By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come. This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. With 1500+ customers in 60+ countries, strong product-market fit, and world-class investor support, we’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched. Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you. At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.
Role Overview
Harvey's competitive moat deepens every time we tighten our integration with the platforms at the cutting edge of AI. The cloud hyperscalers and frontier AI labs are unique players in our space — they are simultaneously distribution partners, co-development collaborators, co-investment vehicles, and co-marketing amplifiers. We need a leader who understands how to work these relationships across every dimension and turn them into durable, compounding advantages for Harvey. As Business Development Lead, Cloud & AI, you will own Harvey's relationships with the major cloud providers (AWS, Microsoft/Azure) and AI labs — driving joint go-to-market, co-product development, co-investment, and co-marketing initiatives. You will manage a team of dedicated partner managers and work cross-functionally with Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Sales to ensure these alliances deliver outsized commercial and strategic value.
Alliance Strategy & Relationship Management:
- Define and execute Harvey's cloud and AI alliance strategy, ensuring alignment with company-wide product and growth priorities
- Own the executive-level relationships with key cloud providers (AWS, Microsoft) and AI labs; serve as the primary point of contact for joint planning and escalation
- Develop and maintain joint business plans with each strategic partner, with clear objectives around pipeline, revenue, product integration, and brand amplification
- Track competitive dynamics across the cloud/AI ecosystem and advise leadership on partnership opportunities and threats
Co-Product Development & Integration:
- Partner with Harvey's Product and Engineering teams to drive technical integrations, joint solution development, and marketplace listings with cloud and AI partners
- Identify and advance co-investment opportunities — credits programs, joint development funds, and strategic investment vehicles that strengthen Harvey's position
- Ensure Harvey maximizes its standing in partner programs (e.g., AWS ISV Accelerate, Microsoft ISV Success) to unlock technical resources, funding, and GTM support
Co-Marketing & Co-Selling:
- Build and execute joint marketing programs with cloud and AI partners — case studies, webinars, events, analyst engagements, and co-branded content
- Drive co-selling motions with cloud partner sales teams, creating alignment between their field sellers and Harvey's direct sales organization
- Develop incentive structures and deal registration workflows that make it easy for partner field teams to bring Harvey into their accounts
Team Leadership & Scaling:
- Recruit, develop, and retain a team of dedicated partner managers (Microsoft, AI Labs, AWS); set clear goals and create a culture of ownership and strategic thinking
- Build repeatable frameworks for managing complex, multi-dimensional technology alliances
- Represent cloud and AI partners internally — ensuring their roadmaps, programs, and incentives are factored into Harvey's product and GTM planning
- Provide regular reporting to leadership on alliance health, co-sell pipeline, and strategic program milestones
What You Have
- 7–10+ years of experience in technology alliances, cloud partnerships, or strategic business development within enterprise SaaS, AI/ML, or platform ecosystems
- Proven track record of managing multi-dimensional partnerships with cloud hyperscalers (AWS, Azure/Microsoft, GCP) or AI labs — across co-sell, co-build, and co-market motions
- Strong technical fluency: you can engage credibly with product and engineering teams on integration architecture, API strategy, and platform capabilities
- Experience managing and developing teams of 3–5+ across alliance management and partner development functions
- Strong executive presence with the ability to build trusted relationships with VP+ stakeholders at major technology companies
- Analytical rigor — you are comfortable defining KPIs, building business cases for partnership investments, and using data to drive decisions
- Startup sensibility: you thrive in ambiguity, move fast, and are comfortable building alliance programs from scratch in a high-growth environment
Compensation
$240,000-$360,000 70/30 OTE

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship in Business Development Lead
Translate your Australian BD credentials clearly
U.S. hiring managers may not recognise Australian university names or titles like 'Business Development Manager.' Reframe your degree field and role scope explicitly so interviewers can assess specialty occupation eligibility without guesswork.
Address the specialty occupation question upfront
Business development roles face more scrutiny than engineering roles because the degree requirement isn't always obvious to officers. Bring a written job description that explicitly connects daily duties to your bachelor's qualification in business or a related field.
Negotiate sponsorship before accepting an offer
The LCA must be filed before your visa application, so sponsorship confirmation needs to happen during the offer stage, not after you've signed. Get the employer's legal contact name and confirm their timeline before you accept.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to manage your LCA
The LCA requires precise prevailing wage data and DOL FLAG portal submissions that many employers haven't handled before. Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service manages the entire process from offer to consulate appointment, reducing delays caused by employer-side errors.
Prepare for nonimmigrant intent questions specific to BD roles
Consular officers sometimes probe business development candidates about long-term U.S. ties given the client-relationship nature of the work. Document your Australian professional and personal connections to support your temporary intent at the interview.
E-3 Visa Business Development Lead: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Business Development Lead jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. It filters roles by E-3 sponsorship eligibility so you're not cold-applying to employers who won't sponsor. Business development positions appear across tech, SaaS, professional services, and healthcare sectors, and Migrate Mate surfaces the ones where sponsorship is already on the table.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Business Development Lead role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
Yes, provided the position genuinely requires a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as business administration, marketing, or economics. Roles where any degree is accepted regardless of field can face rejection. A detailed job description tying duties to your specific degree field strengthens the case significantly at the consulate.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Business Development Lead positions?
The E-3 has no lottery and no annual cap, so you can apply any time of year and start as soon as your visa is approved. The H-1B requires winning a lottery with roughly one-in-four odds and a mandatory October 1 start date. For Australian professionals in business development, the E-3 is a direct path that bypasses those constraints entirely.
What happens to my E-3 status if I change employers or move into a senior BD role?
Each employer change requires a new LCA and a new visa stamp if you're outside the U.S. There's no portability provision equivalent to H-1B's AC21 rule. If you're promoted into a materially different role, your employer should file a new LCA to reflect updated duties and prevailing wage, even within the same company.
