Pega Poland is a leading technology hub in Europe, driving innovation and delivering cutting‑edge software solutions. Employees are encouraged to collaborate, develop their skills, and share their expertise in an open and supportive environment. In addition to our passion for technology, we value an inclusive work environment and engaged community, caring deeply about the wellbeing of our employees by providing wellness programs and social initiatives.

Pega Predictive Diagnostic Cloud (PDC) is a 24/7/365 service that lives at the forefront of Pega Cloud. By combining millions of diagnostic messages each day, it provides performance insight for application developers and companies, as well as for the entire Pega Cloud. PDC plays a crucial role in connecting the dots and finding complex behavioral patterns in all kinds of software defects. PDC is transforming into a decision hub that will drive the automation of many Cloud diagnostic processes. We’re looking for people who will make this happen, while helping us scale the service from receiving millions to tens of millions messages each day.

The PDC team lives the agile dream by deploying running software to production every seven days. No waterfall‑style planning, hardening sprints, or complex deployments. Just build, verify, click the deploy button, and check whether customers are happy with what you’ve developed.
