Who You'll Work With

You’ll join the Cloud team as part of our McKinsey Digital practice. This group brings together the best of McKinsey’s digital capabilities to help our clients use digital technology to transform their businesses.

As part of this group, you’ll join a global team working on everything from IT modernization and strategy to agile, cloud, cybersecurity, and digital transformation. You’ll typically work on projects across all industries and functions and will be fully integrated with the rest of our global firm.

You’ll also work with colleagues from across McKinsey & Company to help our clients deliver breakthrough products, experiences, and businesses, both on technology and non-technology topics.

Our office culture is casual and social, with an emphasis on education and innovation. We have the freedom to try new ideas, experiment and are expected to be constantly learning and growing. There is also a strong emphasis on mentoring others in the group, enabling them to grow and learn.

What You'll Do

You will play a critical role in driving the strategy, architecture, design and implementation of diverse public cloud initiatives (AWS, Azure, GCP).

In your role, your work will address our client’s toughest challenges and will involve close collaboration with C-suite stakeholders in driving impact for business critical and complex technical matters. You will be responsible for providing cutting-edge technology solutions to Fortune 500 enterprises.
Your work will encompass end-to-end solution delivery for our clients, starting from the design of enterprise-level, cloud technical strategies, to the definition and documentation of cloud architectures and the design and deployment of scalable and highly available services. You will work hands on, using your skills to devise infrastructure as code structure and to devise enterprise strategies around containerization, serverless and API management. You will be embedded in every aspect of the development and operational aspects in driving technological impact for our clients.
Finally, you will be an active learner, identifying new or better ways to deliver impact with people and technology. You will develop a growth mindset and relish opportunities to use familiar and unfamiliar technologies, closed source and open source software. You will embrace agile software development practices and contribute to growing and improving our engineering teams at McKinsey. Through cross functional collaboration, you will also hone your business and consulting skills through interactions with non-technical colleagues.
