As an Engagement Manager on the Compromise Assessments (CA) team, you'll be tasked with managing the delivery of consulting-style engagements to SentinelOne customers, serving as the critical link between our threat hunters, customers, and internal stakeholders. Engagements deliver telemetry-driven threat hunts (M&A, Post-Breach, Insider Threat, etc.). You'll own each assessment's full operational lifecycle, from intake and scoping through delivery, working alongside fellow Engagement Managers. You'll serve as the primary executive-facing point of contact, comfortably pivoting between our threat hunters and discussions with customer stakeholders. This is a technical-based role: practitioner-level technical knowledge is core to it, used to QC threat hunter analysis and reporting, serve as a knowledge resource for customers and internal teams, and provide surge capacity when needed. Over time, EMs on this team may also support engagements delivered through our AI-accelerated source code vulnerability assessment offering as capacity requires.

What Will You Do?

Primary responsibilities include:

• Oversee telemetry-based compromise assessment engagements from intake through delivery, ensuring quality, timely deliverables, and adherence to engagement minimums and scoping standards.

• Lead scoping and business development activities — requirements gathering and coordinating telemetry access — with clear communication to customers, account teams, and assigned threat hunters.

• Staff our threat hunters onto engagements based on scope and availability, and monitor team capacity to keep workload balanced.

• Oversee the customer communication cadence throughout each engagement — status updates and review calls — and own customer escalations end-to-end.

• Oversee evidence and data handling during the engagement, and manage retention and deletion timelines at closure, including any customer requests for early deletion.

• Serve as a knowledge resource — for customers and internally — on CA's services and capabilities, and drive process improvement by maintaining internal documentation and iterating on our delivery playbook as gaps surface.

• Manage each engagement's retainer hour budget, tracking usage against scope and requesting uplifts where needed.

• QC technical analysis and reports before delivery, and step in as hands-on surge support for telemetry analysis when team capacity requires it.

What Skills and Knowledge Will You Bring?

Ideal candidates will have:

• 5+ years of hands-on practitioner experience in threat hunting, security analysis, or incident response, including some engagement or project management experience in a cybersecurity consulting, incident response, or related security services delivery role.

• Deep technical expertise in endpoint telemetry analysis and threat hunting. This depth is core to the role — used to QC findings, answer customer technical questions, and provide surge capacity.

• Strong staffing and resource-coordination skills, excellent client communication, and comfort working with executive stakeholders, account teams, and, where applicable, legal counsel.

• Demonstrated experience owning customer escalations end-to-end and contributing to team documentation and process improvement.

• An evident self-starter, comfortable with collaborative working with fellow Engagement Managers.

• Ability to translate complex technical findings to business impact for non-technical stakeholders.
