About the role
CrowdStrike is seeking a senior backend engineer for the Spotlight platform to design, build, and operate cloud-native services at global scale. You will focus on distributed systems, reliability, and cloud architecture across AWS and GCP, handling large volumes of streaming data and AI-assisted workflows. The role requires strong experience in Golang/Java, distributed architectures, and hands-on cloud services plus observability.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
