What Are We Looking For?

We’re looking for people who are relentlessly curious and committed to continuous learning. AI is reshaping every function across our business, and we enable every team member, regardless of role or level, to build fluency in AI tools and concepts. Those who thrive here actively seek out new solutions, experiment thoughtfully, and apply what they learn to drive better, faster, smarter outcomes.

As a Staff Software Engineer on the Agent Platform team, you will help secure tens of millions of devices across Windows, Linux, and macOS while processing billions of security events every day as part of SentinelOne’s Endpoint Protection product line.

We are looking for an excellent software engineer with a reliability-first mindset who thrives on solving complex distributed systems challenges in production and turning those learnings into durable platform improvements and long-term engineering ownership.

You’ll help drive customer-critical incident response across the Agent Platform, rapidly build context across multiple platform services, and partner with engineering teams to continuously improve the platform’s reliability, operability, and scalability as a whole.

You will build and evolve the high-throughput, highly available services responsible for policy, configuration, and command distribution to millions of agents worldwide, while contributing to the agent platform protocols that enable other SentinelOne teams to deliver new security capabilities safely and at scale.

This role offers broad technical ownership, the opportunity to work across service boundaries, and the ability to influence the design and reliability of critical platform capabilities used throughout the Agent Platform at SentinelOne.
