About The Position

We are seeking an experienced Appian BPM Developer to develop and implement enterprise BPM solutions and migrate existing BPM applications from other platforms to Appian. The role combines Appian development with migration strategy, solution planning, delivery coordination, and communication across business and technical teams. Hands-on experience migrating applications from another BPM platform to Appian is mandatory; general Appian development experience alone is not sufficient. The selected professional will design, develop, configure, deploy, and support Appian applications in both cloud and on-premises environments. The work includes building process models, SAIL interfaces, rules, records, integrations, workflow automation, and case management solutions, as well as integrating with enterprise databases and external systems. The developer will also contribute to delivery planning, deployment and release processes, troubleshooting, and performance optimization, and use approved AI-assisted development tools in accordance with enterprise standards. This is a contract-to-hire role with a six-month contract and potential direct-hire conversion. The arrangement is hybrid, with three onsite days per week, at one of the listed locations: Jersey City, New Jersey; Dallas, Texas; or Tampa, Florida. Applicants must be U.S. citizens or Green Card holders. Flexible work-from-home options are available.
