About the Role:
CrowdStrike’s Sensor and Language Tooling team is part of the Detections Platform group. We provide custom programming languages and tools that other engineers at CrowdStrike use to define system behavior and event flows.
We are adding an additional senior engineer to work on internal compiler tooling written in Python, and detection systems implemented in our domain specific language. In addition to the compiler itself, the team owns a number of common pipeline and runtime features, and team members frequently work in multiple domains and languages.
CrowdStrike is a remote-first organization and you’ll be collaborating with developers in many locations. This role is in western Europe (UK or EU) but the team is spread between US, Europe and Australia. CrowdStrike has engineering employees around the world.

Design and implement new language and compiler features
Solicit and integrate feedback about design proposals and user needs
Debug cross-platform and integration issues, working closely with other teams to ensure safety and reliability
Design and write integration and end-to-end tests
Balance operating independently with regular user interviews and intra-team coordination
