Job Description

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. If you are motivated by meaningful challenges and want your impact to be real, measurable, and global, you will find purpose here.

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. By combining real-time analytics, intelligent automation, and a unified data foundation, we reduce noise, simplify complexity, and empower security teams to focus on what truly matters.

Our teams are builders, problem-solvers, and innovators committed to shaping the future of security. If you are excited to solve hard problems alongside talented, mission-driven people, we invite you to help us build a safer future for humanity.

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 Mid-Level MDR Analyst, you will be tasked with monitoring, investigating, and responding to security threats across SentinelOne's global client base. You'll join a supportive, globally distributed security team, working hands-on with the Singularity Platform and our bespoke DFIR tools to detect and defend against modern threats. This is a collaborative, non-hierarchical team where you'll bring your expertise, grow it further, and help your teammates do the same.

What Will You Do?

Primary responsibilities include:

  • Monitor and triage security threats, respond to incidents, and guide clients through remediation and mitigation efforts.
  • Collaborate with internal MDR and MDR-adjacent teams on projects, tasks, and initiatives to improve our ability to detect and respond to threat actors.
  • Query and analyze log data using the SentinelOne Singularity Platform, and become an expert in our bespoke DFIR tools to identify and contextualize threats across EDR, cloud, and network sources.
  • Tune and provide feedback on detection rules to reduce noise and improve signal quality.
  • Write clear, detailed incident reports that communicate findings to both technical and non-technical audiences.
  • Collaborate with detection engineers, threat intel, and client teams to improve the overall quality of the MDR service.
  • Function as a force multiplier by training and mentoring fellow analysts, both one-on-one and in group settings.
  • Contribute to process improvements and knowledge sharing to make the SOC better every day.

What Skills and Knowledge Will You Bring?

Ideal candidates will have:

  • 2–4 years of experience in a SOC, IR, MDR, or similar environment.
  • A mindset that values learning, collaboration, and making things better.
  • Experience with SIEM and EDR platforms.
  • Comfort investigating alerts from tools like CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Splunk, Rapid7, or Microsoft 365 Defender.
  • Understanding of attacker tactics (MITRE ATT&CK, phishing, lateral movement, etc.) and how to spot them.
  • Clear written and verbal communication — you can explain your thought process and back it up.

Why SentinelOne?

AI is redefining how the world operates and rewriting the rules of security in real time, and SentinelOne was built for this moment. From day one, we architected an AI-native platform designed to operate at machine speed, not as an add-on to legacy systems but as the foundation itself. If you want to build where innovation and impact move together, this is that place.
