Our client is a DeepTech organisation building advanced security technology for the rapidly evolving Agentic AI ecosystem.

The company focuses on securing AI agents that enterprises build, procure and deploy across internal applications, customer-facing systems and third-party environments.

About the Role

We are looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer who can operate at the intersection of software engineering, AI systems and enterprise technology deployments.

This is a highly hands-on engineering role where you will work directly within customer environments to translate business and technical requirements into production-ready integrations, verified security controls and operational workflows.

You will work closely with customer engineering and platform teams, building, debugging and validating integrations across AI applications, gateways, coding agents and enterprise agent platforms.

Beyond individual deployments, you will be responsible for converting repeated engineering challenges into reusable integrations, automation and validation frameworks that improve deployment efficiency across customers.

What You'll Do

1. Design & Deliver Integrations: Build and deploy integrations across customer AI applications, gateways, coding agents and enterprise agent platforms. Define dependencies, acceptance criteria, access requirements and production rollout plans.

2. Establish AI Security Coverage: Validate agent discovery and telemetry, configure security assessments and deploy runtime controls. Clearly establish what is monitored, what is enforced and what remains outside the coverage scope.

3. Validate System Behaviour: Test AI systems against representative adversarial attacks and legitimate workflows. Measure detection accuracy, enforcement effectiveness, false positives, reliability and latency against agreed acceptance criteria.

4. Debug Across the Technology Stack: Troubleshoot complex integration issues across APIs, Linux, containers, cloud infrastructure, identity,



networking and managed endpoints.

5. Collaborate With Engineering: Reproduce technical issues, investigate root causes and provide engineering teams with actionable diagnostics, test cases and regression scenarios.

6. Drive Customer Readiness: Train customer engineering and operations teams. Develop deployment checklists, troubleshooting documentation and operational runbooks to ensure customers can independently manage deployed systems.

7. Build Reusable Engineering Components: Convert recurring implementation challenges into maintained adapters, validation frameworks, integration components and automation that can be reused across deployments.

8. Ensure Production Reliability: Validate integrations under real enterprise workloads, identify deployment risks and ensure that implemented controls meet agreed production acceptance criteria.

What We're Looking For

- Ability to translate customer business and technical requirements into production-ready software and working integrations.
- Experience shipping and operating software or security systems in enterprise environments, working directly with customer engineering or platform teams.
- Solid hands-on proficiency in Python and Shell scripting.
- Practical experience with APIs, Linux, containers, source control and at least one major cloud platform such as AWS, Azure or GCP.
- Strong understanding of distributed systems and the ability to diagnose integration challenges involving authentication, networking, TLS, permissions and deployment configurations.
- Hands-on experience with LLM applications or AI agents, including tool calls and evaluation.
- Understanding of AI security risks such as prompt injection, data leakage, excessive permissions and unsafe agent actions.
- Ability to troubleshoot complex technical issues and validate fixes before considering them resolved.
- Strong communication skills, particularly when working directly with enterprise customers under delivery pressure.
- Willingness to travel for customer engagements.
