CrowdStrike
Sr. Software Engineer - Cloud/XDR (Remote)
CrowdStrike, Sunnyvale, California, United States, 94087
#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
Have you spent hours arguing about tabs versus spaces? Does correlating and analyzing data at massive trillions-of-events-per-day scale excite you? Do you care deeply about cybersecurity and want to play an active role in helping to secure organizations from cyberattacks? Hi, we’d like to meet you.
We need a new senior engineer to join our growing XDR team and help us build the next generation of security management. You’ll be designing and developing world-class solutions which enable security analysts to be more effective and efficient at incident management, threat hunting, and response. You’ll surface threats in their environments by detecting malicious activity within data across multiple security domains using advanced correlation and ML. Sound like a challenge? It is! If that’s what you’re after, we’d love to hear from you. At CrowdStrike, we stop breaches.
We’re here to protect data, systems, technology – and, most importantly, the people they serve. Our cloud-based security is the first line of defense for the data we safeguard, and we are proud of that. Because we know how important our software is, we work fiercely to make sure that what we create works for everyone who needs it, every time.
We believe in one team, one fight, and our everyday work reflects that – our teams respect every member, and the people we work with care about the product and each other. We also understand that life is just as important as work, and treat time off and flexibility accordingly. We trust you to get the job done without having someone looking over your shoulder.
