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
As digital transformation accelerates and the security architecture landscape grows increasingly complex, organizations require senior leaders who can shape security strategy at an enterprise level, build lasting client relationships, and drive the development of innovative, scalable security architectures. The consequences of security architecture decisions—how systems are designed, how data flows, how access is governed—are felt for years and touch every corner of the enterprise. As a Senior Manager within EY's Cyber practice focused on Enterprise Security Architecture, you will lead strategic client engagements, cultivate executive-level relationships, and contribute to the growth of EY's architecture practice through business development, thought leadership, and talent development. This role is an opportunity to operate at the intersection of deep technical authority and senior advisory influence—shaping security architecture outcomes for some of the world's leading organizations.
Your Key Responsibilities
As a Senior Manager on the Enterprise Security Architecture team, you will direct and oversee complex security architecture engagements across a range of industries, serving as the primary point of accountability for engagement quality, client satisfaction, and delivery of high-quality work products within budget and established deadlines.
You will lead architecture assessments, Zero Trust transformation programs, cloud security architecture initiatives, and security governance engagements—bringing strategic direction and technical depth to each. You will engage at the executive level with client stakeholders—including CISOs, CIOs, Chief Architects, and Boards—to frame security architecture challenges, present findings and recommendations, and build the trusted advisor relationships that drive long-term client value. You will ensure that engagement teams produce technically rigorous, business-aligned deliverables that translate complex architecture decisions into clear, actionable guidance.
As a Senior Manager, you will play a leading role in business development—identifying and pursuing new opportunities, shaping proposals, leading client presentations, and expanding relationships within existing accounts. You will contribute to the strategic direction and growth of EY's Cyber practice by developing service offerings, producing thought leadership, and representing EY at industry forums and client events. You will lead, mentor, and develop teams of Managers, Senior Consultants, and Consultants, fostering a culture of technical excellence, continuous learning, and collaborative client service. You will also collaborate across EY's Cyber and broader technology capabilities to bring integrated, cross-disciplinary solutions to clients facing complex enterprise challenges.

- Strong business development instincts, with experience identifying opportunities, developing proposals, and contributing to account growth strategies.
- Ability to translate complex security architecture concepts into compelling narratives for executive and board-level audiences.
- Track record of leading high-performing teams, developing talent, and managing multiple concurrent engagement workstreams.
- Strong presentation, facilitation, and executive stakeholder management skills, with experience presenting to C-suite and senior leadership audiences.
- Demonstrated contribution to thought leadership, market positioning, and practice-building within a consulting or enterprise environment.
- Commitment to quality, innovation, and the continuous development of both people and practice capabilities.
To Qualify for the Role, You Must Have

- A track record of leading client-facing security architecture engagements, managing senior client relationships, and driving successful delivery outcomes.
- Experience contributing to business development efforts, including proposal development, opportunity pursuit, and account growth.
- Strong written, verbal, and executive presentation skills.
- Willingness to travel based on client and business needs; travel estimated at 25–50%.

- Experience designing and overseeing implementation of Zero Trust architectures, including microsegmentation, identity-centric access, and continuous verification at enterprise scale.

- Deep familiarity with regulatory and compliance requirements—such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, FISMA, GDPR, or NYDFS—and the ability to advise clients on their implications for enterprise security architecture strategy.
- Experience managing senior executive relationships and serving in a trusted advisor capacity across complex, multi-year client engagements.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Green Card Sponsorship in Enterprise Architect
Align your credentials to EB-2 requirements
Enterprise Architect roles commonly qualify under EB-2 when the position requires an advanced degree in computer science, information systems, or a related field. A master's degree or a bachelor's plus five years of progressive experience strengthens your petition significantly.
Search employers with active PERM histories
Target organizations that have filed PERM applications for Enterprise Architect or related IT architecture roles before. Repeat filers understand the process and are less likely to abandon sponsorship mid-application. Use Migrate Mate to filter by companies with green card sponsorship history in this role category.
Verify your role matches the PERM job description
DOL requires the PERM job description to reflect the actual minimum requirements for the role, not your personal qualifications. If your employer lists overly specific duties or requirements tailored to you, PERM audits become more likely and your case can be delayed.
Benchmark your salary against the OFLC prevailing wage
Before accepting an offer, confirm your offered salary meets or exceeds the DOL prevailing wage for Enterprise Architect at the correct wage level in your work location. Use the OFLC Wage Search to check this yourself before your employer files the LCA.
Understand the EB-3 path if your degree is a bachelor's
If you hold a U.S.-equivalent bachelor's degree without additional graduate credentials, EB-3 is likely your track. There's no annual cap on EB-3 petitions, though priority date backlogs apply by country of birth and can affect your wait significantly.
Negotiate sponsorship timing into your offer discussions
Ask whether your employer will file PERM within your first year. Many companies delay until after a probationary period. Starting PERM earlier gives your priority date more time to become current, which matters most if you were born in India or China.
Green Card Enterprise Architect: Frequently Asked Questions
Does an Enterprise Architect role typically qualify for EB-2 or EB-3 sponsorship?
Most Enterprise Architect positions qualify for EB-2 because they genuinely require an advanced degree or a bachelor's degree plus substantial progressive experience in IT architecture or a related discipline. If your employer can justify that the role requires a master's degree, EB-2 is the stronger path. EB-3 remains an option for roles where a bachelor's degree satisfies the minimum requirement.
How does PERM green card sponsorship differ from H-1B sponsorship for this role?
H-1B visa is a temporary nonimmigrant status requiring renewal every three years with no path to permanence on its own. PERM is the first step toward a green card, meaning lawful permanent residency. There's no lottery for employment-based green cards, and EB-3 has no annual petition cap, though per-country backlogs affect how long you wait after approval. PERM also requires your employer to complete a formal DOL recruitment process before filing.
What does the PERM recruitment process mean for Enterprise Architect candidates?
Before your employer can file a PERM application with DOL, they must advertise the position and document that no qualified U.S. workers applied. For professional roles like Enterprise Architect, this typically includes Sunday newspaper ads, job board postings, and internal notices over a 30 to 180-day window. The job description used in ads must match the petition, so any changes to your role after filing can create complications.
How can I find employers that sponsor green cards for Enterprise Architect roles?
Migrate Mate lets you search for Enterprise Architect jobs filtered specifically by employers with employment-based green card sponsorship history, including PERM filings in this occupation category. This saves you from applying to companies that sponsor H-1B but have no experience with PERM, which is a common mismatch that delays or derails sponsorship.
Can my employer sponsor my green card if I'm currently on OPT or H-1B?
Yes. PERM sponsorship is available regardless of your current nonimmigrant status. If you're on H-1B, your employer can begin PERM while you maintain your existing status. If you're on OPT, your employer can file PERM concurrently, though you'll need valid work authorization throughout the process. USCIS allows you to extend H-1B status beyond the six-year cap once your I-140 is approved and your priority date meets certain thresholds under AC21.
