Cybersecurity FDE Senior Manager
Accenture Security helps organizations prepare, protect, detect, respond, and recover along with all points of the security lifecycle. Cybersecurity challenges are different for every business in every industry. Leveraging our global resources and advanced technologies, we create integrated, turnkey solutions tailored to our client's needs across their entire value chain.
This is not a security consulting role. It is not a compliance advisory position. It is not a pen test engagement. A Cybersecurity Forward Deployed Engineer is a production engineer who works embedded inside a client’s enterprise—shoulder to shoulder with their security and engineering teams—to make AI systems secure, governed, and resilient in real, complex organizational environments. You own outcomes: reduced attack surface, production-safe AI deployments, measurable security posture improvement.
What you'll do:
- Lead 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
- Own 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)
- Lead 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
