As a Risk Analyst, Vendor Risk Assessment (VRA), you will be tasked with bringing technically grounded expertise to SentinelOne's Information Security GRC team. You will go beyond compliance knowledge to understand how systems work, how threats materialize, and how to evaluate vendor security controls with a critical technical eye. You will operate with moderate guidance on assigned workstreams and apply hands-on IT and cybersecurity knowledge to assess risk accurately and credibly across a diverse vendor portfolio.

What Will You Do?

• Conduct vendor assessments by reviewing questionnaire responses, evaluating SOC 2 reports, and examining supporting technical documentation including penetration test findings, vulnerability disclosures, encryption practices, and access control configurations; identify technical control gaps and contribute to risk-prioritized remediation plans.

• Review and interpret vendor-provided technical documentation including system architecture diagrams, data flow maps, hardening standards, patch management practices, and incident response capabilities with moderate oversight; apply growing knowledge of common IT environments (cloud, SaaS, on-prem, hybrid) to contextualize vendor risk.

• Map vendor technical controls to ISO 27001, SSAE 18/SOC 2, SOX ITGC, GDPR, NIST CSF/SP 800-53, and SentinelOne's internal security policies; deduce general gaps where technical implementation falls short of framework requirements and support closure efforts with vendors.
