Apptio: Who We Are

Who We Are

Apptio is a high-growth, venture-backed start-up headquartered in Bellevue, Washington. Founded in 2007 by veterans from the enterprise software world, Apptio is redefining the business of IT. In just a short few years, we have grown to almost 200 employees and count some of the world’s largest brands as customers.

Fueling this engine are some of the brightest minds from across the technology landscape. We believe in empowering individuals so they can create something new. That the next killer idea can truly come from anywhere. And that you learn a lot more by listening than from talking. Most important of all, we share a unifying belief that the process of creation is deeply collaborative and that the right team can make history.

Innovation is more than an aspiration at Apptio. It’s a guiding philosophy that motivates and pushes us to move beyond perceived limitations. We are builders who thrive on finding elegant solutions to complex problems. We share a collective appetite for asking uncomfortable questions, for challenging sacred cows, and a passion for exceeding expectations. That is what it means to be part of a transformation. These convictions are not simple platitudes – they are an honest reflection of our core values; as individuals, employees, and teammates.
