Outside his vehicle he's the brainy tech guy.  Inside his vehicle, he's the combat monster.

Ours is just a Sentinel pilot, and it's been working pretty well for him. Except for when the Dark Eldar realized they could try to snipe him out of the open-topped vehicle and nearly killed him. That aside, it's been quite nice. He pilots his ATST ripoff and doesn't afraid of anything.

Yeah, I notice there's no equipment or upgrades for the frankly dozen sentinel variants. Or much in the way of vehicle upgrades at all, actually,

That's why RPGs have the GM, because no rulebook has enough room to cater to everything. Perhaps a Logistics test rated Rare for enivromental sealing could make the Sentinel not be Open-Topped anymore.

Yeah, except we know they're coming in another book, so it's sort of pointless to draw up rules for x/y/z when we know that an 'official' version is most likely in the pipeline somewhere.  I grant, my fan stats for tanks ran much longer then anticipated, and indeed, a lot longer then FFG originally announced,

 

Though perhaps there would be more room without things like hunting lance that have no real use, as we have no rules for rough riders in the book, either.

The rules for removing open-top from Sentinels are in the book though. In the Sentinel's special rules section, it states that you can switch out the enhanced motive systems trait for the reinforced armour and/or the enclosed vehicle traits. And that if the sentinel has the enclosed vehicle trait, it loses its open-topped trait.
