Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you. About the Role: We’re building a welcoming & flexible team that prizes collaboration over competition, one which provides opportunities to learn new skills, mentor junior and senior developers and contribute to the direction of both the team & the products for which we’re responsible. This is a high trust environment where we allow team members to manage their own time, take holidays as they need it and reward them with competitive salaries and equity. The Falcon endpoint agent is able to react in near-real-time to changes in the threat landscape, and underpinning this is the ability of the endpoint agent to quickly query our cloud for new information. This system operates within tight latency and response time constraints at a scale matched by few other environments, and the scale is only growing. CrowdStrike is seeking a Software Developer in Test for our Detections Platform team. This critical role in the organization will be responsible for validating that the cloud-side software that provides information to the endpoint agent, as well as the endpoint-side code that issues queries and incorporates the responses, is behaving as expected.

You’ll work in an environment where quality is the company culture. Come use cutting edge tools and technologies as well as tried and true ones. Work on: verifying key features and functionality that spans our processing, data and customer facing application layers to ensure it’s able to support low-latency prevention of malware, manage thousands of events per second, query across terabytes of data and deliver accurate information to the endpoint - which also processes the data properly. This role is hybrid, requiring 2-3 days per week on-site at one of the posted locations What You'll Do: Both build stuff and break stuff! Verify component, system integration and application level features and functionality to ensure our reliability, accuracy and performance reaches our standards for quality.
