Technical Lead / Principal Software Engineer

Here at Appian, our values of Intensity and Excellence define who we are. We set high standards and live up to them, ensuring that everything we do is done with care and quality. We approach every challenge with ambition and commitment, holding ourselves and each other accountable to achieve the best results. When you join Appian, you’ll be part of a passionate team dedicated to accomplishing hard things, together. The goal of our Platform Engineering team is to make it easy for our service teams to build and run production systems. As an experienced engineer in Platform Engineering, you will be helping re-architect our platform to run on public, private, and hybrid clouds and to allow for frequent, predictable and high impact changes. You will ensure that our world-class infrastructure is always available, responsive, and capable of meeting the diverse needs of our customers. As part of the team, you will be responsible for leading a small team whilst still being super technical and hands on, building the cloud infrastructure that powers the Appian platform. This isn’t your average software developer role. On the Platform Engineering team, you’ll learn about a wide range of technologies and tackle new challenges as you add features and functionality to the Appian cloud infrastructure. Right now this role is focused on building features that enable network connectivity between our platform and external networks. This will likely change and evolve over time, so this will give you an idea of the type of work you will be doing when you start.
