Security Engineer, Forward Deployed Engineering, AWS Forward Deployed Engineering
We are seeking a Security Engineer to join a forward-deployed engineering team delivering secure, resilient solutions for complex customer environments. You will work closely with customers, software engineers, platform specialists and technical stakeholders to understand operational challenges, design effective security controls and implement solutions that work in real-world conditions. This role combines hands-on engineering, consultancy and problem-solving, with the opportunity to influence both technical direction and customer outcomes.
Your responsibilities will include assessing security requirements, identifying risks and recommending proportionate mitigations across infrastructure, applications, networks and data. You will design, build and maintain security tooling, automation and monitoring capabilities; support secure deployment and integration of services; investigate incidents and vulnerabilities; and contribute to threat modelling, security reviews and technical documentation. You will also help establish repeatable engineering practices, improve operational resilience and communicate complex security issues clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences. As a forward-deployed engineer, you should be comfortable working in changing environments, managing competing priorities and travelling or working directly at customer sites when required.
You will bring professional experience in security engineering, DevSecOps, cloud or infrastructure security, software development, or a related discipline. We are looking for practical knowledge of identity and access management, network security, encryption, vulnerability management, logging and incident response, together with experience using scripting or programming languages such as Python, Go or Bash. Familiarity with security standards, threat modelling methodologies, infrastructure as code, containers and automated testing would be advantageous. You should be able to work independently while contributing effectively to a collaborative team, demonstrate sound judgement when assessing risk and communicate confidently with customers and senior stakeholders. A strong commitment to continuous learning, secure-by-design principles and delivering high-quality engineering solutions is essential.
