Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you.
About the Role:
We’re building the next generation of cloud security at CrowdStrike, and we need passionate engineers to help us revolutionize threat detection. As a Software Engineer on the cloud detection engine team, you’ll architect and implement a cutting-edge detection system that processes billions of events across multi-cloud environments. You’ll work on implementing our innovative technologies like custom query languages, event orchestration systems, and advanced correlation engines to detect sophisticated cloud-based threats. Collaborate with world-class security researchers to transform their expertise into scalable detection capabilities that protect organizations worldwide. Our team operates at the intersection of distributed systems, data engineering, and security analytics, building a composable and modular architecture that enables continuous innovation. If you’re excited about designing elegant systems that can identify real-world threats, processing complex event patterns with minimal latency, and working on challenges that directly impact the security of thousands of organizations, we want to hear from you. Join us in building the technology that stops breaches before they happen.
