Job description

**We Are** 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. Whether we’re defending against known cyberattacks, detecting and responding to the unknown, or running an entire security operations center, we will help companies build cyber resilience to grow with confidence. Our team of the security sector’s brightest people uses the coolest tech to out\-hack the hackers and help clients build resilience from within. We blend risk strategy, digital identity, cyber defense, application security, and managed service solutions to rethink the entire security lifecycle. Do you have the deep functional and technical experience to help implement security solutions that align with our clients’ business objectives? Do you have the expertise to design and deliver solutions for establishing system user's credentials, and processes for applying those credentials to access enterprise systems and applications? **You Are** 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. 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
