Your role in the team
- We’re not just a strategy consultancy: we take projects from strategy through to implementation, primarily for banks, insurance companies, and other highly regulated businesses. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you’re right at the heart of it:
- You work closely with our customers, often directly within their IT and security teams, and understand their processes, systems, and challenges.
- Additionally, at senior level: You are responsible for the technical approach and are the primary point of contact for the business team.
- You build prototypes and applications focused on cybersecurity and AI, from the first demo to production-ready solutions.
- Additionally at senior level: You design architectures and make fundamental technical decisions.
- You evaluate security products and startups and help customers make informed decisions. Where good solutions already exist, you integrate them instead of rebuilding them.
- You work with AI agents and coding tools, critically review their output, and understand what they build.
- You conduct workshops and training sessions, for example on the safe use of AI.
- You spot where the next problem lies for customers and build the demo that shows we can solve it.
- Additionally, at senior level: You turn these into proposals and follow-up projects and further develop our cybersecurity service portfolio.
- You contribute ideas to internal topics and make effective solutions reusable across the entire team.
- You’ll develop your security expertise with us through hands-on project work and guidance from our Cyber Team. You don’t need a background in penetration testing, SOC experience, or a degree in security.
Our expectations of you
Education
- You have a degree in computer science, engineering, a natural science, or another field that has given you a technical background, or equivalent practical experience.
- You can start directly after graduating. For the senior level, you have at least 2 years of professional experience.
Qualifications
- Our customers have security challenges that can’t be solved with slide decks. You go directly to them, understand the problem, and build a solution that works. We don’t replace security vendors. We assess what they can do and build what’s missing. AI helps you work faster. You decide whether the result is right. To do that, you bring:
- You’ve already built software that others use, even without AI: at work, as a working student, in your own projects, or at a startup.
- You quickly get to grips with complex topics, understand what an AI outputs, and speak up when a requirement or result is incorrect.
- You enjoy engaging with customers and explaining complex topics in simple terms.
- You have excellent German and English skills (at least C1 in both languages) and are willing to travel for client appointments.
- A plus, but not a must-have:
- Exposure to security topics, such as Security Operations, IAM, or Zero Trust
- You don’t meet every requirement? Feel free to apply anyway.
Experience
- Experience with cloud, containers, or identity systems such as Entra ID
- Experience with AI agents, MCP, or other LLM applications
- Experience in consulting or in a regulated industry
What we offer
- Supportive team culture: Team cohesion is important to us—we support one another and foster a healthy office culture. Our events team organizes regular after-work events and creates opportunities to connect outside the workplace.
- Taking on responsibility from day one: You’ll take on exciting tasks and have ownership from day one—whether on your project or by contributing to internal initiatives. You’ll help shape things!
- Clear career opportunities: With us, you’ll find an environment that supports, challenges, and helps you grow. We offer clearly defined career paths and transparent requirements management at every level.
- Creative workplace: We give you the freedom and time to develop creative solutions, and provide you with the best and most up-to-date hardware (Apple or Windows).
- Employee benefits: Flexible working arrangements, a BahnCard, JobRad, a Spendit Card, Wellpass, and a company pension scheme support your well-being. We also have the best coffee in the office, made with our new espresso machine, and a soft drink fridge that’s always stocked.
- Attractive vacation policy: You enjoy 30 days of vacation per year and can work flexibly from home.
- AI tools: You have access to the latest AI tools for your work at TRUSTEQ.
