Job description

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.

We invest in our Sentinels with comprehensive, competitive benefits designed to support you and your family:

  • Medical, Vision, Dental, 401(k), Commuter, Health and Dependent FSA.
  • Unlimited PTO.
  • Industry-leading gender-neutral parental leave.
  • Paid company holidays.
  • Paid sick time.
  • Employee stock purchase program.
  • Disability and life insurance.
  • Employee assistance program.
  • Gym membership reimbursement.
  • Cell phone reimbursement.
