Technical Support Sr Consultant

Baker Tilly • Madison, WI

4d • Hybrid

About The Position

Baker Tilly’s Industry Applications team develops data-driven technology solutions for clients. Our development philosophy is that we build the best products, most expediently, when the builders are intimately involved in the solutioning. Working with us, expect to ship often, to get outsized ownership over the products you build, and to be a leader in solving our clients problems. For this reason, we prioritize creativity, and a passion for delivering excellence. We typically work with manufacturing clients, though we also get tapped for complicated insurance projects, forensics, and other data-heavy work. Our solutions fundamentally start with the problems we’re working to solve with our clients. Accordingly, the tools we leverage vary from use-case to use-case. Our core stack leverages Anvil, and we integrate other solutions and systems as required. Examples include: State-machine driven applications for business process management “Rules Engine” development for measuring and reporting compliance against legislation/regulations Machine learning models for categorization (developed with AWS SageMaker) Text and key term extraction from PDFs Mixed integer linear programming for supply chain optimization modeling Monte Carlo techniques for probabilistic forecasting We’re currently recruiting for our Applications Development team.

Requirements

• You have a technical background and genuine interest in computer science and software development. Maybe you got a Bachelor’s in Computer Science, or a Master’s in Data Science and Analytics, or you have a portfolio of awesome projects.
• You have at least an intermediate knowledge of Python, or advanced understanding of another high-level language (e.g. Java, C#)
• You are deep down a “maker” – you just like to build stuff.
• You have an eye for excellence. You might not be a UI/UX buff, but you know what annoys you, and you strive for an excellent user experience in everything you build.
• You’re a problem solver, and love learning new things to solve new problems.

Nice To Haves

• You’ve used the Anvil framework before (show us those hobby projects!)
• You have 2-5 years building solutions in industry. Maybe these were in a low-code framework, or expansive Excel workbooks, or contributing to full-stack projects, but you’ve been in the trenches in business application development.
• You have a background in traditional web development, such as back-end Python frameworks like Django or Flask, Net, or Node JS.
• You are comfortable with version control using Git, database administration, and DevOps.
• You are familiar with (and maybe certified in) one of Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud.

Responsibilities

• Develop full-stack applications in just Python using Anvil (https://anvil.works)
• Bring new solutions to the table, in particular leveraging the AWS ecosystem
• Identify and develop service opportunities to assist Baker Tilly’s manufacturing industry and development and community adclients.

Benefits

• The chance to own the development process. We use Azure Dev Ops for our project and issue management, but this role is a lot more than “take an issue, open a PR”. We want people excited to own a problem and figure out a solution.
• A collaborative, engaged team. You’ll work closely with analysts, Tableau Developers, and management consultants to help solve our clients’ problems. Our team is distributed, but we meet quarterly and make the most of it when we do.
• Diversity. No two days are alike, depending on the projects you’re working on (and the technologies required).
• The chance to immerse yourself in an up-and-coming framework – Anvil allows full stack development using just Python, and is key to our rapid-development approach.
• A chance to leave your mark. You will own projects and see them through with our clients. Meanwhile, we are constantly adding to our library of ‘building blocks’ so we aren’t solving the same problem twice. Successful candidates will meet the following requirements:
