Forward deployed engineer

Eden Prescott is a high-velocity Series A AI security company backed by Andreessen Horowitz, focused on building the security backbone for AI-native enterprises. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will work directly with security teams and ML engineers to ensure secure AI deployments across complex enterprise environments.

Responsibilities:

• Lead technical engagements from first architecture conversation through secure production deployment
• Partner with security, ML, and platform teams to integrate AI systems into complex enterprise environments
• Design and implement secure reference architectures across cloud, on-prem, and hybrid infrastructure
• Build high-impact POCs that demonstrate secure model deployment, evaluation, and observability
• Diagnose integration blockers across APIs, identity systems, CI/CD pipelines, and data infrastructure
• Translate real-world security concerns (compliance, data privacy, governance, model risk) into product feedback
• Own and resolve technical escalations with urgency and precision
• Create reusable tooling, deployment frameworks, and documentation that scales beyond a single customer
• Act as the connective tissue between Sales, Product, and Engineering — influencing roadmap based on real-world deployment friction

Requirements:

• Deep Technical Fluency - You write clean production code (Typescript, React and Node.js.) and understand cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, Azure), containerization, and enterprise architectures
• Security Instincts- You understand security - Ideally Appsec or OffSec
• AI-Native Curiosity - You've worked with LLMs, evaluation frameworks, or AI pipelines and understand the unique risks that come with deploying AI in production
• Customer-Facing Confidence - You can whiteboard with a CISO, debug with an engineer, and influence a VP of Engineering — all in the same afternoon
• Operator Mentality - You move fast, prioritize well, and don't wait for perfect clarity. You ship. You iterate. You own outcomes
