Competitive Salary + Equity + Outstanding Benefits
Some graduate roles have you fixing bugs.
This one has you solving problems that really matter.
We're partnering with a well-funded security technology company building software that helps organisations make better decisions in complex, fast-moving environments.

They're looking for exceptional graduates who enjoy solving difficult technical problems and want to work directly with customers to deliver software with real-world impact.
As a Forward Deployed Software Engineer, you'll bridge the gap between engineering and deployment. You'll work closely with customers to understand their challenges, build software solutions and see your work being used in the field.
What you'll be doing
- Working directly with customers to understand technical challenges and requirements
- Building and deploying software solutions using modern engineering practices
- Collaborating with product and engineering teams to turn customer feedback into new platform capabilities
- Writing clean, maintainable code across a range of projects
- Helping integrate AI, data and software into operational systems
- Travelling to customer sites across the UK and occasionally overseas to support deployments
We're looking for graduates who have
- A First or 2:1 in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Physics, Engineering or a related STEM discipline
- Strong programming skills in Python, C++, Java, Rust or similar
- A genuine passion for solving complex technical problems
- Excellent communication skills and the confidence to work closely with customers
- Curiosity, adaptability and a desire to learn quickly
Internships, personal projects or open-source contributions are all highly valued.
Why join?
- Work on technically challenging software from day one
- Learn from an exceptional team of engineers
- Gain exposure to AI, distributed systems and modern software development
- Take ownership of meaningful projects early in your career
- Competitive salary, generous equity and excellent benefits
- Work alongside customers to see the real-world impact of your software
Due to the nature of the work, applicants must have the right to work in the UK and be eligible to obtain UK Security Clearance.
If you're a graduate who wants more than a typical software engineering role and enjoys tackling difficult technical challenges, I'd be happy to tell you more.
