As a Senior Appian Developer with Synergy, your primary role is to be an expert in the design and implementation of Appian code.  The projects we staff are unusually complex, so a standard background in building Appian BPM solutions usually does not prepare developers well for work here.

The solutions you build must fulfill the requirements of the client, perform well under high load, and not introduce unnecessary technical debt in the future.  Specifically, much of the work required will involve highly complex and technical expression rules and interfaces, so expertise in looping, local variables, and the flow of information between Appian objects is a must.    

As a member of a large team, you will also be responsible for mentoring more junior developers, as well as peer reviewing the code produced by your peers.  Peer review is primarily focused on best practices and performance.  A typical development cycle includes receiving paved requirements from a business analyst, analyzing the requirements to find the best design, implementation and unit testing, packaging for deployment, and then follow-up with the FQA/SQA team for additional debugging.
