Our Purpose
At SentinelOne, we are driven by a clear purpose: to give the advantage to those who secure our future. As AI reshapes how organizations build, operate, and innovate, the responsibility to protect them becomes more critical than ever. When you join SentinelOne, your work helps protect global enterprises, critical infrastructure, and the technologies shaping tomorrow.
About Us
SentinelOne is a company at the intersection of AI and security, pioneering a new operating model for cybersecurity. Our AI-native platform unifies protection across endpoint, cloud, identity, data, and AI systems to deliver autonomous detection and response with clarity and speed.
Role Overview
As a Senior Software Architect, you will be tasked with driving the transformation of one of our core systems into a scalable modern microservices architecture and defining the next generation of our platform. In this high-visibility, high-impact role, you will lead an ambitious initiative to break down a complex cloudbased monolithic system, written primarily in Python, into a scalable, multi-tenant, cloud-native set of services (primarily in modern Java for new development; you may also meet Go as a secondary language in newer parts of the codebase). You will collaborate across the SentinelOne engineering organization with multiple engineering and product management leaders to design solutions capable of handling global SaaS scale processing petabytes of data and hundreds of billions of events.
