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.

We are seeking a Senior Director of Business Operations to serve as a trusted strategic advisor to executive leaders across SentinelOne’s Product and Technology organization. This role operates at the intersection of strategy, execution, and senior leadership decision-making. You will own the operating cadence, lead strategic planning and investment decisions, and deliver authoritative, data-driven insights that give leaders the clarity and confidence to run a complex, high-growth business. The ideal candidate brings deep consulting experience, exceptional analytical rigor, and the executive presence to communicate nuanced business and technical topics with precision and impact.

What Will You Do?

Primary responsibilities include

• Serve as a trusted strategic partner to C-suite and VP-level product and technology leaders, shaping priorities and driving organizational alignment.
• Architect and lead the operating rhythm across the organization—Board presentations, OKRs, QBRs, MBRs, operational reviews, All Hands, and more.
• Guide leaders in establishing impactful, measurable OKRs and goals that cascade coherently across teams and connect to company-wide objectives.
• Lead data-driven analysis through organizational dashboards and reporting frameworks that inform executive decisions on growth, investment allocation, resourcing, and strategic priorities.
• Translate complex business and technical subject matter into crisp, executive-ready narratives and board-level presentations.
• Lead quarterly and annual planning processes in support of roadmap development and AOP planning, ensuring rigor and cross-functional alignment.
• Develop and deliver high-impact materials for executive and board-level forums, including investment cases, strategic reviews, and performance summaries.
• Define, own, and evolve the key metrics framework spanning revenue growth, cost management, operational efficiency, and product adoption; distill actionable insights for C-suite audiences.
• Drive alignment across Product, Technology, and key cross-functional partners—including Sales, Marketing, Finance, Human Resources, Customer Success, and Legal—to accelerate execution and remove barriers.
• Proactively identify risks, surface critical trade-offs, and equip leaders with the analysis needed to make well-informed, timely decisions.
• Build, scale, and continuously strengthen a high-performing business operations capability.

What Skills and Knowledge Will You Bring?

Ideal candidates will have:

• 15+ years of progressive experience combining management consulting and industry roles in business operations, strategy, or Chief of Staff functions—ideally within high-growth SaaS organizations.
• Demonstrated success partnering directly with C-suite and VP-level executives to influence strategy and drive measurable business outcomes.
• Track record of leading business transformation and large-scale programs with tangible, lasting impact on organizational performance.
• Ability to operate effectively across altitudes—moving fluidly between long-horizon strategy and hands-on execution as the situation demands.
• Proven ability to design and manage operating cadences for large, complex organizations (1,000+ employees) across geographies and functions.
• Exceptional executive communication and storytelling skills, including the ability to produce polished, persuasive deliverables under tight timelines.
• Sophisticated analytical capabilities with a demonstrated ability to synthesize complex, disparate data into clear, actionable executive insights.
• Strong executive presence and the ability to influence senior stakeholders, build consensus, and drive outcomes in ambiguous, fast-moving environments.
• Resilient and adaptable, with strong change management skills and a track record of leading through organizational complexity.
• Experience in the cybersecurity industry is preferred; familiarity with concepts such as secure SDLC, vulnerability management, threat modeling, or security research is a plus.
• MBA or equivalent advanced degree strongly preferred.
