About CloudBees

CloudBees helps organizations build, run, and govern software factories, giving enterprises the confidence to ship software better, faster, and safer.

Writing code is no longer the bottleneck. Governing what reaches production and validating its impact is. As enterprises adopt agentic coding, software is created faster than most teams can review, secure, and validate. Without consistent governance, organizations risk shipping code they cannot explain, audit, or trust.

CloudBees addresses this challenge without asking teams to replace the tools they already use. Across every toolchain a customer runs, CloudBees makes each change, human or AI, visible, auditable, and accountable before it reaches production. CloudBees Unify is the product behind this: a governance layer, with context and control-plane capabilities, that enforces consistent policy and evidence across every tool, team, and workflow.

Founded in 2010, CloudBees is backed by Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, Bridgepoint Capital, HSBC, Golub Capital, Delta-v Capital, Matrix Partners, and Lightspeed Venture Partners.

About the Role

At CloudBees, our Consultants are strategic partners in helping organizations transform how software is built, secured, and delivered. As a member of the Services team, you will work at the intersection of DevSecOps, Platform Engineering, AI, and software delivery innovation, helping customers accelerate outcomes and unlock new levels of engineering productivity.

You will collaborate with some of the world's largest and most innovative enterprises—including Fortune 100 companies and government organizations across industries such as financial services, healthcare, and technology. Together, you'll tackle complex challenges and shape the future of software delivery in increasingly AI-driven environments.

This role combines strategic advisory, technical leadership, and hands-on innovation. One day, you may be leading executive discussions on platform strategy, AI adoption, or engineering transformation. Next, you may be working directly with engineering teams to design intelligent delivery platforms, automate workflows, and implement scalable DevSecOps solutions. While the role is primarily focused on strategy, architecture, and transformation, there will also be opportunities to work hands-on alongside customers—troubleshooting complex technical challenges, accelerating issue resolution, and building practical solutions that deliver immediate value. Whether remote or onsite, you will serve as a trusted advisor who helps customers navigate both technology and organizational change.

As software delivery evolves beyond traditional automation, you will help customers embrace emerging paradigms including AI-assisted development, agentic workflows, platform engineering, and intelligent automation. You will guide organizations in building modern software factories that combine human expertise with AI-powered capabilities, enabling faster innovation, stronger security, and greater operational efficiency.

Success in this role requires curiosity, adaptability, and a passion for continuous learning. You stay ahead of industry trends, experiment with new technologies, and bring a forward-looking perspective to every engagement. Most importantly, you are energized by helping customers define and execute a vision for the future of software delivery—turning emerging technologies and modern engineering practices into measurable business outcomes.
