As a global leader in cybersecurity, CrowdStrike protects the people, processes and technologies that drive modern organizations. Since 2011, our mission hasn't changed — we're here to stop breaches, and we've redefined modern security with the world's most advanced AI-native platform. We work on large scale distributed systems, processing almost 3 trillion events per day and this traffic is growing daily. Our customers span all industries, and they count on CrowdStrike to keep their businesses running, their communities safe and their lives moving forward. We're also a mission-driven company.

About the Role: We are looking for talented engineers to help us create, enhance and operate the core systems that turn teams of analysts into a barrier to the actions of adversaries in the wild. The systems we build are relied upon 24/7/365 to identify malicious attacks and STOP BREACHES!

Design and implement reliable and performant solutions to enable continued scalability as we grow
Improve the effectiveness of service monitoring and proactively address issues
Take part in on-call rotations
Write automation to reduce operational load within the team
About Us: We are a growing team distributed across the United States and the United Kingdom. Slack is our primary communication method and much of our work is done in an asynchronous manner. We try to sync up as a team once daily and everyone on the team is always game to catch up in real-time when needed.

We value quick and proactive support to internal and external customers
We value the use of automation to maximize the capabilities and capacity of developers
We value the use of software to improve the speed at which analysts can work
We value products that are robust, efficient, scalable and maintainable
We look for all ways to provide our customers with a superior experience, even if those solutions are not software
We value letting the best idea prevail
Our ideal candidate will be comfortable working in a team delivering our core products, contributing technically, and working with relevant stakeholders. Our team values a culture of growth, collaboration, transparency and feedback; we want you to be as excited about these things as we are.
What You'll Need:
Professional experience with at least one of the following programming languages, Golang, Python, C++, Java, and a willingness to use Golang.
Comfort and experience working within the constraints of existing software applications and architectures
Practical experience building web services and data pipelines at scale
