The Forward Deployed AI Security Engineer is a customer-facing technical operator who lives inside client environments, not behind a ticket queue. You will sit with security, platform, and AI engineering teams to assess how generative and agentic systems actually behave at runtime, then design, deploy, tune, and operationalize AI security controls that hold up under production load.

You will install, configure, integrate, and defend tools in live estates: Palo Alto Prisma AIRS, Koi Agentic Endpoint Security, Onyx, Zenity, Zscaler AI Security, and CrowdStrike Falcon AIDR. You will write the findings, brief executives, train operators, and stay until the control plane is working — not until the workshop ends.

Because you represent the company in high-stakes rooms, written and spoken English must be exceptional. You will produce assessment reports, architecture decisions, runbooks, and executive briefings that are precise, defensible, and free of ambiguity.
