Position Overview
We are seeking an experienced Appian Technical Lead to support the continued development, enhancement, and long-term ownership of an enterprise Appian platform.
This role combines hands-on Appian development and architecture with strong technical leadership and business-facing responsibilities. The ideal candidate will be comfortable working directly within the platform when needed while also leading stakeholder discussions, solution-design conversations, refinement sessions, and product-roadmap planning.
This individual will serve as a key bridge between business stakeholders and the Appian development team, translating business priorities into scalable technical solutions and helping guide the future direction of the platform.
Responsibilities
- Provide technical leadership for the design, development, implementation, and enhancement of Appian applications.

- Partner directly with business stakeholders to understand workflows, priorities, pain points, and future-state requirements.
- Translate complex business requirements into scalable Appian solutions and technical delivery plans.
- Lead business review sessions, sprint-zero activities, backlog refinement, requirements discussions, and product-roadmap conversations.
- Serve as a primary liaison between business stakeholders, developers, business analysts, architecture teams, and program leadership.
- Represent technical program leadership in stakeholder meetings when needed.
- Guide developers on solution design, Appian development standards, architecture decisions, and technical best practices.
- Support knowledge transfer and transition of platform ownership from implementation partners to internal teams.
- Help establish technical standards, governance practices, and a sustainable operating model for the Appian platform.
- Mentor developers and provide technical guidance across the team.
- Collaborate with teams supporting integrated enterprise platforms, including Salesforce.
- Potentially grow into formal technical-management or people-leadership responsibilities as the team expands.
