Job Description

EY Fabric Growth & Adoption is responsible for driving real-world adoption of EY Fabric products by working at the intersection of:

  • Client needs and feedback
  • Platform capabilities
  • Product evolution

The team focuses on removing friction, accelerating delivery, and feeding improvements back into the platform, ensuring that client-driven solutions become reusable, scalable, and integrated into core product offerings.

Responsibilities

Client-Driven Delivery

  • Partner with PreSales and client-facing teams to capture real-world friction points and unmet requirements.
  • Analyze root causes and define pragmatic solutions (feature improvements, integrations, automations).
  • Deliver working solutions in short cycles ( 1–4 weeks) and ensure they are merged into product codebases

Solution Design & Implementation

  • Design and implement solutions across infrastructure, scripting, and application layers.
  • Provide technical guidance aligned with platform standards and best practices.
  • Navigate hybrid and cloud-based environments within EY Fabric.

Product & Offering Influence

  • Actively review new and existing offerings across Growth & Adoption.
  • Provide structured feedback on solution design, usability, and readiness.
  • Ensure alignment across teams before releases.

Continuous Improvement

  • Identify improvement opportunities in high-usage offerings.
  • Contribute fixes, enhancements, or automation to improve adoption and user experience.
  • Feed field learnings back into engineering, documentation, and runbooks.

Collaboration & Leadership

  • Work across team boundaries (Product, Engineering, Operations, PreSales).
  • Translate technical scenarios into clear language for business stakeholders.
  • Mentor team members and contribute to shared knowledge and best practices.

Skills

Core

  • Excellent communication skills (technical and business audiences)
  • Strong documentation and structured communication capabilities
  • Ability to quickly understand complex systems and codebases

Technical

  • Broad technical capability ( breadth over depth) across:
    • Infrastructure and cloud platforms (Azure preferred)
    • Scripting and automation (PowerShell, Python, Bash)
    • Application-level development and integration
  • Strong understanding of:
    • CI/CD and DevOps practices
    • Code and release management (Git, GitHub, Azure DevOps)
  • Experience using AI-assisted development tools to accelerate delivery - MANDATORY

Desired Experience

  • Experience working in large organizations with complex processes and dependencies
  • Experience in Agile environments and fast iteration cycles
  • Experience designing, integrating, and supporting solutions at scale
  • Experience in API-driven ecosystems and platform-based architectures
  • Experience working close to clients, PreSales, or product teams

Desired Certifications (Optional)

  • Microsoft Azure certifications
  • DevOps or Cloud Architecture certifications
  • Any certification related to automation, infrastructure, or platform engineering

What You Bring

Who You Are

  • A finisher — you take ownership and ensure work gets completed despite complexity
  • Highly self-directed — you identify next steps without waiting for direction
  • Able to navigate large organizations and remove blockers
  • Precise in execution — you follow instructions and deliver reliably

Ways of Working

  • Bias for action — you prioritize delivery over over-analysis
  • Comfortable switching contexts (infra, code, product, AI tooling)
  • Collaborative and aligned with broader platform goals
  • Focused on impact, not just activity

Success Looks Like

  • Client friction points are resolved within short delivery cycles
  • Solutions are integrated into product repositories (not left as one-offs)
  • Offerings improve continuously based on field feedback
  • The team is recognized as a trusted technical voice in product and adoption
