About the role
- Cybersecurity titans are born when a new attack vector overwhelms existing defenses.
- When ransomware ran rampant, CrowdStrike emerged as the category leader for securing user endpoints.
- Today, AI has made account compromise the #1 cybercrime https://www.ic3.gov/AnnualReport/Reports/2024_IC3Report.pdf.
Responsibilities
- Ownership is everything here. You'll have deep knowledge across the stack and own large parts of the platform - from our AI detection pipeline to the product surfaces that MSPs and security teams rely on every day.
- Build and evolve our detection platform. Working closely with our founding team, you'll help design and build the systems that identify account compromise in real time - spanning signal ingestion, behavioral analysis, and AI-powered decisioning.
- Drive product quality end to end. Take problems from raw customer insight through to shipped, production features. You care about the full loop, not just your slice.
- Raise the technical bar. As a senior voice on a lean team, your instincts and opinions shape how we build. You'll establish patterns, push for correctness, and raise the quality of everything around you.
