jerusalem into a shrine with an enormous statue of himself in the guise of Jupiter. This caused some unrest, but Agrippa dissuaded his friend Caligula and the unrest ended. By the time of the accession of Claudius Judea was quiet. Agrippa was not really a king (even though her was the grandson of Herod the Great.) Claudius gave him the governorship of the province in the place of the procurator Marullus and with the appellation of "king". Agrippa was not a de facto king, so much so that on his death the governorship reverted back to a Roman procurator. Claudius appointed Agrippa because he was a very close friend of his.

Roman emperor when Jesus was alive?

The Emperor of Rome at the time of Jesus' death was Tiberius Claudius Nero Caesar, but he did not kill Jesus. The only way Rome had a part in Jesus' death is that the land of Judah was under Roman control and the Jews could not put a person to death but had to appeal to Rome to crucify a person. The Jewish leaders wanted Jesus dead and so they appeal to Pontius Pilate, who was the Procurator (like a governor) to put Jesus to death. He obliged them.

Who was Jesus put to death by?

Ultimately, the Romans. The High Priests wanted him dead, but the High Priests did not have more say in the situation than the Roman procurator (Pilate) did. Pilate, of course, tried to "wash his hands" of the whole thing, but that does not change the fact that Pilate could have stopped it - he didn't.
