We work on large scale distributed systems, processing almost 3 trillion events per day. We have 3.44 PB of RAM deployed across our fleet of C* servers - and this traffic is growing daily. Our customers span all industries, and they count on CrowdStrike to keep their businesses running, their communities safe and their lives moving forward. We’re also a mission-driven company. We cultivate an inclusive culture that gives every CrowdStriker both the flexibility and autonomy to own their careers. We’re always looking to add talented CrowdStrikers to the team who have limitless passion, a relentless focus on innovation and a fanatical commitment to our customers, our community and each other. Ready to join a mission that matters? The future of cybersecurity starts with you.

About The Role:

Help us protect CrowdStrike and its customers from the most advanced threats by securing our applications. CrowdStrike’s Product Security team breaks the mold of traditional internal security, and focuses on active threats to CrowdStrike’s products. As an Application Security Engineer you will dig into web applications, find design and implementation flaws, help our product engineers fix defects, and play a role in shipping secure code. You’ll hunt for security defects and play a part in fixing those defects rather than just reporting them and hoping for the best. Additionally, you will be involved in cross-cutting projects to further harden internal systems and processes against active and emerging threats.

What You’ll Do:

Join engineering teams working on applications as a security expert and advisor, influencing the design and capabilities of our products
Create, maintain, and mature threat models to drive security architecture review and eliminate threat surface area
Review application source code, looking for security defects and risk
Attack applications throughout the Secure Development LifeCycle
Work with developers to help them understand defects, risks, design weaknesses, etc. and implement proven solutions
Build integrated tools and automation to make life easier for you, your team, and our engineering partners
Drive response efforts to our bug bounty program, hunt for similar issues across the platform, and improve the security of our applications

We’re hiring this role at multiple levels, so we still want to hear from you even if you think you can’t do all of that – or if you can do more!

What You’ll Need:

Self-motivated to identify security defects and engage with engineering teams to find solutions
A deep understanding of how software products are created and shipped in Agile/DevOps like environments
Experience with threat model framework(s), especially using STRIDE
Proven experience in code review for apps built with Go (Golang), Python, Rust, or JavaScript (emphasis on browser-side)
A working knowledge of secure configuration of cloud-native and containerized apps in multiple Cloud environments (GCP, Azure, AWS)
Experience using and/or maintaining commercially available AppSec tools like SAST, DAST, IAST, and ASPM suites
A solid understanding of common software weaknesses that impact cloud and web applications (not just the OWASP Top 10) and demonstrable experience in application penetration testing
Examples of collaborating across technical teams: asking technical questions, challenging assumptions, getting or providing context for decisions, etc.
Demonstrable experience developing/maintaining automation for application security tasks and defect identification

Bonus Points:

These skills are not required and/or we’re willing to teach them, but they are helpful.

Experience working at extremely large scale
Comfortable with ambiguity and capable of determining direction
Example(s) of having a positive working relationship with product engineers (software product development experience is a huge bonus)
Deep knowledge of Docker and Kubernetes (k8s)
Experience with WebAssembly (WASM)
Engaged in providing security enhancements to open source projects
Experience in mentoring, coaching, and/or improving team culture

Education/Certifications:

Technical security certifications or academic background are a plus.
