About the Role:
CrowdStrike is looking to hire an experienced Engineer to the Data Services team to help us take our database systems to the next level. We're looking for a highly technical, hands-on engineer who loves working with data plane services like Cassandra, ElasticSearch/OpenSearch, Kafka, Redis, Valkey, MySQL, and PostgreSQL, and who is comfortable building automation around large-scale cloud-based critical systems. We review candidate CVs with an eye on achievements – what you've accomplished in the past tells us the most about what you can do for us in the future.

Focus area: OpenSearch and ElasticSearch

What You'll Do:

• Maintain a deep understanding of the data components – including Cassandra, ElasticSearch/OpenSearch, Kafka, Zookeeper, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, Valkey, Memcache, Pulsar, and SQS – and use that understanding to operate and automate properly configured clusters.

• Understand operating databases in Kubernetes and managing container images.

• Develop infrastructure services to support the CrowdStrike engineering team's pursuit of a full DevOps model.

• Work closely with Engineering and Customer Support to troubleshoot time-sensitive production issues, regardless of when they occur.

• Keep petabytes of critical business data safe, secure, and available.

What You'll Need:

• Configuration management (Chef)

• Scripting in Python and Bash

• Experience with large-scale datastores using technologies like Cassandra, ElasticSearch/OpenSearch, Kafka, Zookeeper, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, Valkey, Memcache, Pulsar, and SQS

• Experience with large-scale, business-critical Linux environments

• Experience operating within the cloud, preferably Amazon Web Services, GCP, and OCI

• Proven ability to work effectively with both local and remote teams

• Track record of making sound decisions, particularly when it matters most

• Excellent communication skills, both verbal and written

• A combination of confidence and independence with the prudence to know when to ask for help from the team

• Bachelor's degree in an applicable field, such as CS, CIS, or Engineering
