Who you are

- Proven track record translating complex findings into technical and executive-level debriefs. Excellent written and verbal communication is essential
- Deep AWS expertise; IAM, STS, Organizations, SCP, GuardDuty, CloudTrail, EKS, IRSA, and demonstrated ability to map cross-account attack paths
- Azure expertise; Entra ID, Conditional Access, RBAC, Activity Logs, Defender for Cloud, AKS, Workload Identity, including cross-tenant and hybrid-identity attack patterns
- Working knowledge in GCP, IAM, Org Policy, Audit Logs, GKE Workload Identity
- Working knowledge of cloud-native runtime security, eBPF telemetry, container runtime behavior, and how to spot a workload doing something it shouldn't

- Comfortable triaging output from AI-assisted cloud-posture and attack-path tools, able to separate risk from noise
- Cloud incident response and log forensics experience across at least two major cloud providers
What the job involves
- As a Staff Cloud Security Engineer, you will be tasked with becoming the trusted advisor customers turn to when mass-deletion, ransom, or full-tenant takeover scenarios are on the table
- You'll work directly on top of the output of our agentic code scanning pipeline, validate cloud exposures with human judgment, reconstruct cloud-native attack paths from logs / deployment methodologies, and present collateral to customers
- Lead Wayfinder Frontier AI Services cloud-domain workstreams end-to-end across customer engagements, proactive reviews, compromise assessments, and post-incident hardening
- Review and triage cloud security findings from our agentic scanning pipeline, validate true positives, eliminate noise, ground exploitability in the customer's actual cloud environment, and ensure every finding that reaches the customer is a decision they can act on
- Conduct deep IAM, network, and identity reviews across AWS, Azure, and GCP
- Lead cloud-native attack path discovery and document exposures and remediation
- Demonstrated ability to defend findings under pressure with senior customer stakeholders, excellent written and verbal communication is non-negotiable for this role
- Maintain continuous awareness of cloud-native attack techniques, pure-cloud ransomware, Entra, K8s attacks, OAuth-app abuse, etc
Our take
Cybercriminals are now leveraging the power of automation to make the current threat landscape too advanced for a lot of traditional antivirus software. SentinelOne is a cybersecurity company that matches this automation with machine learning-focused software designed to help businesses defend against online attacks.
The company has expanded beyond endpoint security into a broader AI-powered cybersecurity platform spanning endpoint, cloud, identity, and IT operations. This gives SentinelOne access to a larger enterprise market, although it also it also places the company in direct competitions with established cybersecurity leaders, including its biggest rival, CrowdStrike.
As cyberattacks become increasingly automated, the company is expanding its capabilities beyond detection to include AI-driven threat response, helping security teams contain attacks more quickly. While it still trails larger rival CrowdStrike in scale, SentinelOne is investing in platform expansion and automation to compete for enterprises looking to consolidate their cybersecurity into a single solution.
