# Senior Consultant - AI & Agentic Systems (AWS) at Cevo Services

- **Company:** Cevo Services
- **Location:** Sydney, Australia
- **Employment:** full-time
- **Work type:** hybrid
- **Posted:** 2026-06-18
- **Last confirmed live:** 2026-09-09

## Job description

Senior AI Engineer / Forward Deployed Engineer

Cevo is looking for an AI Engineer/ Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) who sits at the intersection of consulting, cloud architecture, software engineering and AI delivery. This is not a traditional project role. You will embed directly with enterprise clients across financial services, energy and government to understand their business outcomes, build production-grade AI solutions and iterate rapidly until real value is delivered.

## What You'll Do

- Embed with enterprise clients to define business outcomes, success metrics and deliver rapid prototypes, compressing discovery-to-build cycles into weeks
- Design and build agentic AI systems using Anthropic and AWS: RAG pipelines, multi-agent orchestration, LLM-powered assistants, prompt frameworks and evaluation pipelines for hallucination and reasoning quality
- Work hands-on with Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker for model development, fine-tuning, vector retrieval and lifecycle management
- Deploy production AI solutions end-to-end, integrating into enterprise platforms (CRMs, ERPs, data lakes) without handing off to another team
- Build responsible AI by design: explainability, bias testing, human-in-the-loop controls and compliance with APRA, ASIC and CPS 230/234

Required Experience

- 5–8+ years in software engineering, data science and ML
- 2+ years hands-on GenAI development: LLMs, RAG, agents, evaluation
- Demonstrated ability to deliver production-grade AI systems, end to end
- Strong Python and SQL
- Strong experience with Amazon Bedrock and Bedrock Agents
- Experience deploying ML models into production
- Understanding of APIs and AI services across the AWS ecosystem
- Strong communication and client-facing skills

Highly Desirable

- Experience in a Forward Deployed, embedded consulting or solutions engineering capacity
- SageMaker Pipelines
- Vector databases and Graph RAG
- Agent orchestration frameworks
- Regulated industry experience (financial services, energy, government)
- Model risk management experience
- Experience building AI platforms, assistants or internal tooling

## 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.
