At EY, we’re all in to shape your future with confidence.
We’ll help you succeed in a globally connected powerhouse of diverse teams and take your career wherever you want it to go. Join EY and help to build a better working world.
The Opportunity
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly transforming how organizations operate, and with that transformation comes an entirely new frontier of security, governance, and risk management challenges. Organizations are grappling with securing AI pipelines, managing model-level risks, operationalizing AI governance programs, and navigating an evolving regulatory landscape specific to AI technologies. As a Manager within EY's Cyber practice focused on AI Security, you will lead client engagements that span AI risk assessments, AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM), AI governance program design, and secure AI architecture. This role offers the opportunity to drive meaningful client outcomes, lead high-performing teams, and help organizations navigate one of the most complex and consequential frontiers in cybersecurity—while building a differentiated practice at the intersection of AI and security.
Your Key Responsibilities
As a Manager on the AI Security team, you will lead and manage AI security and AI governance engagements across a range of industries. You will oversee AI security assessments, direct AI-SPM implementations, and guide clients through the design of governance frameworks, policies, and controls that enable responsible and secure AI deployment. You will work closely with client leadership—including CISOs, CIOs, and AI program owners—to evaluate AI risk postures, facilitate workshops and architecture reviews, and translate technical findings into prioritized, executive-ready recommendations. You will provide hands-on direction in the configuration and integration of AI security tooling, including platforms and harnesses, and embed security within clients' AI development and deployment pipelines.
As a Manager, you will be responsible for managing engagement workstreams, leading and mentoring teams of Senior Consultants and Consultants, and delivering high-quality client service within established timelines and budgets. You will monitor the rapidly evolving AI threat landscape, regulatory developments—including the EU AI Act and NIST AI RMF—and emerging AI security tooling, translating insights into actionable guidance for clients and EY's practice. In addition, you will contribute to business development activities, including proposal development, client presentations, thought leadership and account growth initiatives, and collaborate with professionals across EY's Cybersecurity and AI capabilities to deliver integrated solutions.
Skills and Attributes for Success
- Deep knowledge of AI/ML systems, architectures, and deployment patterns—including LLMs, generative AI, and MLOps pipelines—and the security risks they introduce.

- Working knowledge of foundational cybersecurity frameworks—including NIST CSF, NIST 800-53, and ISO 27001/27002—as applied within AI-enabled environments.
- Experience supporting or leading client-facing cybersecurity or AI security engagements.
- Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills.
- Willingness to travel based on client and business needs; travel estimated at 25–50%.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as an AI Consultant
Document your AI specialization before applying
Gather publications, patents, project documentation, and performance reviews that demonstrate specialized AI expertise. PERM requires your employer to prove no qualified U.S. worker is available, so your credentials need to show a genuinely specialized skill set.
Target employers with active PERM filing history
Search OFLC disclosure data for companies that have filed PERM applications under SOC codes for AI and computer occupations. Employers who have sponsored before understand the timeline and are far less likely to withdraw an offer mid-process.
Distinguish EB-2 from EB-3 early in negotiations
Ask hiring managers whether the role is classified as requiring a master's degree or equivalent. EB-2 sponsorship can significantly shorten your priority date wait for most countries outside India and China, so the job description's education requirement matters.
Use Migrate Mate to filter sponsoring AI employers
Search for AI Consultant roles on Migrate Mate, which surfaces employers with verified green card sponsorship history. This lets you focus applications on companies that have already committed to the PERM process rather than negotiating sponsorship from scratch.
Verify the prevailing wage before your offer stage
Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up the DOL prevailing wage for AI Consultant roles in your target city. Your offered salary must meet or exceed this threshold for PERM certification, so flagging a shortfall before signing saves everyone significant time.
Confirm your O*NET classification with your employer
PERM filings reference O*NET occupation codes, and misclassification can trigger DOL audits or denials. Verify that your employer's labor attorney is filing under an AI or computer systems analyst code that accurately reflects your consulting duties.
Green Card AI Consultant: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an AI Consultant role qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship?
Both categories are possible depending on how the employer defines the position. EB-2 applies when the role genuinely requires a master's degree or its equivalent in a specialized field like machine learning or data engineering. EB-3 covers roles where a bachelor's degree suffices. Your employer's labor attorney determines the classification during the PERM filing, so the job description's education requirement is the deciding factor.
How does green card sponsorship differ from H-1B for AI Consultants?
H-1B visa grants temporary status in two- or three-year increments and subjects you to an annual lottery with no guarantee of selection. EB-2 and EB-3 green card sponsorship via PERM leads to permanent residency with no lottery and no cap at the petition stage for most nationalities. The tradeoff is timeline: PERM plus I-140 approval typically takes one to two years before you can file for adjustment of status, compared to an H-1B that can start within months.
Which employers are most likely to sponsor AI Consultants for a green card?
Technology companies, management consulting firms with dedicated AI practices, and financial institutions building internal AI teams are the most active green card sponsors for this role. The strongest signal is prior PERM filing history in DOL disclosure data under computer occupations. Migrate Mate aggregates this sponsorship data so you can filter AI Consultant openings by employers who have already completed PERM filings, rather than relying on employers to self-report.
Can an AI Consultant on OPT or H-1B start the green card process simultaneously?
Yes. Nothing in the PERM or I-140 process requires you to be in a particular nonimmigrant status to begin. Many candidates start PERM while on H-1B and file for adjustment of status once the priority date becomes current. If you're on OPT, your employer can begin PERM while you're still authorized to work, but you'll need a valid status throughout the process, so timing your H-1B petition alongside PERM is common.
What happens if my employer withdraws green card sponsorship after PERM is approved?
If USCIS has already approved your I-140 petition and it has been pending for at least 180 days, you may be able to port your priority date to a new employer under AC21 portability rules, provided the new role is in the same or a similar occupational category. For AI Consultants, this typically means moving to another computer systems or AI-related role. Consulting an immigration attorney immediately after any employer change protects your place in the priority date queue.
