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 Distinguished Architect, you will be tasked with anchoring our federated enterprise architecture function and serving as a horizontal connector across IT, enterprise applications, enterprise AI, and Security, and all related delivery functions. You will set the standards, forums, and tools that enable embedded delivery teams to design consistent, high-quality solutions without centralizing design authority. Your goal is to create the conditions for consistent architecture, acting as a standard-setter and facilitator rather than a bottleneck.
What Will You Do?
- Own and publish the quarterly organization-wide technology radar detailing approved, trial, and retiring technologies.
- Chair the monthly Architecture Review Board (ARB) to provide a feedback forum for cross-cutting decisions.
- Run the Architecture Community of Practice across all embedded architects across the four delivery functions.
- Own the Architecture Decision Record (ADR) process, define review thresholds, and maintain the shared repository.
- Develop and publish AI architecture blueprints—pre-approved patterns teams can adopt—in partnership with Enterprise Data & AI.
- Define organization-wide architecture standards including API design, data classification handling, identity integration, and security-by-design.
What Skills and Knowledge Will You Bring?
- Extensive experience in enterprise architecture, specifically operating in a federated or embedded architectural model.
- Proven ability to lead Architecture Review Boards (ARB) and foster a Community of Practice.
- Deep understanding of architecture standards spanning API design, identity integration, and security-by-design.
- Technical experience developing AI architecture blueprints and managing technology radars.
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.

- Medical, Vision, Dental, 401(k), Commuter, Health and Dependent FSA.
