Appian

Lead Software Engineer

At Appian, we’re not only about building awesome software, but also about growing our culture of passion, energy, and innovation; great people, great software! With Appian Engineering, you’ll write high quality code with amazing colleagues to build an award-winning PaaS product. What is Appian? It’s an application platform that lets non-technical people build powerful cloud and mobile apps with flexible, visual models instead of clunky custom code.

As a Lead Software Engineer working on the Appian platform, your mission will be to ensure Appian is always fast, scalable and up to whatever tasks our customers configure it to do. On a brand new team, you will be solving problems of scale and flexibility that most engineers never see, building a product capable of serving our customers in ways you never imagined. Your scope extends from the high-performance data layer to the cross-platform user interface to the design tools used to create it.
