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 the Northeast Region, 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 H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Business Consultant
Verify your degree supports specialty occupation
USCIS requires your degree field to directly relate to the consulting work you'll perform. A general business or management degree typically qualifies, but a degree in an unrelated field can trigger a Request for Evidence.
Search LCA filings by consulting role
Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up Labor Condition Applications filed under SOC codes for management analysts and business consultants. This shows which employers actively sponsor this role and what wage levels they've certified.
Target employers with H-1B filing history
Use Migrate Mate to filter Business Consultant jobs by employers with verified H-1B sponsorship history, so you're applying to companies that have already navigated the filing process for this role rather than starting that conversation from scratch.
Clarify project-based work before accepting an offer
Consulting roles often involve client sites. Your H-1B petition must cover every worksite listed in the LCA. Get written confirmation from your employer that they'll file amended LCAs and update USCIS if your client assignments change locations.
Time your application around the cap registration window
H-1B cap registration opens in March each year for an October 1 start date. If you're on OPT and it expires before October 1, confirm with your employer that cap-gap protection will cover you through the transition.
Document billable hours and client deliverables as evidence
When your employer prepares the I-129 petition, contemporaneous records of consulting engagements, project scopes, and client contracts strengthen the specialty occupation argument. Start organizing these documents as soon as you receive an offer.
H-1B Visa Business Consultant: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Business Consultant role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, if the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in a specific field such as business administration, management, finance, or a directly related discipline. USCIS scrutinizes consulting titles more closely than engineering or IT roles, so employers need to document that the duties require specialized theoretical knowledge, not just general business experience.
How do I find Business Consultant jobs at employers who actually sponsor H-1B visas?
Browse Business Consultant roles on Migrate Mate, which filters listings by employers with verified H-1B Labor Condition Application filing history. This removes the guesswork of cold-applying to companies that may decline to sponsor, so your applications go to employers who have already committed to the filing process for this role type.
Can a consulting firm sponsor my H-1B if I'll be placed at client sites?
Yes, but the employer must file a separate Labor Condition Application for each worksite location where you'll perform work. USCIS requires that the LCA and I-129 petition reflect your actual place of employment. If your assignments shift to new client locations, your employer may need to file an amended petition, which affects your timeline and stability.
What happens to my H-1B if my consulting contract ends or I'm between projects?
Your H-1B status is tied to your employer, not your client assignment. If your employment continues and your employer keeps you on payroll, your status remains valid during bench periods. USCIS does not require continuous billable work, but your employer must maintain the employer-employee relationship and pay the prevailing wage certified on the LCA.
How does the prevailing wage requirement affect Business Consultant H-1B sponsorship?
Your employer must certify through the LCA that your offered wage meets or exceeds the prevailing wage for your SOC code and work location. You can check current prevailing wage levels using the OFLC Wage Search. Wage Level I applies to entry-level roles and Level IV to senior positions, so the specific duties in your job description determine which level applies to your petition.
