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
EY’s Digital Risk practice is supporting leading Technology, Media & Telecommunications (TMT) companies as they scale cloud-native, AI-enabled, and platform-based operating models. Based in San Francisco, this role sits at the forefront of innovation, working with high-growth and global technology organizations operating on microservices architectures and AI-driven engineering environments.
We are seeking a Manager to support risk, compliance, and control transformation across highly automated and continuously evolving ecosystems. This role requires a combination of SOX knowledge, cloud architecture understanding, and familiarity with modern software development practices, including AI-assisted coding and product development lifecycles (PDLC/SDLC).
You will work closely with senior team members and client stakeholders, including finance, technology, and engineering teams, to support the design and implementation of scalable, audit-ready risk and compliance frameworks within complex technology environments.
Your key responsibilities
As a Manager in our Digital Risk practice, you will support the delivery of complex Digital Risk engagements, owning key workstreams and contributing to overall program execution across cloud-native environments. You will work closely with senior leadership and client stakeholders to drive risk and control initiatives within modern technology ecosystems.
In this role, you will:
- Execute and manage workstreams across cloud platforms, microservices architectures, and AI-enabled development environments, including risk assessments, control design, and testing activities
- Support client engagement teams by working directly with stakeholders (e.g., finance, IT, engineering) to deliver clear, actionable insights and recommendations
- Oversee day-to-day delivery, including coordination of team members, tracking progress, and ensuring quality and timeliness of deliverables
- Contribute to engagement performance, including resource management, status tracking, and supporting budgeting and forecasting activities
- Provide technical guidance within your areas of expertise, supporting team members on cloud, platform, and engineering risk considerations
- Design and evaluate controls across DevOps, CI/CD pipelines, SDLC/PDLC processes, and distributed platforms, including APIs, microservices, data environments, and AI-enabled systems
Skills and attributes for success
Demonstrate strong understanding of cloud-native architectures, distributed systems, and modern engineering practices, applying that knowledge to support the design and assessment of scalable control solutions.
Exhibit an AI-aware risk mindset, with the ability to identify risks introduced by AI-assisted development and automated engineering workflows. Demonstrate architecture fluency, interpreting system interactions and data flows to support control design and evaluation.
Build engineering credibility, partnering effectively with DevOps, platform, and data teams within complex environments. Apply your TMT industry knowledge to understand evolving risks within high-growth, technology-driven organizations.
Communicate clearly and effectively, translating technical risk concepts into practical business insights for client stakeholders while contributing to overall delivery quality.
Operate with attention to detail and accountability, managing competing priorities while contributing to high-quality outcomes and continuous improvement.
To qualify for the role you must have:
- A bachelor’s or master’s degree in business, accounting, computer science, engineering, or a related field
- A minimum of 5 years of experience in Digital Risk, IT risk, or technology consulting, with exposure to TMT sector clients
- Hands-on experience in cloud platforms (e.g., AWS), microservices architectures, DevOps/CI/CD, SDLC/PDLC, and distributed systems
- Experience supporting:
- IT general controls (ITGCs) and automated control environments
- Risk assessments, control testing, and control design activities
- Technology risk engagements within cloud-native or distributed environments
- Understanding of how regulatory and control frameworks (e.g., SOX, internal controls) apply within modern engineering environments
- Exposure to data platforms and AI-enabled development environments
- Willingness to travel at least 50%, including client-site travel. Flexibility to work extended hours as needed.
Ideally, you’ll also have:
Relevant certifications such as CPA, CISA, CISSP, CISM; cloud certifications (e.g., AWS) or AI-related certifications are a plus
What we look for
We’re looking for individuals who are comfortable operating at the intersection of risk, engineering, and technology, and who are motivated to build technical depth within modern, fast-evolving environments.
The right candidate will be able to work through complex problems, collaborate effectively with both technical teams and business stakeholders, and contribute to delivering clear, actionable insights.
A proactive mindset, strong attention to detail, and the ability to deliver high-quality, scalable solutions in fast-paced, high-growth environments will be key to success.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship as a Cloud Consultant
Align your degree to the role
PERM requires your degree field to match the job's stated requirements. A computer science or information systems degree maps cleanly to Cloud Consultant duties; an unrelated field may trigger a Request for Evidence at the I-140 stage.
Target employers with active PERM filings
Search the DOL's OFLC disclosure data to identify employers who have filed PERM cases for cloud or IT consultant roles. Companies already running that process understand the timeline and are far less likely to withdraw sponsorship mid-petition.
Search green card roles on Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate filters job listings by employers with active green card sponsorship history, so you spend time applying to Cloud Consultant roles where EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship is already in practice, not just listed as a possibility.
Confirm the prevailing wage before accepting
Your employer must pay at least the DOL prevailing wage for your role and location. Run your job title and ZIP code through the OFLC Wage Search before signing an offer to verify the wage level aligns with what PERM will require.
Ask about concurrent filing eligibility
If your priority date is current, USCIS allows concurrent filing of the I-140 immigrant petition and I-485 adjustment of status. For EB-3 candidates from most countries, this can compress the final green card wait significantly.
Document cloud certifications as supporting evidence
AWS, Azure, and GCP certifications strengthen your I-140 petition by corroborating the specialty occupation claim. Include them in your initial PERM filing package so your employer's attorney has them when building the record.
Green Card Cloud Consultant: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Cloud Consultant role qualify as a specialty occupation for green card purposes?
Yes. Cloud Consultant positions typically require at least a bachelor's degree in computer science, information systems, or a related technical field, which satisfies the specialty occupation standard under PERM and EB-2 or EB-3 criteria. The DOL evaluates the job description during PERM review, so the offer letter and role duties must reflect that degree requirement explicitly.
How does EB-3 green card sponsorship differ from H-1B sponsorship for Cloud Consultants?
H-1B visa is a temporary nonimmigrant status lasting up to six years, subject to an annual lottery with a 65,000 cap. EB-3 green card sponsorship leads to permanent residency with no annual cap on petitions filed. The tradeoff is a longer processing timeline: PERM labor certification alone takes six to eighteen months before USCIS even reviews the I-140 petition.
What is the PERM labor certification process for a Cloud Consultant role?
Your employer files an Application for Permanent Employment Certification with the DOL, demonstrating that no qualified U.S. worker is available for the role at the prevailing wage. This involves a supervised recruitment campaign, typically lasting 30 to 60 days. Once certified, the employer files the I-140 immigrant petition with USCIS and you become eligible to file for adjustment of status.
Where can I find Cloud Consultant jobs with verified green card sponsorship?
Migrate Mate aggregates Cloud Consultant roles from employers with documented green card sponsorship history, so you can filter specifically for EB-2 and EB-3 opportunities rather than sifting through listings where sponsorship is ambiguous. This saves significant time compared to cold-applying and asking hiring managers about PERM willingness after the fact.
Can my employer start the green card process while I'm on an H-1B?
Yes, and starting early is strategically important. An employer can file PERM while you're in valid H-1B status, and once the I-140 is approved with a priority date more than 365 days old, your H-1B can be extended beyond the standard six-year cap under AC21 provisions. This protects your status while your green card case moves through the queue.
