About The Role
CrowdStrike Falcon Host is a two-component security product. One component is a “sensor”, which is a lightweight agent installed on client machines that observes system activity and recognizes malicious behavior, then provides on-box prevention capability and remote telemetry to the Falcon Host cloud. The cloud component aggregates sensor telemetry for each customer’s network, can correlate malicious behavior across multiple machines, and presents our customers’ with a prioritized summary of the threats detected in their environments.
This is a Software Tools Engineer role focused on the Sensor Developer Experience (SDX) engineering team that supports the development of CrowdStrike’s sensor. The tools engineer owns development of our build and test tools and works closely with the engineering teams. As a tools engineer, you will use your strong technical ability to drive visibility, quality and velocity across many different platforms, developing repeatable and scalable processes on all supported OS versions and SKUs.
