EPAM Systems

Engineering-led digital platform and software services firm

Overview

EPAM Systems is a US-listed software engineering and digital platform services company headquartered in Newtown, Pennsylvania. It describes itself as having more than thirty years of experience in custom software, product and platform engineering. For calendar 2025 the company reported revenue of US$5.457 billion, up 15.4% year on year, although organic growth at constant currency was a much lower 4.9%, the difference being largely acquired revenue.[1] At 31 December 2025 it employed about 62,850 people, of whom roughly 56,600 were delivery professionals, a 2.7% increase on a year earlier.[1] That headcount is more than double that of any other firm in this list. GAAP operating income fell 4.5% to US$520.0 million in 2025 while non-GAAP operating income rose 6.7%, and management guided to 4.5%–7.5% revenue growth for 2026.[1] EPAM’s scale makes it a common choice for multi-year engineering programmes at large enterprises, and its delivery network was historically concentrated in Central and Eastern Europe.
