A career in technology that will change the world. At EY, it's yours to build.

Could you help solve the world’s toughest challenges? Imagine working alongside businesses that are using artificial intelligence (AI) to detect cancer earlier in patients. Imagine helping clients to prevent cyber hacks by implementing blockchain technology. Imagine working with advanced analytics to help farmers increase food production.

It’s meaningful work, every single day. You’ll drive long-term value using technology across every industry, helping clients find inventive solutions to their business problems. You’ll help them grow, while discovering limitless opportunities to develop yourself.

As well as developing your technical expertise, you’ll learn about business strategy and gain industry knowledge. You’ll collaborate with different cross-functional teams, with the freedom and ability to explore new prototypes and design your own solutions. You’ll be transforming businesses, one idea at a time.

You'll have a wide-ranging choice of technology roles across our business. So whether you're a data specialist, a software engineer, a tax technologist, a technology consultant or a solution architect, you’ll find a technology career as unique as you are.

We invest in our people and technology to power the human enterprise of the future

A technology career is about far more than leading-edge innovations. It’s about the application of these technologies in the real world to make a real, meaningful impact. That’s why EY is investing more than ever before in technology and our people, to build the transformative mindset and technology skill set needed to analyze, innovate and think and act globally.

This includes the launch of our new, first-of-its-kind EY Tech MBA, in collaboration with Hult International Business School. It builds on the success of our EY Badges program, which helps our people develop future-focused skills in areas such as big data and analytics, blockchain, AI, intelligent automation, and cybersecurity.

Work with global organizations, advanced technologies and transformative leaders

In a technology career at EY, you could be collaborating with global organizations like GE Digital, IBM, Microsoft, Cisco, LinkedIn and SAP. You’ll help to set a new standard for the way we can use emerging technologies, such as AI, blockchain, internet of things, and data analytics.

As well as having access to leading-edge technologies, you get to work with some of the brightest minds across each industry to explore powerful new ideas. You’ll have access to professionals in different disciplines, all working together to make a real impact on the way the world works today.

Today’s technologies, tomorrow’s solutions

Forget everything you think you know about the work we do, and the systems and tools we create to do it. Today, careers at EY are about so much more than spreadsheets, number-crunching and accounting applications. We put bots, algorithms and machines to work so that you can do more interesting and impactful work.

Faster transactions with blockchain

The potential of blockchain is immense: it can streamline EY clients’ business processes and help to reimagine what a secure network is. Working with blockchain we help businesses to mitigate their risk of cybersecurity issues, helping bring more confidence to markets.

Seizing the upside of analytics

Even digital “non-natives” are benefitting from analytics embedded into the heart of today’s businesses. You’ll help clients to use analytics in many innovative ways: to help drive investment decisions; to mitigate risk; to improve customer satisfaction; and to increase the value of interactions. With the value of data ever increasing, it’s little wonder it’s at the heart of what we do.

Embracing intelligent automation

Robotic process automation is having a transformative impact on the world we live in. There are upsides, such as increased efficiencies, increased output and cost reduction, but there are also human implications. In an EY career, you’ll work with clients to make positive change by helping to automate mundane, time-sapping work in every industry — from tax to HR, and supply chain to regulatory compliance. Thanks to robotic, autonomous systems replacing human tasks, you’ll help to unlock deeper insights and solutions to problems.

Artificial intelligence, human impact

At some point in the future, humans will have more daily interactions with bots than they do with each other. When we talk about a career at EY in AI, we believe it’s less about the technology itself, and more about its application. We really are at the tip of the iceberg in understanding the impact it can have across sectors such as healthcare, clean energy and even food production. Here at EY, we say that bots are built, but AI is applied. Your career in AI will give you a global platform to work with a technology that could eventually change not just the world — but the health of our planet.
