You will consult and advise our customers on their programs and projects, driving quality and innovation.

These roles are based at Appian's Headquarters in McLean, VA. Employees hired for either position are required to be able to withhold Government Security Clearances and will have the opportunity to work in a flexible, hybrid environment. If you are not already located in the surrounding McLean, VA area, your willingness to relocate will be a contingency for this opportunity.

Basic qualifications:

• An Active Government Clearance (Top Secret and above, without any limitations) is required for this opening
• Ability and interest to maintain an Active TS Clearance (CI or FLS), with the ability and willingness to perform work within cleared facilities (SCIF work is required)
• Experience with hands-on software development, low-code platforms or technical consulting
• B.S./B.A. in Engineering, Computer Science, Information Systems, Mathematics or related field/degree
• Willingness to travel; 10% or less annually to support customer engagement

Some of the tools and resources we will equip you with include: 

• Training: During your first few weeks of joining Appian, not only will you go through comprehensive onboarding and Appian training, but you will also complete a CS specific bootcamp to prepare you for your first client project.
• Growth: Continuous learning opportunities are a key focus for our department. Whether it is companywide weekly knowledge shares, biweekly continuing education sessions led by fellow CS members, guild participation, or free online trainings, there is always somewhere to turn for technical and professional growth.
• Career: CS career planning concentrates on three main tracks - technical, focus, and business and it’s up to you to decide where your passions lie. Each employee will be matched with an advisor who will be your go to resource for all career questions and guidance. They can help with anything from questions about promotions to which track is right for you.

Culture:  Appian’s customer success group is quickly expanding but the culture continues to make the department feel like a small community. Monthly social events are planned virtually and in the DC area while our First Year Experience (FYE) group concentrates on creating a smooth transition for all new employees entering the working force for the first time.
