About this role
SentinelOne is a company at the intersection of AI and security, pioneering a new operating model for cybersecurity. They are seeking a Senior Software Engineer who will design and build distributed backend services, tackle complex engineering problems, and contribute to collaborative design discussions.
Responsibilities:
- Designing and building distributed backend services that are reliable, performant, and secure — primarily in Java, with Python, Go and other technologies in the mix
- Going deep on hard engineering problems: understanding our data pipelines, troubleshooting distributed systems, latency optimization, improving failure modes
- Contributing meaningfully to design discussions — not just implementing what's handed to you but helping shape what we build and how
- Reviewing your teammates' code thoughtfully and having your own reviewed with the same rigor
- Participating in on-call rotations, investigating production issues methodically, writing RCAs and closing the loop with improvements that prevent recurrence
- Keeping your knowledge sharp and sharing what you learn — new technologies, better patterns and tools
Requirements:
- 5+ years of engineering experience with a solid computer science foundation
- Strong Java proficiency (3–5 years hands-on) and comfort reading and writing Python
- Real experience building and operating distributed systems in production
- Fluency with containerization and cloud infrastructure (Docker, Kubernetes, Helm, AWS or GCP)
- Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines (Jenkins or GitHub Actions) and cloud data stores (S3, DynamoDB, Redis, RDBMS)
- A polyglot mindset — you're not precious about languages or technology and you pick up new ones quickly
- The habit of writing code that's concise, readable, and easy for the next engineer to reason about
- Strong communication instincts — you ask good questions early, surface concerns before they become problems and give feedback that makes designs better
- A track record for being someone your teammates genuinely enjoy working with — collaborative, low-ego and generous with your time and knowledge
