Job Description
Forward Deployed Engineer
SenseOn
• SenseOn is looking for a Forward Deployed Engineer to sit at the intersection of security engineering, software development, and customer success. • You will be the person who makes SenseOn work, in the real world, for real customers. • Embed directly with customers to deploy and configure the SenseOn platform, develop custom integrations, and ensure that every customer derives measurable security value as quickly as possible. • Own the full technical lifecycle of a customer deployment, from initial architecture review through to live production, ongoing integration development, and long-term platform health. • Write production-quality software to build and maintain integrations across third-party security tools, SIEMs, identity platforms, and AWS, Azure, and GCP environments. • Lead end-to-end SenseOn platform deployments and complex log ingestion rollouts without customer disruption. • Provide the technical evidence base and build business cases for renewals and expansions. • Develop deep relationships with customer security leadership, acting as a trusted adviser across their security architecture. • Collaborate with Sales Engineering to ensure continuity from pre-sale technical validation through to post-sale deployment.
Job Requirements
- 3–6 years of experience in a technical cybersecurity role, ideally spanning Security Operations and an engineering or customer facing function.
- Demonstrable software development capability, you must be able to write, review, and deploy code in a production context. Python is strongly preferred.
- Proven ability to write and tune detection rules in one or more SIEM platforms (e.g. Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, Elastic, QRadar). You are comfortable translating threat scenarios into detection logic and iterating on rule quality based on operational feedback.
- Hands-on experience building and troubleshooting integrations with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP), REST APIs, and common security tooling including SIEMs, EDRs, XDRs, and NDRs.
- Strong understanding of networking fundamentals, operating systems (Windows and Linux), and identity and access management concepts.
- Experience deploying or operating software in containerised environments (Docker, Kubernetes).
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage credibly with both technical engineers and non-technical stakeholders up to C-level.
- Based in the United Kingdom with the right to work in the UK.
- Highly Desirable
- Prior experience in a Forward Deployed Engineer, Customer Success Engineer, or Technical Account Manager role at a security or SaaS company.
- Experience supporting customer renewal engagements from a technical perspective — building business cases, evidencing value, and closing coverage gaps ahead of renewal conversations.
- Familiarity with log ingestion at scale, including the operational and architectural challenges of onboarding diverse log sources across complex enterprise environments.
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines, Infrastructure-as-Code (Terraform, Ansible), and modern DevSecOps practices.
- Exposure to machine learning or AI-driven security analytics platforms.
- Relevant industry certifications such as CISSP, AWS Solutions Architect, GCIH, or equivalent.
- Experience supporting or replacing incumbent security platforms (e.g. Darktrace, CrowdStrike, Splunk) within enterprise customer transitions.
Benefits
- Competitive salary commensurate with experience
- Unlimited holiday allowance
- Hybrid working model with flexibility around customer commitments
- Bi-annual career progression review
- Personal learning and development budget
- MacBook and all necessary tooling provided
- Enhanced pension scheme
- Private healthcare through Vitality, with rewards and discounts
