Team: Engineering Enablement Group
As a Senior Software Engineer in our Engineering Enablement Group, you will lead the re-design and evolution of our Mobile Branding framework — the system that enables customers to create custom-branded versions of the Appian mobile application for both iOS and Android. You will drive the architectural modernization of the end-to-end branding pipeline, from the customer-facing Forum application and provisioning tools to the backend build service running on Mac EC2 runners in AWS.
By leveraging modern microservices, CI/CD automation, and cloud-native infrastructure, you will transform the current system into a more reliable, scalable, and maintainable platform that reduces manual intervention and accelerates customer delivery. We are looking for a technical leader who can bridge the gap between complex Ruby/Bash-based tooling, Appian process models, and AWS infrastructure to deliver a seamless mobile branding experience.
Primary Qualifications:
- 6-9 Strong working experience with Android and iOS frameworks and mobile application development workflows.
- Familiarity with mobile build systems (Fastlane, Xcode, Gradle) and code-signing workflows.
- Experience with proficiency in Python, with experience in Ruby, Bash, or Go being a plus.
- Advanced experience with AWS infrastructure (S3, Lambda, EC2) and CI/CD pipeline design.
- Strong end-to-end knowledge of pipeline creation, deployment automation, and infrastructure-as-code (Terraform).
- Familiarity with monitoring, observability, and performance tools.
To be successful in this role, you need:
- Architecture & Design: Ability to lead the re-design of the mobile branding pipeline across customer tools, the Forum application, and the backend build service — ensuring reliability, scalability, and fault tolerance.
- Build System Mastery: Deep understanding of mobile build systems, code-signing workflows (iOS provisioning, Android signing), and CI/CD pipelines that automate the full build lifecycle.
- DevOps Ownership: A "builder" mindset toward end-to-end CI/CD pipelines, infrastructure-as-code, and deployment automation across AWS (S3, Lambda, EC2).
- Strategic Problem Solving: Strong debugging skills to resolve complex distributed systems issues across Forum process models, GitLab pipelines, and cloud infrastructure — paired with the ability to mentor teams and lead cross-functional initiatives.
- Product-Centric Engineering: Experience building software in an enterprise SaaS environment with a focus on delivering direct value to customers through automation and tooling.
