About the team & role

Our team is responsible for Endpoint Protection services, and covers end-to-end from agent to backend to frontend the following areas:

  • Building services that process traffic between SentinelOne's Agent (which is responsible for protection across all kinds of OS - Windows, Linux, macOS) and our cloud-based Management console
  • Developing a big part of backend of this Management console itself (which is in short a large-scale distributed system, a complex "control application" used by IT security teams of S1 clients - that can be seen in many S1 vs. Ransomware demos) and the management of the "fleet" of agents deployed on endpoints in client's environments (backends written in Go and Python and deployed in Kubernetes)

We’re a team with a significant impact on how our customers environments are protected, and how they interact with agents. As core team at S1, we're heavily involved in every end-to-end effort, features development and are key contributors to the design and build of the right architecture of S1's cybersecurity solution to match the scale & triple-digit-growth of our business.
