CrowdStrike is seeking an Engineer III for the NG-SIEM Serverless Cell Platform team. You will help ensure the health, performance, and reliability of the LogScale cells, scale operations, and build automation that enables self-healing at scale.
You will work with distributed systems, participate in follow-the-sun rotations, and contribute to monitoring, incident response, and automation across cloud environments.
As an Engineer III on the NG-SIEM Serverless Cell Platform team, you will contribute to ensuring the health, performance, and reliability of cell infrastructure – operating the security industry’s largest SIEM platform while contributing to the automation and self-healing systems that enable it to scale seamlessly. The NG‑SIEM platform is built on a cell‑based architecture where each cell is a self‑contained LogScale cluster serving customer data. As you scale toward hundreds of petabytes per day, you will participate in the operational management of these cells through monitoring, incident response, capacity planning, and continuous improvement – while also developing automation systems that reduce toil and enable the fleet to self‑heal. You will participate in follow‑the‑sun on‑call rotations (8x7), perform version upgrades and scaling operations, optimize resource utilization, and write Go microservices that transform manual operational procedures into robust, automated workflows. You will join a distributed team of high‑ownership engineers who share a strong passion for our mission: to stop breaches.
What You’ll Need:
+ A passion for reliability engineering and operational excellence, with strong understanding of how large‑scale distributed systems behave under pressure;
+ 3+ years of experience in site reliability engineering, platform engineering, or infrastructure operations, with experience operating distributed systems;
+ Exposure to capacity planning and resource optimization for infrastructure;
+ Proficiency in at least one programming language (Go, Python, Java, or similar) for writing automation scripts and microservices;
+ Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, OCI, or GCP) including compute, storage, networking, and infrastructure‑as‑code (Terraform, Pulumi, or similar);
+ A can‑do attitude – you thrive collaborating in a team and are not afraid of taking on responsibilities;
+ Strong written and verbal communication skills for writing runbooks, incident reports, and collaborating with teams across time zones;
+ Willingness to learn how to balance operational stability with feature delivery needs.
If you meet most but not all of these qualifications, we still encourage you to apply.
Bonus Points:
+ Hands‑on experience building monitoring systems, defining SLIs/SLOs, creating dashboards, and implementing alerting;
+ Strong troubleshooting and root cause analysis skills across distributed system components;
+ Experience operating database infrastructure, log management platforms, search systems, or SIEM platforms at scale;
+ Track record of building automation that enables self‑healing infrastructure and reduces operational toil;
+ Experience with streaming platforms (Kafka or similar) and understanding of distributed data pipelines, backpressure, and partition management;
+ Familiarity with containerization and orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker, or similar);
+ Background in cybersecurity, security operations, or familiarity with security data workflows;
+ Interest in contributing to design docs, tech talks, and knowledge sharing within the team.
