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 at Agent Platform unit, you will be tasked with designing, developing, and operating large-scale, low-latency applications for our Endpoint Protection Platform. You will own the end-to-end lifecycle of high-volume data pipelines handling millions of events per second while ensuring mission-critical stability and data integrity. In this role, you will participate in architecting new features and building a resilient backbone against global cyber threats.

What Will You Do?

Primary responsibilities include:

• Design, develop, implement, test, document, and operate large-scale, high-volume, and low-latency applications built to handle several millions of events per second.
• Translate business and functional requirements into robust, scalable, and operable solutions that work well within the overall data architecture.
• Participate and collaborate with cross-functional teams across SentinelOne to understand business requirements and deliver scalable solutions.
• Maintain application stability and data integrity by monitoring key metrics and improving the codebase accordingly.
• Understand and maintain the existing codebase through regular refactoring, bug fixes, and feature implementations.
• Continuously learn and adopt new technologies to solve high-volume data challenges.

What Skills and Knowledge Will You Bring?

Ideal candidates will have:

• Multiple years of professional backend development experience in Java (preferred) and/or Golang, with an understanding of Python as a plus.
• Proven experience designing and optimizing the performance of large-scale, high-load distributed systems.
• Solid experience with cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, etc.) and container technologies including Docker, Helm, and Kubernetes.
• Technical proficiency with data and messaging systems such as Kafka, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, and Redis.
• Excellent communication and leadership skills to mentor others, influence technical direction, and collaborate with cross-functional teams.
• Prior experience in an enterprise SaaS company or cybersecurity software company (highly preferred).
