Forward Deployed Engineer

About Virtru:

While the rest of the security industry obsesses over locking data down to prevent it from being lost or stolen, we're doing something fundamentally different at Virtru. We're setting data free so that you can intentionally share it with others, but without sacrificing security, privacy, or control.

We've created both a suite of powerful data protection applications and an open platform that's sparking an ecosystem of innovation. Through the Trusted Data Format (TDF) open standard, we're not just protecting data; we're creating a new paradigm where security enables sharing rather than preventing it.

Think of us as the Android of data protection: a robust platform with an open core that developers and partners can build upon, coupled with our own best-in-class applications that showcase what's possible when you reimagine security from the ground up.

Backed by Iconiq Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Foundry Capital, and Tiger Global, we're helping Fortune 500 companies and government agencies discover that true data security means having the freedom to share, collaborate, and innovate — without compromise.

Compensation: £125,000 - £160,000 base salary 

Team & Position Details: 

As a Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) at Virtru, you will be a solid, independent contributor on Virtru's Forward Deployed Engineering team. You will own the technical execution of customer deployments end-to-end — installing, configuring, and integrating the Virtru Data Security Platform in customer and partner environments — and serve as the on-the-ground engineering presence that turns a signed deal into a working production system.

The Forward Deployed Engineering team enables customers to realize the full value of Virtru by meeting them in their environment, deploying and integrating the Data Security Platform into their existing infrastructure, and delivering configurations that perform reliably at scale. FDEs work shoulder-to-shoulder with customer technical teams, partner with Solutions Architecture, and Customer Success counterparts, and bring back the field intelligence that makes Virtru's product better.

At the Mastery level, you will be expected to execute the majority of deployment scenarios encountered in the role and to begin contributing to the team's collective capability through documentation, peer support, and field-informed product feedback.

Key Responsibilities:

• Deploying, configuring, and integrating the Virtru Data Security Platform in customer and partner environments across the full range of standard deployment scenarios
