Job Description 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 proud to work for a mission-driven company leveraging AI to transform the way we work. CrowdStrikers drive their careers through flexibility and autonomy while also being expected to contribute to a culture of responsible AI adoption, experimentation, and innovation. We use an AI-first mindset as a force multiplier to proactively and continuously accelerate execution, build expertise, uncover insights, and solve complex problems. We're always looking to add talented CrowdStrikers to the team who have limitless passion, a relentless focus on innovation and a fanatical commitment to our customers, our community and each other. Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you. About the Role: Our mission is to make all of our customers' security-relevant data continuously available for automated detection and response, threat hunting, and other Falcon use cases. To enable this, the systems behind NG-SIEM are growing to accommodate >100 PB of event and action data ingested every day, up to 10 years of retention, and dozens of millions of queries per hour across large sections of the data stored. Ideal candidate for this Senior Engineer has deep expertise in large-scale distributed/control systems (intelligent placement, auto balancing, autoscaling) and the ability to go deep into the underlying data platform (LogScale) - ingestion, storage, and query internals - to connect scaling decisions to real system behavior in a large multi-tenant environment. We run a multi-tenant platform where many customers share a common pool of infrastructure. The core challenge is a two-sided optimization: deliver the best performance for every customer while achieving the best overall resource utilization (minimal wasted capacity, maximum density). This role is hybrid, on-site at one of the posted locations: Sunnyvale, CA; Redmond, WA; New York City; or Austin, TX with a strong preference to candidates in Austin, TX. What You'll Do: Intelligent Customer Placement - Decide which part of the fleet each customer lands on, bin packing tenants efficiently while reserving enough headroom so everyone gets the capacity they're entitled to. Auto balancing - Continuously rebalance customers across shared infrastructure as load shifts, protecting each customer's performance while keeping the fleet healthy. Autoscaling - Automatically add or remove capacity as demand changes, so the fleet grows and shrinks with real usage instead of being manually provisioned. Data-Driven Decisions - Use real-time per-tenant usage (e.g., memory, storage, throughput, query cost) to drive placement and balancing. End-to-End System Depth - Go deep into the underlying data platform (how data is ingested, stored, cached, and queried) to understand why a placement or scaling decision helps or hurts, and feed that back into the models. Operational Rigor - Operate what you build, and treat customer-impacting incidents with the same rigor as feature work; reliability and static stability are forcing functions for design, not a phase bolted on after launch. Feature Delivery - Deliver key parts of our systems as an individual contributor while leading the team to solve ambiguous problems, and move the scalability of our LogScale engine to the next level. Technical Strategy & Alignment - Engage with other technical leads and principal engineers to keep our technical strategy coherent across the LogScale platform and move our product mission forward. Communication - As a remote-first company, bring excellent verbal and written communication skills when working with teams across the globe. What You'll Need: Must be a U.S. Citizen or US Permanent Resident. 7+ years of experience designing, implementing, and maintaining multiple software products/systems/releases, preferably in a SaaS delivery model, across all phases of the development lifecycle, and across multiple software stacks; 4+ years of experience as an engineer in a force-multiplying position (delivery through others); Current hands-on experience as an engineer (3+ years) owning a distributed system that handled tens of billions of requests per day or more than 1 PB of data per day; History of significant and continued impact on customer experience and business results; Demonstrated track record of operational excellence when operating services that span many components across several geographical regions; Experience working with and growing strong engineers within remote teams across geographies and cultures; Ability to communicate and articulate crisply Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business outcomes. Bonus Points: Hands on development experience in Golang and Scala. Solid grounding in the technology of at least one cloud environment (AWS, Azure, GCP). Expertise with Kafka.

We're always looking to add talented CrowdStrikers to the team who have limitless passion, a relentless focus on innovation and a fanatical commitment to our customers, our community and each other. Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you. About the Role: CrowdStrike Falcon is the industry standard in cloud native cybersecurity and threat hunting, processing trillions of events per day. As a Principal SRE, you will operate at the intersection of our Core Platform and Embedded Reliability charters: building the foundational libraries, services, and tooling that every product group depends on, while embedding directly with product engineering teams and their leadership to drive reliability outcomes at scale. While we embrace the SRE moniker, at CrowdStrike it means something far more service oriented and engineering heavy than traditional operations. This is hands on systems engineering - writing production code, re architecting critical systems, and eliminating entire classes of failure - not ticket management. It is far and away our most self driven and autonomous backend engineering role, with the freedom to move up, down, and laterally across the stack as needed. You'll join a group with bottom up visibility and ownership of a fast expanding codebase (including AI based Detection & Response) and a far reaching mandate for service resiliency. Several key feature additions and critical re architecture initiatives are underway: deploying core services to additional cloud providers, modularizing into reusable components, improving core libraries and frameworks, maturing observability tooling (tracing, profiling, alerting, SLOs), and automating away manual toil across all of the above. Recent examples of the team's work include introducing adaptive concurrency into our core Kafka library to implement flow control that protects database performance, resolving critical issues in leader election libraries, and building infrastructure as code tooling that eliminated manual deployment processes. At the Senior Engineer level, your influence is organizational. Product engineers and engineering leaders will come to you for guidance on architectural decisions because you've earned credibility through hands on work and delivered results. You will shape architectural choices that affect every feature development team and provide shared architectural components leveraged throughout the Falcon Platform - including Unified Search, Protobuf libraries, and other shared tier infrastructure. Why This Role Matters: Our customers depend on us to protect their businesses from sophisticated threats, and reliability isn't optional - it's fundamental to our mission. Your work directly impacts whether organizations around the world can defend themselves against cyberattacks. You'll work on problems that matter, at a scale few companies can match, with the autonomy to make real architectural decisions. This is a hybrid role, with employees typically working 2 to 3 days per week in the office. Offices are in Midtown Manhattan, NY; Redmond, WA; Sunnyvale, CA; and Austin, TX. What You'll Do: Partner with engineering leadership across multiple product groups to define and drive multi year reliability roadmaps. Design and implement architectural improvements to services, libraries, and platforms that impact teams across all of CrowdStrike. Develop and maintain services that meet aggressive reliability and scalability demands. Extend and build new libraries for cross cutting concerns spanning CrowdStrike's cloud platform, which comprises hundreds of libraries and services. Lead initiatives around reliability, scalability, performance, and cost efficiency in large scale distributed systems. Establish foundational observability practices: ensure teams instrument services properly, react to signals effectively, and leverage observability to drive automation such as continuous delivery. Define and implement service level objectives and error budgets that drive real decision making and prioritization. Lead performance and cost optimization efforts: profiling, bottleneck analysis, capacity planning, and cloud efficiency improvements. Conduct resilience engineering: chaos experiments, failure injection, failure modeling, and designing for graceful degradation. Design and implement automation and infrastructure as code to improve infrastructure reliability and eliminate manual toil. Provide technical leadership during complex incidents and ensure follow through on retrospectives with concrete improvements that eliminate entire classes of failures. Identify opportunities to extract common patterns into shared libraries and tools, or partner with platform teams on improvements benefiting multiple product groups. Continuously re evaluate our products to improve architecture, knowledge models, developer and user experience, performance, and stability. Drive strategic technical decisions and influence infrastructure and operational improvements across the organization. Mentor and coach engineers, raising the technical IQ of the team and driving architectural standards across the org. Use and give back to the open source community; evangelize software engineering best practices, especially as they pertain to Go. Brainstorm, define, and build collaboratively with members across multiple teams as an energetic self starter who owns and is accountable for deliverables. What You'll Need: 10+ years of experience building and operating distributed systems and service oriented backends at scale. 5+ years developing microservices for a SaaS product in a modern backend language (Go, Java, Scala, Kotlin, Python, Node.js). Expert level proficiency in at least one programming language, with expert level Go or demonstrated ability and willingness to reach expert level in Go. Deep understanding of distributed systems: consensus algorithms, replication, consistency models, failure modes, and scalability patterns. Proven experience scaling backend systems - sharding, partitioning, horizontal scaling, capacity planning, and performance optimization are second nature. Deep understanding of multi threading, concurrency, and parallel processing. Track record of making impactful architectural decisions at organizational scope and seeing them through to production. Strong systems thinking and the ability to influence without direct authority across organizational boundaries. Thorough command of engineering best practices: appropriate testing paradigms, effective peer code review, and resilient architecture. Ability to thrive in a fast paced, test driven, collaborative, and iterative environment; strong team player orientation. A desire to ship code and a love of seeing your bits run in production. Degree in Computer Science, or commensurate experience in data structures, algorithms, and distributed systems. Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business outcomes. Bonus Points: Experience driving reliability improvements in organizations with hundreds or thousands of microservices. Deep knowledge of Kubernetes or other large scale orchestration systems. Hands on experience with AWS, Cassandra, Kafka, Elasticsearch/OpenSearch, or similar large scale distributed technologies. Experience with Google Cloud Platform (GCP). Experience with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). Experience delivering or operating services across multiple cloud providers, including multi cloud abstraction layers, portability, and cloud agnostic tooling. Track record of building internal platforms, developer platforms, or tools that other engineers depend on. Experience with infrastructure cost optimization at scale. Background in performance engineering: profiling, optimization, and identifying system bottlenecks. Experience with chaos engineering or resilience testing practices. History of establishing SLO/SLI frameworks and error budgets in production environments. Contributions to the open source community (GitHub, Stack Overflow, technical blogging).

This role is hybrid, on-site at one of the posted locations: Sunnyvale, CA; Redmond, WA; New York City; or Austin, TX with a strong preference to candidates in Austin, TX. What You'll Do: Intelligent Customer Placement - Decide which part of the fleet each customer lands on, bin packing tenants efficiently while reserving enough headroom so everyone gets the capacity they're entitled to. Auto balancing - Continuously rebalance customers across shared infrastructure as load shifts, protecting each customer's performance while keeping the fleet healthy. Autoscaling - Automatically add or remove capacity as demand changes, so the fleet grows and shrinks with real usage instead of being manually provisioned. Data-Driven Decisions - Use real-time per-tenant usage (e.g., memory, storage, throughput, query cost) to drive placement and balancing. End-to-End System Depth - Go deep into the underlying data platform (how data is ingested, stored, cached, and queried) to understand why a placement or scaling decision helps or hurts, and feed that back into the models. Operational Rigor - Operate what you build, and treat customer-impacting incidents with the same rigor as feature work; reliability and static stability are forcing functions for design, not a phase bolted on after launch. Feature Delivery - Deliver key parts of our systems as an individual contributor while leading the team to solve ambiguous problems, and move the scalability of our LogScale engine to the next level. Technical Strategy & Alignment - Engage with other technical leads and principal engineers to keep our technical strategy coherent across the LogScale platform and move our product mission forward. Communication - As a remote-first company, bring excellent verbal and written communication skills when working with teams across the globe. What You'll Need: Must be a U.S. Citizen or US Permanent Resident. 12+ years of experience designing, implementing, and maintaining multiple software products/systems/releases, preferably in a SaaS delivery model, across all phases of the development lifecycle, and across multiple software stacks; 4+ years of experience as an engineer in a force-multiplying position (delivery through others); Current hands-on experience as an engineer (3+ years) owning a distributed system that handled tens of billions of requests per day or more than 1 PB of data per day; History of significant and continued impact on customer experience and business results; Demonstrated track record of operational excellence when operating services that span many components across several geographical regions; Experience working with and growing strong engineers within remote teams across geographies and cultures; Ability to communicate and articulate crisply Proven experience utilizing AI technologies to enhance decision-making, streamline workflows and processes, improve efficiency and drive business outcomes Bonus Points: Hands on development experience in Golang and Scala. Solid grounding in the technology of at least one cloud environment (AWS, Azure, GCP). Expertise with Kafka. Exposure to or experience with Log Management or cybersecurity products.

Job Description 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 proud to work for a mission-driven company leveraging AI to transform the way we work. CrowdStrikers drive their careers through flexibility and autonomy while also being expected to contribute to a culture of responsible AI adoption, experimentation, and innovation. We use an AI-first mindset as a force multiplier to proactively and continuously accelerate execution, build expertise, uncover insights, and solve complex problems. We're always looking to add talented CrowdStrikers to the team who have limitless passion, a relentless focus on innovation and a fanatical commitment to our customers, our community and each other. Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you. About the Role: Our mission is to make all of our customers' security-relevant data continuously available for automated detection and response, threat hunting, and other Falcon use cases. To enable this, the systems behind NG-SIEM are growing to accommodate >100 PB of event and action data ingested every day, up to 10 years of retention, and dozens of millions of queries per hour across large sections of the data stored. Ideal candidate for this Senior Engineer II has deep expertise in large-scale distributed/control systems (intelligent placement, auto balancing, autoscaling) and the ability to go deep into the underlying data platform (LogScale) - ingestion, storage, and query internals - to connect scaling decisions to real system behavior in a large multi-tenant environment. We run a multi-tenant platform where many customers share a common pool of infrastructure. The core challenge is a two-sided optimization: deliver the best performance for every customer while achieving the best overall resource utilization (minimal wasted capacity, maximum density).
