Role Overview
High-impact engineering position partnering directly with executive leadership to architect, deploy, and manage secure network infrastructures for internal operations and enterprise clients.
Fortinet Network Security Engineer
Tired of being just a ticket number in a massive, faceless corporate machine?
We are partnering with a rapidly scaling cybersecurity consultancy experiencing massive growth and a booming order book. They need a sharp, hands-on Fortinet Network Security Engineer to step in, take ownership of complex network defences, and work directly alongside the CEO.
This isn't about maintaining static rules, it's a high-impact, project-driven role where your work dictates the security posture of enterprise client environments.
What You'll Be Doing
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
- Architect & Deploy: Configure and manage FortiGate firewalls, HA clusters, and site-to-site/remote-access VPNs across complex, multi-tenant environments.
- Ecosystem Control: Own the broader security fabric, utilizing FortiAnalyzer, FortiManager, and FortiClient EMS to drive proactive visibility and threat mitigation.
- Incident & Defense: Lead technical investigations, handle security events, and collaborate closely with engineering squads on robust vulnerability remediation.
- Direct Leadership: Sit shoulder-to-shoulder with the executive leadership team, shaping security strategy without corporate red tape.
What We Are Looking For
- Core Technical Roots: Strong, hands-on deployment and configuration background with FortiGate firewalls and core networking principles (TCP/IP, routing, switching, NAT).
- Fabric Familiarity: Experience administering FortiManager, FortiAnalyzer, or associated endpoint management tools.
- The Right Mindset: Detail-oriented, analytical, and genuinely passionate about solving complex security puzzles rather than running automated scripts.
- Certifications: Fortinet NSE credentials (NSE 4 to 7) or Cisco equivalents are a massive plus, but your practical deployment capability matters most.
