These values guide our actions and shape our culture every day. When you join Appian, you'll be part of a passionate team that's dedicated to accomplishing hard things. SC 2.0 is the engine powering our vision. Appian's Sales Solutions Consulting team is in the midst of an exciting transformation - redefining what it means to be a trusted advisor in today's fast-paced, mission-driven environment. Our SCs don't just demo features - they tell stories, co-create with customers, and help shape strategy with technical credibility and business insight. Read More About SC 2.0 Here You can listen to our Global SSC leader, Gregg Aldana discuss SC 2.0 here. The SPEAR Team (Strategic Presales Execution and Readiness) is the operational engine behind Appian's global Presales organization - the team that builds the tools, assets, governance, and infrastructure that let Solutions Consultants do their best work. As a Demo Engineer on SPEAR, you are not on the sidelines of SC 2.0 - you are one of the people making it possible at scale. The Role Behind every excellent demo is a outstanding demo asset, and that's where you come in. As a Demo Engineer on Appian's SPEAR Team in Chennai, you are the technical backbone that turns one-off sales demos into a polished, reusable, continuously evolving library that powers hundreds of sales engagements each year. While our Solutions Consultants are out in the field telling stories and co-creating with customers, you ensure they always have the right asset, in the right shape, ready to go. In this role, you'll capture, refine, and expand Appian product demos - de-branding prospect-specific work, modernizing older assets with the latest platform capabilities, and packaging everything into reusable demos, clickable demo experiences, walkthrough videos, and scripts. You'll also contribute directly to DemoHub, Appian's centralized demo catalog and governance system - helping evolve the application itself, not just the content inside it. You will be coached and guided by the Lead Demo Engineer based in Chennai, reporting to the SPEAR Team leadership in the US - giving you both strong local support and direct visibility into Appian's global Presales strategy. This is a unique opportunity to develop deep expertise in the Appian platform while making a tangible, measurable impact on global sales. If you're detail-oriented, technically curious, and excited about shaping how Appian shows up to the market, this role is for you. What you'll be doing. - Demo Ingestion and Cataloging: Capture product demos developed during live sales engagements and ingest them into DemoHub, ensuring they are organized, tagged, discoverable, and reusable across the global Solutions Consulting organization. - De-branding and Refinement: De-brand prospect-specific demos, clean up their design and functionality, and prepare them for broader organizational use - turning one-off assets into reusable gold. - Demo Enhancement: Refresh and extend existing demos by incorporating advanced new Appian features and functionality, keeping the library current with the latest product releases, GTM narratives, and industry trends. - DemoHub Application Development: Contribute to the ongoing development and maintenance of the DemoHub Appian application itself - the platform that stores, governs, and surfaces demo content to the global SC team. This includes building recent features, fixing bugs, and improving usability. - Clickable Demo Production: Record, edit, and continually update interactive clickable demos in a commercial third-party demo platform, ensuring our self-service and accelerated demo experiences stay accurate, on-brand, and aligned with current product capabilities. - Demo Artifact Creation: Produce supporting artifacts including walkthrough videos, demo scripts, talk tracks, and quick-reference guides that help SCs adopt and adapt assets quickly. - Cross-functional Collaboration: Partner with Solutions Consultants worldwide, the SPEAR Team, and other Presales stakeholders to ensure demo assets reflect the latest go-to-market priorities and customer outcomes. - Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to streamline demo ingestion, cataloging, and maintenance workflows, and help bring those .
Here's how to pick the right one and stand out in your application.
144.883Jobs

That number is real. WorkMundi's database shows 144,883 open engineer roles across the world. India has the most with 31,687 jobs, followed by the United States with 30,084. If you just finished reading one job ad and felt paralyzed by choice, you're not alone—but this scale is actually an advantage. It means you can afford to be selective.
Start by geography and language. The majority of engineer ads—117,837 of them—have the job posting text written in English. Use that as one filter, but remember: the ad text language tells you nothing about whether the role actually requires you to speak English day-to-day. Read the job description carefully. Then check which countries have the volume you're targeting. Singapore, Poland, and Australia round out the top five after India and the US.
Next, learn who's hiring. Accenture has posted 2,801 engineer roles. andurilindustries, speechify, and jobgether are also actively recruiting. If you're applying to one of these names, research their hiring patterns and interview style before you apply. That homework pays off.
When you interview, expect the question every engineer hears: 'Tell me about a time you had to debug a problem that wasn't in your job description.' Have a specific story ready—not a general one. Name the tools, the deadline pressure, and what you learned. Hiring managers listen for whether you see problem-solving as part of the role itself, not a favour.
