Who We Are
At Trility Consulting®, we’ve built a strong, remote-work culture where people thrive, grow, and support each other – earning us Great Place to Work® Certification. Headquartered in Central Iowa, we embrace flexible schedules and collaboration across geographically distributed teams serving clients from all corners of the United States and globally.
We seek team members with the grit necessary to forge paths where none previously existed, to get back up when circumstances knock them down, to adapt to the changing needs of the client even when it is uncomfortable, and to deliver on our commitments. Candidates must respect and value people, recognize that over-communication is barely good enough, thrive on solving complex problems, have a passion for building teams, and know that delivering what a client actually values is more important than their own predispositions. They understand value proposition, love delivering value, and take pride in learning the expansive and ever-changing business of clients. Candidates are self-motivated and relentlessly working to become more today than they were yesterday.
What You Will Do
Trility Consulting is actively seeking a Senior Platform & AI Consultant who is an expert in the field and a powerhouse on the keyboard. In this role, you will partner with Trility clients to design, build, and enhance modern cloud-native applications and platform services. You will work across backend APIs, frontend user experiences, cloud infrastructure, CI/CD automation, and emerging AI-assisted development practices to deliver scalable, secure, and maintainable solutions.
This position is ideal for a consultant who enjoys operating across the full technology stack, from application development and database design to infrastructure automation and deployment pipelines. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable building production software, improving developer experience, and leveraging AI tools to accelerate delivery.
