## Job description

Who are you? You're a seasoned technical consultant who's ready to lead, not just deliver. You've run migration programs end to end, owned the client relationship and guided delivery teams through complex transformation work. You bring deep AWS expertise, the consulting instincts to manage stakeholders at every level, and the leadership presence to mentor others while staying hands-on yourself. You've led large-scale migrations, modernised legacy platforms, and know your way around disaster recovery, cost optimisation, and AI-driven delivery.

## What you'll do

- Leading the execution of migration and modernisation programs
- Leading workshops and delivery sessions with clients and internal teams
- Day-to-day leadership of delivery teams and the primary client relationship
- Coaching for Senior Consultants and contributions to Cevo's reusable IP
- End-to-end delivery for client engagements: scope, timeline, quality
- Migration assessments, discovery workshops, and architecture reviews that shape transformation roadmaps
- Hands-on technical work alongside strategic guidance
- Input into scoping, estimating, and proposals with the Growth team

## What you'll bring

- Extensive hands-on AWS experience: landing zones, multi-account architecture, networking, and migration tooling (MGN, DMS, AWS Transform)
- Proven consulting leadership experience: workshops, stakeholder management, C-level reporting
- Experience running Well-Architected Framework reviews and cloud maturity assessments
- Strong grasp of modernisation patterns: containerisation, serverless, database decomposition
- IaC fluency (CloudFormation, CDK, or Terraform) and CI/CD experience
- Scripting skills (Python/bash) for automation
- Comfort with AI-assisted and agentic delivery tools (Amazon Q, GitHub Copilot)
- AWS Solution Architect Professional/Specialty (a strong plus)
- FinOps experience is highly regarded

If you want to combine consulting, leadership, and hands-on cloud expertise to help clients genuinely transform their platforms, this is your next role.

## About Cevo Services

## Company Overview
- **One-liner**: Cevo is an Australian-owned AWS Premier Consulting Partner that helps organizations design and deliver modern cloud platforms, unlock data for insight, and apply AI where it creates real value.
- **Entity Type**: Private (Bootstrapped/Profit-funded)
- **Headquarters**: Melbourne, Victoria, Australia (with offices in City and Haymarket)
- **Founded**: 2016
- **Founders**: Not publicly available

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: IT Services and IT Consulting, with deep specialization in Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud infrastructure, data intelligence, and AI/agentic systems.
- **Target customers**: B2B, primarily mid-market to enterprise organizations across financial services, retail, energy & utilities, independent software vendors (ISVs), government, and education sectors.
- **Mission/purpose statement**: "Turn transformation from a one-off program into a lasting capability to adapt, innovate and deliver better outcomes." The company believes technology, businesses, and careers "should never stand still."

## Products & Services
Cevo organizes its offerings into four core capabilities, delivered as consulting and managed services:

- **AI & Agentic Systems**: Move from pilots to production-ready AI and agentic systems that automate work, support decisions, and integrate safely into everyday operations with security and governance built-in.
- **Data Intelligence**: Build trusted data foundations including strategy, platform, integration, analytics, and governance, enabling dashboards and insights used daily and AI that scales with confidence.
- **Intelligent Modernisation**: Evolve legacy applications and build new digital products using modern architecture, product thinking, and AI-enabled delivery, reducing technical debt and increasing speed, resilience, and security.
- **Cloud Evolution**: Design clear cloud pathways for complex environments, accelerate assessment with AI, and embed secure foundations and automation so performance, cost, and security keep improving long after migration.

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available (private company)
- **Key Metric**: Annual revenue of approximately **$8.3 million** (LinkedIn estimate); has partnered with **200+ organizations** across Australia since 2016.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: AWS Premier Tier Consulting Partner (highest tier), with deep specialization in AI, data, and cloud. No external funding rounds are publicly listed; the company appears to be profit-funded/bootstrapped.
- **Growth Signals**: LinkedIn followers grew +11.9% year-over-year to 6,972; actively hiring for senior and principal-level consultant roles across AI, cloud, and data practices. The company is expanding its AI-focused service line ("AI Everywhere" approach).

## Competitive Advantages
- **AWS Premier Partner status**: The highest tier of AWS partnership, signaling deep technical credibility and preferred access to AWS resources, training, and co-selling opportunities.
- **"AI Everywhere" approach**: Cevo embeds AI into every stage of delivery—not just to enhance what they build, but to accelerate how they build (faster discovery, better design, higher-quality delivery, continuous upskilling).
- **Continuous evolution philosophy**: The company’s entire model is built around making modernization a lasting capability, not a one-off project. This differentiates them from traditional consultancies that focus on fixed-scope engagements.
- **Australian-owned, local focus**: Deep understanding of the Australian regulatory and business landscape, particularly in financial services, government, and utilities.

## Strategic Focus
- **AI-first delivery**: Embedding AI into every stage of consulting delivery, from discovery through to production, as a core differentiator.
- **Building internal capability**: Cevo’s model emphasizes empowering customer teams, not just delivering for them—creating lasting change rather than dependency.
- **Expanding agentic systems**: Moving beyond basic AI pilots into production-ready autonomous systems that can automate complex workflows.
- **People and culture investment**: Heavy focus on learning, development budgets, knowledge sharing (Hive Mind sessions), and creating a community-driven consultancy culture.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Built on knowledge sharing and collaboration. The company hosts "Hive Mind" sessions for employees to share learnings, and emphasizes open-minded feedback as a "cherished gift." Values include insatiable curiosity, freedom to experiment, and a people-first approach.
- **Work model**: Flexible hybrid working environment that respects work-life balance.
- **Learning & development**: Dedicated learning and development budget, days off per year solely for L&D, unlimited access to a learning platform, and POD leadership programs.
- **Community**: Sponsorship of local tech meetups, regular social events, transparent business updates, and a referral bonus program.
- **Wellbeing**: Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for mental health support.
- **Recruitment process**: Described as a two-way conversation—30-minute chat with People & Culture, a 1-hour technical interview with a technical leader, and a face-to-face session with a senior leadership team member.
- **Employer rating**: 4.2/5.0 on LinkedIn (19 reviews), with breakdowns: Work-Life 4.4, Compensation 4.2, Culture 4.1, Career 3.8.
- **Notable perks**: Regular social events, transparent communication, and a strong emphasis on celebrating achievements both internally and externally.
