As a Software Engineer you will be tasked to join our on Prem Team. We are building and scaling SentinelOne's self-hosted (On-Prem) console, and we're looking for a strong backend software engineer to join the On-Prem team. As our new colleague, you should be excited about building and hardening systems that customers run in their own environments — from air-gapped data centers to private clouds. You should love taking an active role, be comfortable diving into complex, large-scale distributed systems, and enjoy owning the reliability, upgradeability, and operability of software that ships outside of SentinelOne's own infrastructure. What will you do? You'll help build and scale the core services that power SentinelOne's CNAPP — the engines that continuously evaluate customers' cloud and Kubernetes environments to surface misconfigurations, risks, and threats. As part of the team you will: Build and operate high-throughput, resilient backend services that analyze cloud infrastructure, Kubernetes workloads, and container images at scale across multiple regions. Work on policy and detection engines — including policy-as-code and graph-based approaches — that turn cloud configuration and relationships into actionable security findings. Help enforce security earlier in the lifecycle, from infrastructure-as-code through to runtime in Kubernetes. Contribute to Cloud AI Security: as customers adopt AI across their environments, our CNAPP capabilities are being extended to detect misconfigurations and risks in their AI workloads and infrastructure — helping them build with AI safely. misconfigurations and risks in their AI infrastructure — helping them build with AI safely. Improve the accuracy, coverage, and performance of our services as both customer scale and detection capabilities grow. Own the reliability and operability of what you build: monitoring, debugging production issues, and writing tests and code you can be proud of. You'll do this with plenty of support — this is a great role to deepen your skills in distributed systems, cloud, and security alongside experienced engineers.
