We deliver mission-critical business impact fast, and are directly responsible for partnering with our customers to bring their best ideas to life. Joining the Public Sector Capture team will provide you with the support and growth you need to strengthen and evolve your skills within the sales & consulting field.

We are seeking cleared technical experts of varying levels (i.e., Technical Consultant and Solutions Architect) to join our Public Sector, DoD Capture team. 

The Technical Consultant on this team will focus on engaging with our partners and customers pre-sales to develop applications on the Appian platform.

The Solutions Architect will act as a key technical leader within Appian’s Public Sector team, as well as a trusted technical advisor to Appian’s clients. In this role, you will define leading, integrated solutions that use Appian’s platform technology to support our customers’ unique mission areas. You will maintain an awareness of market forces and trends, lead the design and development of innovations and offerings that address customers’ demands and continue to position as a leader. You will consult and advise our customers on their programs and projects, driving quality and innovation.

If you’re interested in learning more about either of these roles, please apply!

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.

• 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.
