Get Access To All JobsABOUT THE ROLE
We are building a differentiated advisory practice at the intersection of AI strategy, governance, and security. As organizations move from AI experimentation to enterprise-scale deployment, they face urgent questions: How do we govern AI responsibly? How do we secure agentic architectures? How do we align technical capabilities with business strategy and regulatory requirements?
This role is designed for a technically grounded early-career professional who wants to help answer those questions alongside senior practitioners. You will work directly with the practice lead on client-facing engagements, contribute to the development of proprietary frameworks and tools, and build expertise in one of the fastest-growing areas of consulting.
This is not a traditional strategy consulting role, and it is not a pure engineering role. It sits at the intersection—you need to be comfortable reading Python, understanding how LLMs and agentic systems work, AND translating that knowledge into governance frameworks, risk assessments, and executive-ready deliverables. If you thrive at the border between technical depth and business impact, this is for you.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
Client Delivery (50–60%)
- Support the design and delivery of AI governance assessments for clients across industries, leveraging frameworks such as ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF, and the EU AI Act.
- Conduct technical reviews of client AI systems, architectures, and deployments to identify governance gaps, security vulnerabilities, and risk exposure.
- Develop AI risk registers, control mappings, and maturity assessments tailored to each client's organizational context and regulatory landscape.
- Prepare client-facing deliverables including assessment reports, executive briefings, implementation roadmaps, and policy recommendations.
- Participate in workshops and stakeholder interviews with client teams ranging from data scientists to C-suite executives.
Practice Development (25–30%)
- Help build and refine the practice's proprietary AI governance and security framework, integrating industry standards with practical implementation experience.
- Research emerging AI risks, including those specific to agentic AI systems, LLM-based applications, MCP architectures, and AI supply chains.
- Develop reusable tools, templates, and accelerators (e.g., assessment questionnaires, control libraries, risk scoring models) to scale the practice.
- Contribute to thought leadership content: draft LinkedIn posts, white papers, blog articles, and conference presentation materials.
- Monitor regulatory and standards developments (EU AI Act, state-level AI legislation, ISO/IEC updates, OWASP LLM Top 10) and maintain a current knowledge base.
Technical Contribution (15–20%)
- Build proof-of-concept tools and demos using Python to illustrate governance and security concepts for clients (e.g., prompt injection demonstrations, model evaluation dashboards, automated compliance checks).
- Evaluate and test AI platforms, tools, and vendor solutions from a governance and security perspective.
- Support the practice lead's technical fluency development by preparing technical briefings, annotated code walkthroughs, and "translation" materials that bridge technical and executive audiences.
- Stay hands-on with AI/ML development trends: experiment with agentic frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI), RAG architectures, and model evaluation techniques.
WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
Required Qualifications
- 2–3 years of professional experience in one or more of the following areas: AI/ML engineering, data science, or cybersecurity.
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Data Science, Information Systems, Cybersecurity, Engineering, or a related field. Master's degree is a plus but not required.
- Working proficiency in Python and comfort navigating data science tooling (Jupyter, pandas, scikit-learn, or equivalent).
- Foundational understanding of machine learning concepts: supervised/unsupervised learning, model training and evaluation, overfitting, bias-variance tradeoff.
- Familiarity with LLM-based applications: understanding of how large language models work (at minimum: tokenization, embeddings, attention, fine-tuning vs. RAG vs. prompt engineering).
- Strong written and verbal communication skills—you must be able to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders clearly and concisely.
- Comfort working in ambiguity: this is a practice being built, not a mature team with fully defined processes. You need to be self-directed and resourceful.
Preferred Qualifications
- Exposure to AI governance or risk management frameworks (ISO/IEC 42001, NIST AI RMF, EU AI Act, OWASP LLM Top 10, MITRE ATLAS).
- Experience with agentic AI frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, CrewAI, AutoGen) or understanding of agent architectures and tool-use patterns.
- Understanding of MCP (Model Context Protocol) or similar protocols for AI system integration and the security implications thereof.
- Background in cybersecurity, including familiarity with security frameworks (NIST CSF, ISO 27001) and how they intersect with AI-specific risks.
- Experience in a consulting or professional services environment, including client-facing work and deliverable development.
- Relevant certifications such as: CISA, CISSP, CCSP, AWS/Azure AI certifications, or ISO 42001 Lead Implementer/Auditor.
- Bilingual English/Spanish is a strong plus.
THE KIND OF PERSON WHO THRIVES IN THIS ROLE
We are not looking for someone who fits neatly into a single box. The ideal candidate is a "bridger"—someone who can move fluidly between a technical deep dive and an executive conversation. Specifically:
- You're a builder, not just an analyst. When you see a gap in a process or a tool, your instinct is to prototype something—a script, a template, a dashboard—not just write a slide about it.
- You're curious about "why" and "so what." You don't just want to understand how a transformer model works; you want to understand what that means for how organizations should govern and secure it.
- You write well. A significant portion of this role involves producing written work—reports, frameworks, articles—and clarity of writing is non-negotiable.
- You're comfortable being the least experienced person in the room. You'll be in meetings with CIOs, CISOs, and senior partners. You need the confidence to contribute and the humility to learn.
WHAT WE OFFER
- Accelerated growth trajectory: You'll be building a practice from the ground up alongside senior leadership, gaining exposure and responsibility that would take years to earn in a larger, more established team.
- Investment in your learning: Budget for certifications, training programs, and conference attendance.
- Client diversity: Work across industries and with organizations at different stages of AI maturity—from Fortune 500 companies to mid-market firms navigating their first AI initiatives.

Job Roles at Highspring Companies
How to Get Visa Sponsorship in Highspring Visa Sponsorship USA
Target roles that match E-3 specialty occupation criteria
Consulting firms sponsor visas for roles requiring a specific degree in a directly related field. Focus your application on positions like management analyst, strategy consultant, or financial advisor where your degree field clearly maps to the job.
Lead with your Australian qualifications upfront
Highspring sponsors the E-3 visa exclusively, so Australian citizenship is your key differentiator. State it clearly in your cover letter and application. Hiring managers familiar with E-3 know the process is simpler than H-1B, which works in your favor.
Engage with Highspring's consulting practice areas directly
Professional services firms hire around specific practice areas and client needs. Research Highspring's consulting specializations and tailor your application to demonstrate expertise in those areas, not just general consulting skills.
Address sponsorship early but frame it as low-friction
Highspring has navigated E-3 sponsorship before, so the process is not unfamiliar to them. When raising the topic, emphasize that E-3 requires no lottery and has a straightforward employer process compared to other visa types.
Verify current openings through a platform with real sponsorship data
Not every consulting job listing flags visa sponsorship. Migrate Mate surfaces verified sponsors so you can filter by real sponsorship history, helping you focus on Highspring roles where E-3 is a genuine possibility rather than guessing from the job description.
Time your outreach to align with consulting hiring cycles
Consulting firms in professional services tend to ramp hiring around new client engagements and fiscal year starts. Applying or reaching out to recruiters during these windows increases your chances of landing a role that supports E-3 sponsorship.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Highspring sponsor H-1B visas?
Based on available sponsorship data, Highspring does not have a track record of H-1B sponsorship. The visa type Highspring has sponsored is the E-3, which is available exclusively to Australian citizens. If you are not Australian, the E-3 pathway at Highspring is not available to you, and H-1B sponsorship does not appear to be part of their current hiring approach.
What visa types does Highspring sponsor?
Highspring sponsors the E-3 visa for Australian nationals working in specialty occupations within its consulting and professional services business. There is no recorded history of Green Card or H-1B sponsorship. If you hold Australian citizenship and qualify for an E-3 specialty occupation role, Highspring is a viable target employer for your U.S. work visa.
What types of roles at Highspring are most likely to receive E-3 sponsorship?
In consulting and professional services, E-3 sponsorship typically flows to roles that clearly meet the specialty occupation standard, meaning positions requiring at least a bachelor's degree in a specific, directly related field. At Highspring, roles in management consulting, strategy, financial analysis, and technical advisory are the strongest candidates. General or administrative positions are far less likely to qualify.
How do I find open jobs at Highspring that offer visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is the most reliable way to find Highspring roles filtered by verified sponsorship history. General job boards don't surface sponsorship data, so it's easy to waste time applying to listings where visa support isn't actually on offer. Searching Highspring directly on Migrate Mate lets you see their E-3 track record and identify roles that are realistic opportunities for sponsored candidates.
How do I approach the visa sponsorship conversation when applying to Highspring?
Raise it early and frame it as straightforward. Highspring has sponsored the E-3 before, so the concept is not new to them. Explain that as an Australian citizen, you qualify for the E-3, which carries no lottery and involves a relatively simple employer filing process. Bring it up in your initial recruiter screen rather than waiting, so there are no late-stage surprises for either side.
