Job Title: AI Finance - Senior - Tech Consulting - Location Open

 

Whole industries have been disrupted and transformed in recent years by changing technologies, advanced analytics and the need for better insight. EY is helping businesses realize the value they can gain from their IT investments. We deliver exceptional client service — providing advice on how technology, finance process efficiency and enterprise intelligence contribute to performance improvement, as well as how AI can act as a multiplying effect during major program transformations.

 

The opportunity

 

The AI Finance Senior will be building the future of AI-powered finance solutions—from autonomous variance analysis and intelligent forecasting to agentic workflow automation. This role sits at the intersection of consulting impact and true product engineering: your code doesn't disappear after a project ends—it ships, scales, and improves over time. You’ll work at the forefront of generative and agentic AI while learning how these technologies solve real finance problems—combining the innovation of a tech startup with the scale and impact of EY.

 
In this role, you will interact with business stakeholders to evaluate business models, processes, and operations. You will gather, understand, and analyze business requirements, translating them into technical specifications. Your expertise in specific technology platforms will be crucial in providing in-depth analysis related to implementation, customization, and optimization.

  • Proficiency in data integration, data transformation, and data modeling tools and techniques
