About the Role:

Our Fusion Product is on the hunt for a Senior-to-Principal (Level 7) backend software Engineer to build out platform products which provide our external users with core orchestration and workflow capabilities within their own environments, including (but not limited to) automated threat remediation.

 

Falcon Fusion – a core ‘tier one’ offering in our Flagship Platform, Falcon – is the Falcon product used by customers to automate breach remediations within their environments. It also serves as the runtime of apps build by our Foundry Module, and is 'dogfooded' by us internally to automate other workflows and speed up development. With these many varied uses, it can be responsible for processing anywhere from 500M to 10B+ events/day and is in use by essentially every single customer of the Falcon Platform.

 

This role is for an experienced backend microservices developer adept with cloud engineering principles. Your passion and meticulous attention to performance, reliability and scalability will be key ingredients to your success here at CrowdStrike.


What You'll Do:

  • Build highly fault tolerant Golang microservices to add features and functionality to our Fusion product and its supporting ecosystem

  • Support ultra-high volume Kafka event pipelines managing our customer workflows

  • Work with industry-leading technologies like Apache Kafka, Cassandra, Elasticsearch, Redis and more

  • Work on cross-team platform-level initiatives and projects

  • Troubleshoot critical production issues and implement solutions


What You'll Need:

  • Experienced building streaming platforms at scale (Note: We process over a trillion events per day)

  • 7-10(+) years of relevant work experience building backend software with a SaaS delivery model

  • 4+ years of recent experience building an event-driven, microservices-oriented architecture

  • Expert knowledge of any of the following backend languages: Go, Scala, Java, Node.js or Python

  • Proven expertise in building distributed systems, micro services, REST APIs

  • Production experience with commercial clouds (AWS, Azure, GCP)

  • BS/MS degree in Computer Science or related field or equivalent work experience

  • Developing applications using SQL and No-SQL databases


Bonus Points:

  • Contributed to the open source community (GitHub, Stack Overflow, blogging)

  • Master’s degree in computer science or related field

  • Golang experience

  • Prior experience with cybersecurity

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
