About the Role:

CrowdStrike is looking to hire a Senior Engineer to the Fed Cloud team to help us take our database systems to the next level. Fed Cloud will bring the suite of advanced capabilities of the Falcon platform to myriad state and federal level government agencies. We’re looking for a highly-technical, hands-on engineer, who loves to work with data plane services like Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Kafka and Hadoop, and is comfortable building automation around large-scale cloud-based critical systems within the gov cloud environment. We’ll be looking at candidate CVs with an eye on achievement – what you’ve accomplished in the past tells us the most about what you can do for us in the future.

What You’ll Do:

• Maintain a deep understanding of the data components – including Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Kafka, Zookeeper, Hadoop, and Spark, and use that understanding to operate and automate properly configured clusters.

• Work with Engineering to replicate and modify data store capabilities in isolated cloud environments

• Develop infrastructure services to support the CrowdStrike engineering team’s pursuit of a full devops model.

• Work closely with Engineering and Customer Support to troubleshoot time-sensitive production issues, regardless of when they happen.

• Keep petabytes of critical business data safe, secure, and available.

What You’ll Need:

• Experience with large scale data stores using technologies like Cassandra, ElasticSearch, Kafka, Zookeeper, Hadoop, and Spark.

• Experience with large-scale, business-critical Linux environments

• Experience operating within the cloud, preferably Amazon Web Services

• Proven ability to work effectively with both local and remote teams

• Track record of making great decisions, particularly when it matters most

• Rock solid communication skills, verbal and written

• A combination of confidence and independence… with the prudence to know when to ask for help from the rest of the team

• Experience in the information security industry preferred, but not required

• Bachelor’s degree in an applicable field, such as CS, CIS or Engineering

Bonus Points:

• IAT Level 1 Certification (Security+ or equivalent)

• Experience with security-related functions in classified or air-gapped infrastructure

• Experience with security-related functions in classified cloud environments such as C2S or Azure Government Secret
