Senior Forward Deployed Engineer, Cyber
Eliza, United States
The role
The Senior Forward Deployed Engineer, Cyber builds and deploys AI-enabled security solutions with customers. You will bring deep cybersecurity expertise and strong software engineering skills to work that spans discovery, architecture, integration, deployment, evaluation, and handover. You will own the engineering decisions that turn an ambiguous security problem into a useful, maintainable capability in the customer's environment.
This is a remote role with substantial autonomy and direct client contact. You will work closely with security practitioners, engineering teams, and delivery and commercial partners, making tradeoffs clear and keeping technical commitments credible. Experienced cyber engineers and senior technical leaders who want to remain hands-on are welcome.
Eliza is AI-native. You will use agentic coding tools in your engineering workflow (including OpenAI Daybreak), inspect and verify their output, and make practical decisions about where models help, where they fail, and where human judgment belongs. Client needs and technology change quickly; we value clear thinking, adaptability, and ownership through a validated outcome.
