As a Senior Manager of Detection Ops & Threat Research Infrastructure, you will be tasked with leading the engineering organization that designs, builds, and operates the infrastructure powering SentinelOne's malware detection research, threat intelligence, and internal security tooling ecosystem. Your teams provide the high-scale sandboxing, live detection delivery, fleet management, researcher-facing tooling, and threat intelligence infrastructure that security researchers rely on to solve problems no one else has solved before. You will partner closely with detection engineering, threat research, AI/ML, and product teams to ensure researchers and engineers have reliable, secure, and scalable systems to research malware, validate detections, and ship protection to customers at scale.
What Will You Do?
Primary responsibilities include:
- Lead and grow multiple engineering teams each responsible for a critical piece from SentinelOne's detection & threat research to the delivery pipeline.
- Own the architecture, scalability, and reliability of a diverse set of high-scale systems, including cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Linux) sandboxing and malware execution environments, live security content delivery and fleet management pipelines, internal research tooling platforms, and threat intelligence infrastructure.
