Who We Are Looking For

As a UX Researcher Intern at SentinelOne, you will assist the UX research team in a number of research activities including recruitment related activities, data entry, note-taking, technical setup of research studies, product analytics, etc. to ensure that project work is delivered on time and meets our demands for high quality.

The UX Research team collaborates with cross-functional teams, including product managers, product designers, and engineers, to conduct user research and provide actionable insights that drive the development of intuitive, user-centric solutions. Your work with the UXR team will have a direct impact on our main products, enabling SentinelOne to develop innovative concepts and ideas based on data and research, rather than subjective opinions.

SentinelOne’s design team (over 30 designers across the US, Israel, Czechia and India) is growing quickly and transforming its role in the organization. We are leading the way with ideas and execution to make our product more lovable, usable, and flexible.

As part of your UXR internship you will impact products that serve thousands of users from security teams at enterprise and government customers across the globe (incl. 5 of Fortune 10 and hundreds of Global 2000) and protect tens of millions of endpoints every day.
