The role combines deep technical expertise in Linux systems with security research, requiring candidates to develop solutions for detecting and preventing malicious behavior. As part of the Content Development team, you'll be responsible for strategic research into new Falcon Sensor capabilities, focusing on OS security/internals for major supported platforms, with a particular emphasis on Linux.
The position involves working on the "sensor" component of CrowdStrike's Falcon Host security product - a driver that monitors system activity, provides on-box prevention, and sends telemetry to the cloud. You'll be developing core features that interact with fundamental OS subsystems including file system, memory, process, and networking.
Working in an Agile environment, you'll collaborate with a distributed team to design and implement production-level solutions.
