Job Details

#WeAreCrowdStrike and our mission is to stop breaches. As a global leader in cybersecurity, our team changed the game. Since our inception, our market leading cloud-native platform has offered unparalleled protection against the most sophisticated cyberattacks. We work on large scale distributed systems, processing over 1 trillion events a day with a petabyte of RAM deployed in our Cassandra clusters - and this traffic is growing daily. We're looking for people with limitless passion, a relentless focus on innovation and a fanatical commitment to developing and shaping our cybersecurity platform. Consistently recognized as a top workplace, CrowdStrike is committed to cultivating an inclusive, remote-first culture that offers people the autonomy and flexibility to balance the needs of work and life while taking their career to the next level. Interested in working for a company that sets the standard and leads with integrity? Join us on a mission that matters - one team, one fight.

About the Role:

Organizations are scaling their data environments at an increasing rate, leaving massive gaps in visibility into activity on endpoints, in particular, knowing what endpoints are there to begin with! These evolving, heterogeneous environments are immensely difficult to protect because there's no single-pane-of-glass visibility clarifying what machines (both virtual and physical) comprise the environment to begin with. Our team is looking to hire a Sr. Cloud Engineer to join our Falcon Exposure Management team. You'd be a part of the engineering and delivery of an infinitely scalable and instantly deployable real-time application that allows companies to quickly identify and eliminate malicious or noncompliant activity by providing unmatched visibility into the devices, containers, systems, users and applications in their network.

You'd be joining a team of backend-focused developers who work primarily in Golang, Kafka, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Docker/Kubernetes, and AWS-native services, making use of distributed/micro-services based architecture to build features for our highly available cloud SaaS platform, Falcon.

What You'll Do:
  • Lead the engineering efforts and architectural design of an application meant to scale to billions of processed data points
  • Work with and mentor a team of highly skilled and dedicated engineers
  • Work collaboratively with members across multiple teams in order to define cross-functional technical features
  • Drive the design and implementation of the main business data flows
  • You'll use: Golang, Kafka, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Redis, AWS, Git, Docker, Kubernetes


What You'll Need:
  • 7+ years of production-level experience in building, delivering, and maintaining distributed services architecture at scale
  • Bachelor's Degree in Computer Science or relevant experience in Data Structures, Algorithms and Distributed Systems
  • Ability to design scalable and resilient microservice-based architectures, including clean REST APIs and streaming communication channels
  • Strong programming skills either in Go or in Java, C++, Node.js or similar, with willingness to use Go.
  • Deep understand of multithreading, concurrency, and parallel processing
  • A thorough understanding of engineering best practices from appropriate testing paradigms to effective peer code
  • Cloud Infrastructure Knowledge: AWS or Google Cloud Platform / Azure
  • Team player skills - we embrace collaborating as a team as much as possible
  • Lead and Mentor junior team members with task detailing and directing execution for software development.
  • Communication with product management to understand and execute requirements.
  • Collaborate with multi-functional team in various physical locations


Bonus Points:
  • Cassandra, Kafka, Elasticsearch, SQL, Redis
  • Experience with Scrum/Agile development methodologies
