About Us:

SentinelOne is defining the future of cybersecurity through our XDR platform that automatically prevents, detects, and responds to threats in real-time. Singularity XDR ingests data and leverages our patented AI models to deliver autonomous protection. With SentinelOne, organizations gain full transparency into everything happening across the network at machine speed – to defeat every attack, at every stage of the threat lifecycle.

Trust, accountability, relentlessness, ingenuity, and OneSentinel define the pillars of our collaborative and unified global culture. We're looking for people that will drive team success and collaboration across SentinelOne. If you’re enthusiastic about innovative approaches to problem-solving, we would love to speak with you about joining our team!

What are we looking for?

We are looking for talented security researchers, people who look at the world differently, who explore, "hunt" and live to beat the system and challenge it. People who are in pursuit of outsmarting the malware and overcoming it.

What will you do?

  • You’ll research and find new and innovative ways to detect, prevent and protect against the biggest and most prioritized threats we deal with.
  • You will be part of strategic and long-term research projects that would involve deep research of OS internals, research for new detection techniques, and novel threats.
  • Continually learning about emerging threats, techniques, and new technologies on a regular basis.
  • Besides new methods and technologies, you’ll also suggest how existing techniques and technologies can be improved for better coverage or accuracy.
  • Initiate and propose new features and capabilities, leveraging personal experience and expertise in security research.
  • You will also be encouraged to write white papers, blogs, and articles.

  • Ability to perform both offensive and defensive security research
  • Proven experience (at least 3 years) with malware analysis (statically and dynamically) and reverse engineering (x86/x64).
