Cybersecurity AI Forward Deployed Engineer - FDE - Consultant

Agentic coding is not a supporting skill for this role—it is the primary method of delivery. You use Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot as your standard operating environment. You build security tooling, detection systems, threat models, and governance frameworks with AI co-authoring the code alongside you. Engineers who treat AI tools as optional accelerators are not the profile. Engineers who cannot deliver without them are.

What you'll do:

• Support AI security architecture and threat modeling for production agentic deployments across complex multi-stakeholder client environments—LLM systems, multi-agent pipelines, RAG architectures, and MLOps infrastructure—owning the full security design from assessment through hardened deployment
• Deliver hands-on security engineering using agentic coding tools as the primary build environment: build AI-powered detection systems, automated threat response tooling, security assessment frameworks, and governance automation using Claude Code, Cursor, or GitHub Copilot in daily delivery practice
• Support AI-specific threat surface management at programme scale: OWASP LLM Top 10 controls, prompt injection hardening, model extraction prevention, adversarial input defences, and AI supply chain security across concurrent client workstreams
• Architect and govern AI security controls across the enterprise stack: identity and access for AI systems, data pipeline security, model serving security, and multi-system integration risk across cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP)
• Assist with AI governance framework implementation: EU AI Act, NIST AI RMF, and model risk management applied to live production systems, not theoretical compliance exercises
• Shape AI reinvention security strategy for client CISO and CTO: build risk-adjusted investment cases, security architecture roadmaps, and AI governance operating models aligned to commercial outcomes
